Zusammenfassung:This article discusses some questions raised by Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos (2004) in "Old Theses, New Data: A Methodological Analysis," published in Dados -- Revista de Ciencias Sociais. The paper focuses particularly on an important methodological discussion, namely the measurement of political events. Two topics in the party system are specifically explored: the dispersion of Congressional voting & power (fragmentation rates) & territorial dispersion of voting (partisan nationalization rates).
