Colombia 2010
The 2010 Colombian elections clearly moved the country toward a more multiparty system, characterized by the practice of post-electoral coalitions. These tendencies had been emerging since the collapse of the two-party system in the 1990s. The purpose of this article is to discuss the 2010 electoral results, with particular attention to the manner in which the referendum proposal to re-elect President Alvaro Uribe Vélez impacted the elections. We…
Sobre forma y sustancia
Este artículo hace un balance del estado de la democracia en Colombia resaltando la fuerte tensión entre la forma y la sustancia.

High Anxiety in the Andes
With few exceptions, Latin American democracies suffer from severe institutional weaknesses, growing poverty and inequality, and a host of other ills that come with spotty economic performance. The region's political systems, meanwhile, seem overmatched. They do not look as if they can make headway in solving these crippling problems. The five Andean nations--Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela--show especially clear signs of this wea…

The economy was deteriorating rapidly, and the …
Democratization in Latin America
The literature on Latin American politics has tended to reflect the problematic issues of those societies, as well as a herd instinct on the part of academics seeking to comprehend the dynamics of political behavior embedded in those rapidly changing societies. Thus in the period following World War II, quasi-paradigms emerged that focused on development, center-periphery relations, bureaucratic authoritarianism, transitions from authoritarian re…

Belief Systems of Colombian Political Party Activists
The relationship between ideas and political action represents a continuing, albeit frustrating, point of contention among political analysts. Referring to the literature on ideology, Robert Putnam reflects this sentiment by noting, "Few concepts in social analysis have inspired such a mass of commentary yet few have stimulated the production of so little cumulative knowledge about society and politics. The lack of cumulation is due, above all, t…

This investigation entailed testing a modified version of Downs' spatial model using preference-order data gathered from interviews with political party leaders in the Bogota metropolitan area. Respondents in the sample were drawn from four political groups and from -three levels within their respective organizational hierarchies.
