Book Description:
|
For two decades, students of presidentialism have argued that extreme executive-legislative conflict ignites military interventions. However, in more recent years many Latin American presidents have been removed from office without democratic breakdowns. This book addresses the emerging paradox of unstable governments in the midst of stable democracies.
