Recenzii
"This updated and expanded edition of Democratic Latin America remains the best textbook available on this important region. Its focus on institutions, joining of concepts with country cases, and coverage of 18 countries makes it an unparalleled teaching tool, while its superb organization and writing style makes it extremely accessible to students."
David Pion-Berlin, Professor of Political Science, University of California, Riverside
"Ever since I first had the opportunity to review the first edition of Democratic Latin America by Craig L. Arceneaux there has not been a textbook for any of the regions I teach that I am more excited about. It provides a thorough overview of all the major institutional dynamics that you would want students to understand, while also providing detailed examples from individual countries. The latest edition includes valuable new discussions of the peace accords in Colombia, political changes in Cuba, the recent surge in protests all over the region (especially Chile), new examples of executive removals and impeachments, and the evangelical movement. A particularly useful addition is the discussion of neo-populism in Latin America, reflected in the recent elections of Lopez Obrador in Mexico and Bolsonaro in Brazil. Arceneaux provides a thorough overview of the concept of populism and explores its unique Latin American features as well as the characteristics of the current wave of populism in the region."
