This book accounts for and analyzes the latest developments in
Latin American presidential democracies, with a special focus on
political institutions. The stellar line-up of renowned scholars of
Latin American politics and institutions from Latin America,
Europe, and the US, offer new insights into how democratic
institutions have operated within the critical context that marked
the political and social life of the region in the last few years:
the eruption of popular protest and discontent, the widespread
distrust of political institutions, and, of course, the COVID-19
pandemic. Combining different methodological approaches, including
cross-national studies, small-N studies, case studies, and
quantitative and qualitative data, the contributions cluster around
three themes: the problem with fixed-terms and other features of
presidentialism, inter-institutional relations and executive
accountability, and old and new threats to democracy in these times
of turmoil. The volume concludes with an assessment of the
political consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in Latin America.
Beyond current scholars and students of comparative political
scientists, Latin America in Times of Turbulence will be of great
interest to a wide spectrum of readers interested in comparative
systems of government, democracy studies, and Latin American
politics more generally.
