Mexico's Evolving Democracy
Democracy worked in Mexico’s 2012 elections—just not as democrats would have liked. In 2012, the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI)—which had governed Mexico with an iron grip for 71 years before being ousted in 2000—was surprisingly returned to power. In Mexico's Evolving Democracy, a team of distinguished political scientists delivers an exceptional analysis of the remarkable 2012 Mexican elections. Extending the scholarship that the editors generated in their panel studies of the 2000 and 2006 elections, the book assesses all three elections from both traditional and nontraditional vantage points, seeking fuller answers to the lingering question of why this maturing democracy...
Persuasive Peers
How voting behavior in Latin America is influenced by social networks and everyday communication among peers In Latin America’s new democracies, political parties and mass partisanship are not deeply entrenched, leaving many votes up for grabs during election campaigns. In a typical presidential election season, between one-quarter and one-half of all voters—figures unheard of in older democracies—change their voting intentions across party lines in the months before election day. Advancing a new theory of Latin American voting behavior, Persuasive Peers argues that political discussions within informal social networks among family members, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and acquaintan...
Black Lives Matter in Latin America
This volume considers how Black activism in Latin America has taken place in varying arenas such as in the academy, digital platforms, and traditional forms of activism. Contributors also examine the impact of activism on policy advocacy and legislation, as well as groups who the Black Lives Matter movement focus on such as women and immigrants. The first part of the book focuses on making Black Lives Matter in academic studies, governmental data, and politics. The next section focuses on the impact of Black activism on policy and legislation in Brazil, Colombia, and Peru. Black activists have been fighting for Black lives throughout Latin America and their struggles have not been in vain, although less policy change has occurred in Peru. The last section finds that social media has allowed for more independent forms of Black activism in Brazil and Cuba.

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. Os capítulos também oferecem uma perspectiva longitudinal, privilegiando análises comparadas no tempo, englobando, sempre que possível, todo o período que cobre as eleições para presidente após a redemocratização no Brasil - ou seja, 1989, 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006 e 2010 ..."

O Partido dos Trabalhadores e a política brasileira (1980-2006 )
Considerado no início dos anos 1980 uma inovação na política brasileira, o Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) é hoje, às vésperas de completar trinta anos de fundação, uma das mais importantes legendas do país. As mudanças no modelo organizativo petista, a atuação de suas correntes internas, a relação do partido com o Estado e a sociedade civil, as propostas implementadas pela legenda em suas administrações, sua atividade na Câmara dos Deputados, as campanhas presidenciais das quais o PT participou e as transformações político-ideológicas da legenda são algumas questões debatidas neste livro. Por tudo isso, Partido dos Trabalhadores e a política brasileira (1980-2006) é obra fundamental para os que desejam compreender um pouco mais da história e do pensamento político do Brasil contemporâneo.
