Course Description

In this class we will examine the trials, tribulations, and triumphs that have accompanied the process of democratization in many Latin American countries. Our view will be both historical and geographically concentrated. We will look at the major challenges and steps to greater political liberalization that affected much of Latin America over the 20th century. We will also consider a region, the Andes, where the road to democracy has typically been viewed as unusually long and abnormally fraught.
