چکیده

مشارکت در انتخابات به‌عنوان یکی از ارکان اصلیِ مردم‌سالاری، سرمایه اجتماعی دولت‌ها را افزایش داده و بنیان‌های قانون‌مداری در جامعه را استوار می‌سازد. انواع مشارکت سیاسی برخاسته از شرایط اجتماعی و فرهنگی‌ای است که افراد در آن زیست می‌کنند و از این‌رو قومیت را باید به‌عنوان یک متغیر فرهنگی مؤثر بر کنش‌گری‌های افراد جامعه، از جمله مشارکت اتخاباتی لحاظ نمود. بنابراین در مقاله حاضر به مشارکت سیاسی در بین اقوام استان فارس با تأکید بر انتخابات مجلس شورای اسلامی پرداخته شده است. با توجه به موضوع، منطق و هدف، در این پژوهش از رویکرد کمی و روش پیمایش استفاده شده و جامعه آماری تحقیق دربرگیرنده 600 نفر از شهروندان 18 سال به بالای سه شهر شیراز، نورآباد و فیروزآباد (به ترتیب نماینده اقوام فارس، لر و ترک) می‌باشد. داده‌های مورد نیاز نیز با استفاده از ابزار پرسشنامه جمع‌آوری شده است. نتایج تحقیق حاکی از آن پایین بودن مشارکت سیاسی در هر دو شکل آفلاین و آنلاین در جامعه‌ آماری مورد مطالعه می‌باشد. نکته مهم دیگر آنکه متغیر قومیت به‌طور معناداری دارای رابطه مثبت با مشارکت سیاسی بوده است که می‌تواند به‌عنوان تهدیدی برای دموکراسی در معنای فراگیر آن لحاظ شود.
