Government and the Nonprofit Sector in Latin America
Nonprofit Policy Forum 2016; 7(2): 117–135 Article Open Access Susan M. Appe and Michael Dennis Layton* Government and the Nonprofit Sector in Latin America DOI 10.1515/npf-2014-0028 Introduction A growing literature is exploring the dynamics of government–nonprofit relations, but most of this work has focused on developed nations with strong economies and consolidated democracies (Salamon 1995, 2002; Young 1999, 2000). The nations of the developing world, which by definition have weaker economies, and generally have less consolidated democracies and smaller nonprofit sectors, have received less attention (Najam 2000; Coston 1998). Among the latter, the nations of Latin America present an interesting set of cases: there is wide variation in terms of levels of economic development and democratic consolidation, but historically weak nonprofit sectors are a common element. For example, the five Latin American nations that are represented in the Johns Hopkins University Comparative Nonprofit Sector Project, although they are among the wealthiest in Latin America, have relatively small sectors compared to other developing nations, many of whom are less wealthy (Salamon et al. ch. 2). The final decades of the twentieth century witnessed a period of democratic stability in Latin America, which unfortunately has – in some nations – fallen prey to what Weyland (2013) alternately describes as “soft authoritarianism,” “personalistic plebiscitarianism,” or populism. A growing number of nations, *Corresponding author: Michael Dennis Layton, International Relations, Instituto Tecnologico Autonomo de Mexico, Rio Hondo 1, Tizapan Progreso, Mexico, Distrito Federal 01080, Mexico; Center on Philanthropy and Public Policy, Sol Price School of Public Policy, University of Southern California, Lewis Hall, Room 210, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0626, USA, E-mail: [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0003-0853-3162 Susan M. -

Coup D'etat Events, 1946-2012
COUP D’ÉTAT EVENTS, 1946-2018 CODEBOOK Monty G. Marshall and Donna Ramsey Marshall Center for Systemic Peace July 25, 2019 Overview: This data list compiles basic descriptive information on all coups d’état occurring in countries reaching a population greater than 500,000 during the period 1946-2018. For purposes of this compilation, a coup d’état is defined as a forceful seizure of executive authority and office by a dissident/opposition faction within the country’s ruling or political elites that results in a substantial change in the executive leadership and the policies of the prior regime (although not necessarily in the nature of regime authority or mode of governance). Social revolutions, victories by oppositional forces in civil wars, and popular uprisings, while they may lead to substantial changes in central authority, are not considered coups d’état. Voluntary transfers of executive authority or transfers of office due to the death or incapacitance of a ruling executive are, likewise, not considered coups d’état. The forcible ouster of a regime accomplished by, or with the crucial support of, invading foreign forces is not here considered a coup d’état. The dataset includes four types of coup events: successful coups, attempted (failed) coups, coup plots, and alleged coup plots. In order for a coup to be considered “successful” effective authority must be exercised by new executive for at least one month. We are confident that the list of successful coups is comprehensive. Our confidence in the comprehensiveness of the coup lists diminishes across the remaining three categories: good coverage (reporting) of attempted coups and more questionable quality of coverage/reporting of coup plots (“discovered” and alleged). -

Por eso ha tardado casi seis años en volverse realidad. Empecé a reflexionar sobre las causas de la inestabilidad ministerial de nuestros gobiernos cuando tomaba mis primeros cursos en la maestría de Ciencias Políticas, a inicios del 2006. Entonces, el Ecuador proyectaba un modelo presidencialista debilitado y los últimos esfuerzos de nuestra clase política por impulsar una reforma a la Constitución de 1998 habían fracasado como en tantas otras ocasiones. En esos meses tuve que suspender mis estudios en la Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, FLACSO- Ecuador, por un encargo profesional que no podía eludir puesto que me resultaba apasionante y retador. Cuando me retiré de la maestría lo hice con la convicción de que volvería a las aulas para terminar este proyecto de investigación que ahora ya es una tesis. Gracias a Diario EL COMERCIO por haber apoyado siempre mis planes de crecimiento académico y profesional. -
Ecuador: Reforma Constitucional, Nuevos Actores Políticos Y Viejas Prácticas Partidistas
revista DE CIENCIA POLÍTICA / VOLUMEN 29 / Nº 2 / 2009 / 381 – 406 EC UADO R : R EFO R MA C ONSTITU C IONAL , NUEVOS A C TO R ES P OLÍTI C OS Y VIEJAS pr Á C TI C AS P A R TIDISTAS Ecuador: Constitutional Reform, New Political Actors, and Old Political Practices SANTIAGO BASABE-SERRANO Centro de Investigaciones de Política y Economía (CIPEC) RESUMEN La aprobación de un diseño constitucional caracterizado por el desplazamiento de las instituciones de representación democrática y el afianzamiento de incentivos negativos hacia la cooperación entre los Poderes del Estado, reflejan las principales lógicas del nuevo escenario político ecuatoriano. Paradójicamente, los actores provenientes del viejo sistema de partidos, la asignación clientelar de recursos o espacios de poder y el ancestral caudillismo político a los que critica permanentemente el gobierno del Presidente Correa, constituyen los rasgos básicos del período de sedimentación de la denominada “revolución ciudadana”. Bajo dicho contexto y recurriendo al análisis de eventos críticos, este artículo ofrece una panorámica de los rendimientos políticos, económicos y sociales observados en el Ecuador durante el año 2008. Palabras clave: Ecuador, Asamblea Constituyente, partidos, instituciones, democracia. ABSTRACT The approving of a new constitucional design characterized by the displacement of the principal institutions of democratic representation and the reinforcement of negative incentives to cooperation among legislative, executive and judiciary reflect the main logic in the new Ecuadorian political arena. Paradoxically, actors from the old political party system, pork barrel, and the ancient political caudillismo constantly criticized by president Correa are the fundamental features of the sedimentation period of the “revolución ciudadana” (citizen’s revolution).
