Spanish term or phrase: acceso al gobierno
Brasil se expande aprovechando los huecos que van dejando los Estados Unidos y las empresas multinacionales del Norte, a caballo de la deslegitimación del Consenso de Washington que está permitiendo el *acceso al gobierno* de varios países de fuerzas progresistas y de izquierda.

neutral  Matthew Smith: IMHO, this implies that the political forces are allowed to TALK to the government, rather than BE the government. I would suggest "to form governments/take power"
