Synopsis
Commissioned by the organization Inter-American Dialogue, this text updates the 1996 work attempting to assess the democratization project in Latin America. Domíguez (international affairs, Harvard U.) and Shifter (Georgetown U.'s School of Foreign Service) present six topical essays stressing cross-country comparison in the areas of presidentialism and representative institutions, the military, market reforms, labor, women, and public opinion. They also include single-country case studies assessing overall conditions in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
