Mobilizing for Elections: Patronage and Political Machines in Southeast Asia

---

Politicians in Southeast Asia, as in many other regions, win elections by distributing cash, goods, jobs, projects, and other benefits to supporters, but the ways in which they do this vary tremendously, both across and within countries. Mobilizing for Elections presents a new framework for analyzing variation in patronage democracies, focusing on distinct forms of patronage and different networks through which it is distributed. The book draws on an extensive, multi-country, multi-year research effort involving interactions with hundreds of politicians and vote brokers, as well as surveys of voters and political campaigners across the region. Chapters explore how local machines in the Philippines, ad hoc election teams in Indonesia, and political parties in Malaysia pursue distinctive clusters of strategies of patronage distribution – what the authors term electoral mobilization regimes. In doing so, the book shows how and why patronage politics varies, and how it works on the ground. Offers a new framework for understanding how and why patronage politics differs in types of resources and modes of distribution. Draws on a multi-year research effort involving hundreds of research collaborators across Southeast Asia. Examines both cross-national and subnational variations in electoral mobilization strategies in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.
