    Keywords : Keywords: Campaign clientelism; Information theory; mixed methods; System justification theory; Zambia.; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Various studies on clientelism usually start from a common puzzle: Why is campaign clientelism widely practised by politicians even when they have no means of ensuring reciprocity from the voters?

These puzzles have motivated my research, where I attempt to understand the perceptions and motivations of politicians and voters towards campaign clientelism in Zambia.
