| 總結: | To what extent does ideology influence public tolerance of administrative burdens that hinder access to public services and programs? Drawing on original survey data from Mexico, this study shows that demand for lower administrative burdens is primarily associated with segments of the electorate that identify with the left. However, the effect of ideology weakens among individuals with a direct relationship to the state, whether as beneficiaries of public programs or as taxpayers. The increase or reduction of administrative burdens is, therefore, not merely a technical matter of service or benefit administration but a political issue with potentially significant electoral implications. This helps explain why a leftist government like that of López Obrador prioritized reducing intermediaries and conditionalities in the distribution of social benefits.
