Latin American Security Challenges, Paul D. Taylor
Latin American Security Challenges, Paul D. Taylor
Newport Papers
Two major trends in recent years have altered the context of discussions of security issues in the Western Hemisphere and made new assessments imperative. The first trend is the erosion of the euphoria of the early 1990s, when the apparent success of elections in most countries of the Americas seemed to herald a new democratic era, and market-oriented economic reforms promised greater prosperity throughout the region. Regrettably, the past decade has seen a profound disillusionment, as the promises of freedom, prosperity, and greater social and economic progress have not been realized at a rate sufficient to convince citizens that their …
Building A Better Seating Chart For Sovereign Restructurings, Anna Gelpern
Building A Better Seating Chart For Sovereign Restructurings, Anna Gelpern
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
Every sovereign debt restructuring in recent memory has wrestled with the problem of inter-creditor equity. Governments have discriminated among creditors in ways that were hard to predict and often were not revealed until after a debt default. In contrast, debts of firms, individuals and even localities are ranked in order of priority established by contract and statute. This ranking is known at borrowing, generally corresponds to the order of repayment in bankruptcy liquidation, and helps define the creditors' relative bargaining power in reorganization. Without a bankruptcy backstop, most debts of national governments are legally equal. Yet in practice, sovereign immunity …

Evaluation In Latin America And The Caribbean: An Overview Of Recent Developments, Thomas Chianca, Brandon Youker
Brandon W. Youker Ph.D
In the past ten years, evaluation, as a professional field, has undergone significant development in several countries in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Four considerations provide clear evidence of such development: (1) establishment of professional evaluation organizations; (2) intensified dissemination of ideas and use of professional evaluation in the three key societal sectors: government, private, and philanthropic; (3) increased number of evaluation-related publications; and (4) growing establishment of short-term and graduate-level training programs in evaluation.
La Segunda Vuelta Electoral Y La Gobernabilidad En Los Sistemas Políticos Latinoamericanos, Fernando Barrientos Del Monte
La Segunda Vuelta Electoral Y La Gobernabilidad En Los Sistemas Políticos Latinoamericanos, Fernando Barrientos Del Monte
Fernando Barrientos Del Monte
En los últimos años varios países latinoamericanos han adoptado el sistema de elección directa con umbrales fijos y Segunda Vuelta Electoral (SVE) con la finalidad de asegurar la mayoría absoluta en la elección presidencial. La SVE se considera un tipo de sistema electoral que sirve para maximizar la legitimidad de origen. No obstante los efectos de la SVE son cuestionables, porque a la luz de los años los resultados han mostrado que tiende a operar en sentido contrario a los objetivos para los que se adoptó. La elección presidencial en dos vueltas en países latinoamericanos, caracterizados por graves contrastes y …
