While it is true that poverty, political instability, and economic under-performance continue to be major problems in Latin America, the region has made substantial progress in raising standards of living and overcoming military authoritarianism. Latin American Politics reflects just how much the region has changed in the last two decades. Eduardo Alemán draws on contemporary research in comparative studies on institutions, elections, and public opinion to highlight the big questions that political scientists seek to answer today: What are the causes of political instability? What factors have influenced changes in economic and gender inequality? What are the implications of different political institutions for political outcomes?
Eduardo Alemán is an associate professor of political science at the University of Houston. Professor Alemán teaches courses in comparative politics, political institutions, and Latin American politics. He specializes in the comparative analysis of political institutions and the politics of Latin America. Professor Alemán has published numerous articles in such journals as World Politics, Comparative Politics, Legislative Studies Quarterly, Latin American Politics and Society, and Latin American Research Review. He is also the co-editor of the book, Legislative Institutions and Lawmaking in Latin America (2016), with George Tsebelis.
