The Rise of Right-Wing Populist Parties and Reversal of Economic Reforms in Developing Democracies
When and why are right-wing populist (RWP) parties electorally successful in developing democracies? What are the consequences of their electoral success? The Rise of Right-Wing Populist Parties and Reversal of Economic Reforms in Developing Democracies presents an original theoretical framework that is grounded in the socio-economic characteristics of developing countries to answer these questions.

O voto para presidente no Brasil
"Nesta obra, doze pesquisadores de diferentes instituições - nacionais e internacionais - são autores de capítulos que aliam densa discussão teórica e forte orientação empírica, realizando análises ancoradas em diversas fontes de dados, especialmente, mas não exclusivamente, em pesquisas de opinião pública com amostras representativas para o país.

Considerando que a temática de reforma política nunca deixa ser atual, o livro em questão preenche lacunas sociais, além de bibliográficas.
