Institutions on the Edge
Why does institutional instability pervade the developing world? Examining contemporary Latin America, Institutions on the Edge develops and tests a novel argument to explain why institutional crises emerge, spread, and repeat in some countries, but not in others. The book draws on formal bargaining theories developed in the conflict literature to offer the first unified micro-level account of inter-branch crises. In so doing, Helmke shows that concentrating power in the executive branch not only fuels presidential crises under divided government, but also triggers broader constitutional crises that cascade on to the legislature and the judiciary. Along the way, Helmke highlights the importance of public opinion and mass protests, and elucidates the conditions under which divided government matters for institutional instability.
Políticos y militares en Colombia
Este libro analiza dos eventos de la historia reciente del país en los que la inestabilidad política y el deterioro institucional alcanzaron su mayor expresión: la toma del Palacio de Justicia por parte de una célula terrorista del grupo guerrillero M-19 en noviembre de 1985 y los nexos de la clase política con el narcotráfico que desembocó en el escándalo del "Proceso 8000" entre 1994-1997. Además, estudia por qué en Colombia en los momentos que parecían más propicios para que las Fuerzas Militares asumieran el control del poder político, no ocurrieron golpes militares o intentos de golpes y, por el contrario, se mantuvo una democracia electoral.
