Latin America has been neoliberal in the 1990s, leftist during the 2000s, then conservative in 2016-2018 and progressist again since 2018.\u003cp\u003eThe reference to a right\/left\/right\/left sequence over a period of thirty years undoubtedly accounts for a singular pendulum pattern yet proves to be excessively simplistic. The right\/left dichotomy hides fractures and nuances that characterize each political camp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book seeks to explain why some elections result in alternations and others do not. Based on an innovative theoretical framework and a unique collection of case studies, the book offers a rich understanding of Latin America’s contemporary political evolutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVoters are getting accustomed to punishing incumbents for not delivering in time of crises, resulting in frequent alternations. It might be good for democracy, not so much for governability.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2023-03-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031267604\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-26761-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 382\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49476892557452,"sku":"9783031267604","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031267604.jpg?v=1777997386","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783031267604","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
