The argument is rooted in theoretical discussions and empirical analyses of trends and specific cases. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume deals with the following questions: Why is populism so prolific in the Latin American region? How and where do populist leaders arrive to power? Is there a connection between populism and fascism as claimed by negative views of Argentinian Peronism? Are populist leaders more keen on introducing mechanisms of direct citizen participation? Are the erosions of the political party system an explanation of the emergence of populism, as seems to be the case with Fujimorism in Peru? To what extent have the governments of Hugo Ch疱ez, Evo Morales and Rafael Correa given voice to the people through the so-called participatory democracy? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yanina Welp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3110737345\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783110737349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Yanina Welp","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073576857855,"sku":"9783110737349","price":108.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0e403b3a-c28c-47d1-9432-604b01ab231d.jpg?v=1685448642","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-will-of-the-people-yanina-welp-9783110737349","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
