Political elites, agency discretion and anti-corruption governance in Chile
Between 2015 and 2018, Chile experienced several political corruption scandals that implicated the country’s political elite across the party spectrum. However, the outcomes of the ensuing judicial investigations have faced wide-spread criticism for being unsatisfactory, failing to set legal precedence, and weakening Chile’s anti-corruption governance. This article addresses the gap between Chile’s strong structural and formal conditions and the …

Der südamerikanische Binnenstaat Bolivien erlebte in den Jahren 2000-2005 eine massive Protestwelle, in deren Verlauf es zu einem drastischen Anstieg der Protesthandlungen verschiedenster sozialer Gruppen kam. Bettina Schorr geht zum einen den Faktoren nach, die den Ausbruch, den Verlauf und den Niedergang dieser Protestwelle bedingt haben. Zum anderen untersucht sie ihre politischen Folgen. Abschließend werden die Ergebnisse der Studie nach ihre…
Historisch-kulturelle Grundlagen und soziopolitischer Wandel
Protesthandlungen, soziale Bewegungen und Protestwellen beruhen stets auf spezifischen historischen und kulturellen Bedingungen, die ihre Form und ihren Inhalt beeinflussen.
