Latin America is a world region comprised of the nineteen Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries of South, Central, and North America and the Caribbean. The Latin American political landscape has been home to populism, revolutions, dictatorships, democracies, presidentialism, the left, and the right. James Loxton examines the challenges of governing in the context of high poverty, inequality, violence, regime changes, and waivering democractic practices. The book offers broader lessons about the fragility of democracy and the danger posed by elected strongmen claiming to be champions of "the people" in their struggle against "the elites."
