          Translated abstract

          The aim of this article is to fill some gaps in research on the Brazilian electoral arena. The current literature, by neglecting the study of party organization, ends up overlooking fundamental questions for understanding how the electoral process works. This study addressed two questions: How do Brazilian parties work? What is the impact of party organization on a party's decision to launch or withhold a candidate in a given election? We intend to show that the parties have more life than many studies on our political system tend to show. This partisan life helps understand one of the central aspects of the electoral arena, that is, how pre-election coordination occurs.

          Translated abstract

          Dans cet article, le but est de combler certaines lacunes dans les études de la scène électorale brésilienne. La littérature habituelle, en laissant de côté l'analyse de l'organisation des partis, néglige certaines questions de fond sur le fonctionnement du processus électoral. On s'efforce ici de répondre à deux questions: Comment les partis brésiliens fonctionnent-ils? Quel est l'impact de l'organisation des partis sur leur décision de proposer un nom de candidat à une élection donnée? On cherche ici à montrer que les partis ont plus de vitalité que ce que la plupart des études sur le système politique brésilien estiment. La vie des partis aide à mieux comprendre l'un des aspects principaux de la scène électorale, c'est-à-dire comment se fait la coordination pré-électorale.
