presidentialist institutional solutions have prevailed Explanation: http://www.cebem.com/biblioteca/documentos/d-parlamen.htm "I think Bolivia's experience as a consolidating democracy is in the Latin American context instructive at least in searching for ways and mechanisms to solve some basic problems of presidentialist regimes as stalemate betweeen executive-legislative, immobilism and minority governments. As Scott Mainwaring argues, most presidentialist systems in Latin America pose the fundamental problem of being embedded in multiparty systems with proportional representation. Thus, the "difficult equation" of presidentialism, fragmented multiparty systems and proportional representation has been a permanent source of political conflicts affecting the chances of democratic institutionalization." |
