          Translated abstract

          This article analyzes a specific type of affirmative action focusing on women, i.e., a quota policy for legislative candidacies, taking the Brazilian experience as the empirical base. Using a comparison with similar approaches to this policy and their results in different countries, the paper evaluates the impacts on legislative elections in Brazil since 1996, when such quotas were adopted in the country for the first time. After concluding that the policy has had little impact on the election pattern of women candidates in Brazil (unlike the experience in other countries), the article discusses possible explanatory factors.

          Translated abstract

          Dans cet article, on analyse une espèce particulière d’action affirmative orientée vers les femmes, celui de la politique de quotas en vue des instances législatives, avec pour base empirique l’expérience brésilienne. À partir d’une comparaison entre des formes d’adoption de cette politique et de leurs résultats dans différents pays, le texte cherche à évaluer leur impact sur les élections législatives au Brésil depuis 1996, lorsque les quotas ont été mis en place pour la première fois. On y vérifie une faible répercussion de cette politique sur le modèle d’élection des femmes brésiliennes, contrairement à ce qu’on trouve dans d’autres pays, et on cherche à identifier les facteurs possibles justifiant ces résultats.
