Same as it ever was
Over the past several years, hundreds of thousands of emigrants across the world have returned to their home countries, as deportation policies have been vigorously pursued in many of the major destination countries. In the Americas, the Mexican and U.S. governments’ heightened emphasis on forced removal has led to an increasing number of individuals returning to their countries of origin. This trend raises important questions about what returnee…
Development Context and the Political Behavior of Remittance Recipients in Latin America and the Caribbean
Shaping Politics at Home
The dramatic rise of democratic regimes around the world has coincided with an equally significant increase in migration, characterized by an unprecedented movement of people from emerging to established democracies. Through analysis of survey data from six Latin American countries, we offer an empirical evaluation of theoretical mechanisms through which migration can shape the political behaviors of non-migrants in sending nations. We find that …
Democracy, Governance, and Emigration Intentions in Latin America and the Caribbean
The Return of “the Local” to Mexican Politics
This article studies the return of “the Local” to Mexican politics over the last three decades. It defines “the Local” as the local-level actors and institutions that mostly served as bit players in the drama that unfolded in recent Mexican political drama. It narrates the story of the return of the Local and examines three areas of Mexico's economic and political development patterns. The article also discusses the highly unrelated local develop…
Subnational electoral regimes and crisis recovery in Argentina and Mexico
Unresolved Tensions
Migration in the Americas
Because Mexico–U.S. migration represents the largest sustained migratory flow between two nations worldwide, much of the theoretical and empirical work on migration in the Americas has focused on this single case. Yet in the past few decades, migration has emerged as a critical issue across all nations in Latin America and the Caribbean. Indeed, over the past fifteen years, this region has changed its historical position from a net migrant-receiv…
Transition Shocks and Emigration Profiles in Latin America
Scholars have long recognized the impact transformative political events have had on migration patterns in individual countries, but few have extended these ideas to the current period of political transition taking place across Latin America. Through analysis of data from the Latin American Migration Project (LAMP) and the Mexican Migration Project (MMP) from across Peru, Nicaragua, and the Mexican states of Guerrero and Oaxaca, the authors offe…
Partisan Attachment and Democracy in Mexico
Party identification is a central concept in studies of parties and elections. Drawing from an extensive literature linking the concept of party identification to the understanding of Mexico's electoral politics, this article explores how the Mexican experience informs the understanding of party identification in general, especially in emerging democracies. There, voters' attachments to political parties are usually seen both as essential to and …
The Demise of One-Party Politics in Mexican Municipal Elections
The third wave of democratization has profoundly affected national political institutions and procedures throughout the developing world. In many nations, however, local political institutions and actors also hold considerable power. Democratic reforms at the national level are not necessarily replicated at the local level, yet democratization is inherently incomplete if a nation is speckled with scores of authoritarian local political enclaves. …
