Cameron and Kenneth E. Sharpe The proliferation of new mechanisms for participation in Latin American democracies and considers the relationship between direct participation and the consolidation of representative institutions based on traditional electoral conceptions of democracy. Encompassing case studies of Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico, Nicaragua, Uruguay, and Venezuela, the book draws on original fieldwork to assess how institutions operate in practice, thus illuminating the conditions under which direct participation enhances broader aims of democratic participation. In so doing, it conveys fresh perspectives on the quality of democracy in Latin America today and about future prospects for deepening democratic citizenship.--Ršum ďe l'ďiteur. 413 Participación política América Latina 619 Democracia América Latina 13485 Gobierno local América Latina 2279 Cultura política América Latina 620 América Latina Política y gobierno 13714 Cameron, Maxwell A., 1961- editor 12596 Hershberg, Eric editor 13715 Sharpe, Kenneth E., 1945- editor lcc BK dpf 0 0 0 0 CS BJB BJB CS 2020-10-27 0 JL 966 N532 2012 00000149915 2020-10-27 00:00:00 1 2020-10-27 BK
