Resumo: This article discusses the varying effects of quota systems, as they emerge from a scenario of women’s increased inroads into politics in Latin America, expressed in the increased number of women in elected offices, the implementation of quota systems and increased presence of the issue of gender equality in political agendas. The character of the electoral system, as based on “open” or “closed” lists; the absence or presence of a norm of a compulsory competitive position for women within political parties and political parties’ commitment to quota policies are the crucial factors that determine variation.

Entre os fatores determinantes para os resultados destas políticas estão: a natureza do sistema eleitoral, com base em listas abertas ou listas fechadas; a existência ou não da norma de obrigatoriedade de posição competitiva das mulheres na lista partidária; e, finalmente, o compromisso partidário, no qual as políticas de cotas estão inseridas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2001-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X200100010001310.1590/S0104-026X2001000100013Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 9 No. 1 (2001); 225Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 9 Núm. 1 (2001); 225Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 9 n. 1 (2001); 2251806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2001000100013/8911Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHtun, Mala2019-09-30T08:45:24Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/9704Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:37:37.997984Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
