Parallel Marxisms
During the interwar period, theorists synthesised Indigeneity, the national-popular struggle and socialist praxis. Recognising the limitations of orthodox Marxism, José Carlos Mariátegui and Antonio Gramsci developed original perspectives on revolutionary theory and practice for twentieth-century socialism. While there is no evidence of a direct relationship between them, their ideas bear striking similarities in elucidating a socialist project. …
Fundamentos del ecosocialismo latinoamericano en Mariátegui

Using six AmericasBarometer surveys from 2008 to 2018, we analyze the supply-side (partisanship) and demand-side (ideological iden…
The Determinants of Perception of Corruption in Guatemala, 2006–2016

Using the Latin American Public Opinion Project (LAPOP) from 2006 to 2016, this article analyzes the evolution in the perception of corruption in Guatemala and …
