Recent Latin American governments have turned away from redistributive policies; at the same time, popular political and social organizations have been generally weakened, inequality has increased, and the gap between rich and poor has grown. Hanging in the balance is the consolidation and the quality of new or would-be democracies; this volume suggests that governments must find not just short-term programmes to alleviate poverty, but long-term means to ensure the effective integration of the poor into political life. The New Politics of Inequality in Latin America bridges the intellectual chasm between, on the one hand, studies of grassroots politics, and on the other, explorations of elite politics and formal institution-building. It will be of interest to students and scholars of contemporary Latin American politics and society and, more generally, in the vicissitudes of democracy and citizenship in the late twentieth-century global system.Oxford studies in democratization.Political participationLatin AmericaRepresentative government and representationLatin AmericaPoorLatin AmericaPolitical activityEqualityLatin AmericaDemocracyLatin AmericaSocial changeLatin AmericaPolitical participationRepresentative government and representationPoorPolitical activity.EqualityDemocracySocial change323/.042/098Chalmers Douglas A944414MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967218603321The new politics of inequality in Latin America4476377UNINA
