Presidentialism and Democracy in Latin America de Scott Mainwaring

Presidentialism and Democracy in Latin America: Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics

Editat de Scott Mainwaring, Matthew Soberg Shugart
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 mai 1997
This 1997 book addresses the current debate regarding the liabilities and merits of presidential government. Does presidentialism make it less likely that democratic governments will be able to manage political conflict? With the unprecedented wave of transitions to democracy since the 1970s, this question has been hotly contested in political and intellectual circles all over the globe. The contributors to this volume examine variations among different presidential systems and skeptically view claims that presidentialism has added significantly to the problems of democratic governance and stability.
