Description

Why does presidential power vary so much between different countries? In Presidential Power in Latin America, Dan Berbecel offers a systematic theory that looks at how power actually works in practice rather than just looking at what is written in a constitution. This study moves beyond theoretical frameworks to examine the real-world application of authority. By analyzing expert survey data from Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) and conducting interviews with high-level figures, Berbecel provides a deep look into the political landscapes of Argentina and Chile. The research includes perspectives from the judiciary, public administration, NGOs, and academia to build a complete picture of political influence. This book challenges the idea that formal constitutional powers are the best way to measure a leader's strength. Instead, it demonstrates how informal power often dictates the actual capabilities of a president. This is an essential resource for students, academics, and anyone interested in the political realities of Latin American governance.
