{"product_id":"oligarchy-in-the-americas-joe-foweraker-9783030631451","title":"Oligarchy in the Americas: Comparing Oligarchic Rule in Latin America and the United States","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book explores the continuity of oligarchic rule in the Americas of the modern period, with a focus on the variable compatibility of oligarchic rule and democratic government. This focus sets the terms for a comparative inquiry that creates a novel perspective on the politics of Latin America and the United States alike. The continuity depends on the formation of a patrimonial State and a porous division between oligarchic interests and the public sphere of democratic politics; but it also depends on a capacity to adapt and change, and these changes are marked by successive and distinctive modes of rule in both Latin America and the United States. The book concludes with a description and comparison of the sequences and political characteristics of these modes of rule and discovers a recent and remarkable convergence of oligarchic rule in the Americas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Foweraker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030631451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030631451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.38d","brand":"Joe Foweraker","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47136545374463,"sku":"9783030631451","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b0855683-13ed-4ab8-98d5-bf68f044a07e.jpg?v=1755023673","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/oligarchy-in-the-americas-joe-foweraker-9783030631451","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
