Resumen

La incorporación política es un concepto ampliamente utilizado pero rara vez definido en la ciencia política. Este artículo presenta un análisis conceptual de la incorporación política, proponiendo una conceptualización basada en cinco atributos: la existencia de un actor excluido, beneficios sostenidos de políticas para este actor, representación partidaria, representación corporativista y representación personalista del actor excluido. Utilizando una estructura conceptual mixta, argumentamos que las dos primeras dimensiones son necesarias en combinación con al menos una forma de representación. Con base en esta conceptualización, discutimos diversas variaciones conceptuales y de proceso de la incorporación política y las ilustramos con casos históricos y contemporáneos de América Latina. Este ejercicio resalta las ventajas de una conceptualización clara y explícita para identificar nuevas instancias de incorporación. En términos sustantivos, el artículo también proporciona una herramienta para la agenda de investigación actual sobre lo que se ha denominado la segunda ola de incorporación en América Latina.
