Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1930s the state has played a primary role in the development process of Latin American countries, and political systems have had strong corporatist and authoritarian-centralist features. In the last several years, as that role has become increasingly incompatible with neoliberal reforms and the requirements of a transition to democracy, state power has been significantly decentralized, and the state has withdrawn from direct intervention in the economy. This book examines the consequences of the redefinition of the state for processes of democratization and statecivil society relations. }Since the 1930s the state has played a primary role in the development process of most Latin American countries, and political systems have had strong corporatist and authoritarian-centralist features. In the last several years, as that role has become increasingly incompatible with neoliberal reforms and the requirements of a transition to democracy, state power has been significantly decentralized, and the state has withdrawn from direct intervention in the economy. This book examines the consequences of the redefinition of the state for processes of democratization and statecivil society relations, looking, for example, at transfers of power to local and regional authorities, the role of NGOs and other interest groups in policymaking, the emergence of new social movements, and privatization and the introduction of market criteria. Several country case studies are also included. }

Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : "Este estudio trata sobre el desarrollo de la ciudadanía social y política en América Latina durante la primera década del siglo XXI. Lo analiza como el desafío central que tienen los Estados nacionales y plurinacionales en la región. A partir de la ciudadanía civil como condición básica, constata allí problemas serios, como el de la seguridad ciudadana, en cuya situación no se ha registrado progreso sino un claro retroceso en algunos países. Como lo indica el título, en América Latina sin embargo han tenido lugar transformaciones y se han alcanzado importantes logros políticos y sociales. En materia de democracia electoral, ordenamiento macroeconómico y capacidad institucional, se han sentado las bases que permitieron a nuestros países hacer frente a crisis económicas como la actual. Se han podido imprimir giros significativos respecto de la ampliación de la cobertura de las políticas públicas de protección y activación social, así como innovar y avanzar en el desarrollo de experiencias participativas, contribuyendo al progreso de la cultura ciudadana en un sentido amplio. Estos ajustes han ido de la mano de un cambio en la imagen que tradicionalmente predominaba en la región respecto al papel del Estado, reflejando una progresiva demanda de mayor protagonismo del mismo por parte de la ciudadanía. Aquí presentamos un diagnóstico pero también recomendaciones de cómo lograr lo que llamamos un Estado de Ciudadanía."

Book excerpt: Since the 1930s the state has played a primary role in the development process of most Latin American countries, and political systems have had strong corporatist and authoritarian-centralist features. In the last several years, as that role has become increasingly incompatible with neoliberal reforms and the requirements of a transition to democracy, state power has been significantly decentralized, and the state has withdrawn from direct intervention in the economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Diez anos atrás, América Latina se encontraba en un momento de grandes expectativas de cambio. Tanto en la dimensión economica como en la politica adquirian protagonismo no solo gobiernos que reivindicaban un nuevo papel para Latinoamérica, sino también un conjunto de actores sociales en efervescencia, a la vez que se daba un nuevo empuje a la integración regional y a la Cooperación Sur-Sur. Hoy la situación de la región es incierta y existen amenazas que pueden echar por tierra las conquistas sociales, politicas, económicas y de inserción internacional autónoma que han permitido el logro de una "década ganada" para los paises latinoamericanos. ¿Cuáles son el sentido y las implicaciones de los cambios que se registran en la región en Ios últimos anos en una tendencia calificada por algunos analistas como un "fin de ciclo"? Para responder esta pregunta y calibrar el alcance de las transformaciones en curso, un selecto grupo de académicos latinoamericanos y españoles identifican Ios procesos estructurales que subyacen a las innegables transformaciones que se registran en América Latina reflexionando sobre sus posibles consecuencias e impactos."--Page 4 of cover.

The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 2001, and Katherine D. McCann has been assistant editor since 2000. The subject categories for Volume 59 are as follows: Anthropology Economics Geography Government and Politics International Relations Sociology Electronic Resources for the Social Sciences

This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente volumen aborda el análisis de los procesos electorales de ámbito presidencial y legislativo celebrados en América Latina en el bienio 2014-2105. Se trata de elecciones celebradas en once países cuyo estudio se desarrolla en igual número de capítulos. Se cubren comicios simultáneos a ambas instancias en Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panamá y Uruguay. En El Salvador y en Colombia, aunque se celebraron en tiempos distintos, ambos tipos de comicios se consideran en el mismo capítulo; allí, las presidenciales precedieron a las legislativas con un año de diferencia en el primer país y las legislativas antecedieron por tres meses a las presidenciales en el segundo. Se recogen también en capítulos independientes las elecciones únicamente legislativas de México y Venezuela. Si bien el criterio temporal siempre puede calificarse de caprichoso en este caso sigue la preocupación iniciada hace ocho años de dar cumplida cuenta del acontecer electoral en la región, en el ámbito de los dos poderes representativos del Estado por excelencia. En efecto, este volumen da continuidad a anteriores trabajos. El bienio aquí analizado da cabida a un nivel promedio de elecciones presidenciales, si se tiene en cuenta el acumulado en la región desde hace 30 años, por lo cual es representativo del quehacer político latinoamericano. Así, la Tabla 1 recoge las 117 elecciones presidenciales que se han llevado a cabo en la región entre 19861 y 2015 cuyo resultado no fue cuestionado; su media es de cuatro procesos electorales por año y aquí el número de elecciones que se recogen son nueve.
