Website I enjoy visiting

Since I have been studying Political Science, a website that has helped me a lot is SERVEL (www. https://historico.servel.cl/). It is the official website of the Electoral Service's historical registry and contains all the electoral information since the return to democracy. A friend told me thath it was an interesting page to find electoral data.





It has helped me a lot to understand the changes in the party system, specially with the 2017 parliamentary elections. It has also helped me to understand the process of weakening of the traditional parties, tracking the loss of votes from many elections. For political science, this data is very important, because it allows to find evidence of voters' preferences at a specific time.




I like this website because it is easy to use, it is very intuitive and you can see the percentages of participation, the vote by party and by coalition. For the plebiscite and the last electiones, I have used it a lot! I reccomend the SERVEL website to find electoral data in all types of elections. It is very useful for analysis of political coalitions and political parties.

I can use it to connect to my classes, to response mails and messages I received from teachers and classmates, and many other things that isn’t related with the university. For example, the cellphone helps me to cook, because I can find recipes when I don’t know what to cook for lunch.  The cellphone helps me a lot in the day. Without it, it's possible that I can't connect to my classes, or I can't know what to cook some days neither. I recommend use it, because it's makes life much easier and it's so useful. To watch a movie, to listen a song, to read a paper, to call friends or just to look for some information you don't know, cellphones helps a lot w...

HOW CAN POLITICAL SCIENCE MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE

Political Science is a discipline that studies political phenomena. Although it may seem very academic, it has practical implications because these phenomena generate consequences on the people of the States. Topics such as democracies, dictatorships, human and social rights, citizen participation or constituent process are very important for political science, because it studies the cases where the best and worst experiences are currently concentrated. Particularly, as in Chile we are in the middle of a constituent process, political science could contribute a lot to build a more democratic, inclusive and participatory constitution. I hope to be able to contribute in the future to analyze the consequences that the new constitution will  bring to the people of Chile, researching if it really helped to improve their quality of life or not. Anyway, as a militant of a political party, political science can help me to think public policies to be presented by Convergencia Social in the ...
