Latin America has been neoliberal in the 1990s, leftist during the 2000s, then conservative in 2016-2018 and progressist again since 2018. The reference to a right/left/right/left sequence over a period of thirty years undoubtedly accounts for a singular pendulum pattern yet proves to be excessively simplistic. The right/left dichotomy hides fractures and nuances that characterize each political camp. This book seeks to explain why some elections result in alternations and others do not. Based on an innovative theoretical framework and a unique collection of case studies, the book offers a rich understanding of Latin Americas contemporary political evolutions. Voters are getting accustomed to punishing incumbents for not delivering in time of crises, resulting in frequent alternations. It might be good for democracy, not so much for governability. Olivier Dabne is Professor of Political Science at the Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po) and Senior Researcher at the Center for International Studies (CERI, Sciences Po), France. He is also the President of the Political Observatory of Latin America and the Caribbean (www.sciencespo.fr/opalc) and Visiting Professor in many Latin American universities. 001461689 588__ $$aDescription based upon online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed March 27th, 2023). 001461689 650_0 $$aPolitical parties$$zLatin America. 001461689 651_0 $$aLatin America$$xPolitics and government$$y1980- 001461689 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461689 7001_ $$aDabène, Olivier,$$eeditor. 001461689 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDabène, Olivier$$tLatin America's Pendular Politics$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031267604 001461689 830_0 $$aStudies of the Americas. 001461689 852__ $$bebk 001461689 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-26761-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461689 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461689$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461689 980__ $$aBIB 001461689 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461689 982__ $$aEbook 001461689 983__ $$aOnline 001461689 994__ $$a92$$bISE
