"Para garantizar la democracia, el derecho electoral debe aplicarse como un saber crítico que incluya aspectos institucionales, organizacionales y administrativos. Por ello se vuelve necesario tener un estudio sistemático y comparado del derecho electoral en América Latina que analice todas las etapas del proceso: desde el derecho ciudadano a votar y ser votado, hasta la resolución jurisdiccional de las controversias basada en un enfoque comparativo de los aspectos institucionales, políticos y sociales en los que se ha desarrollado el derecho electoral latinoamericano. Esta obra es el resultado de la cooperación de un gran número de investigadores latinoamericanos y europeos de diferentes disciplinas, especialmente de la ciencia política y del derecho público. Cada análisis destaca los progresos en la legislación y señala los límites en la aplicación dentro del contexto sociopolítico, especialmente de la cultura política de la región. El financiamiento de los partidos políticos y de las campañas electorales, el acceso de los candidatos a los medios de comunicación, la participación de las mujeres en la política y el voto desde el extranjero son algunos de los temas que se analizan en este libro"-- Provided by publisher.

"In 'The Criminalization of Democratic Politics in the Global South', Zaffaroni, Caamaño and Vegh Weis offer an account of the misuse of the law to criminalize progressive political leaders in Latin America. Indeed, more and more popular political leaders in the region end up imprisoned or persecuted, even while in power. Inacio Lula da Silva, former President of Brazil and author of the preface, is the quintaessential case of this worrying process. Despite the centrality of this juridical-political phenomenon in Latin America, it is hardly known to the Anglo-Saxon public. This book seeks to fill this gap. In an accessible style, the authors deconstruct the judicial language and the main problematics of lawfare, calling attention to the fact that it might end up demolishing the rule of law for the sake of fostering the most cruel forms of neoliberalism"-- Provided by publisher.

"Seeking Justice: Access to Remedy for Corporate Human Rights Abuse explores victims' varying experiences in seeking remedy mechanisms for corporate human rights abuse. It puts forward a novel theory about the possibility of productive contestation and explores governance outcomes for victims of corporate human rights abuse across Latin America. This foundation informs three pathways that victims can use to press for their rights: working within the institutional environment, capitalizing on corporate characteristics, and elevating voices. Seeking Justice challenges the common assumptions in the governance gap literature and argues instead that greater democratic practices can emerge from productive contestation. This book brings to bear tough questions about the trade-offs associated with economic growth and conflicting values around human dignity - questions that are very salient today, as citizens around the globe contemplate the types of democratic and economic systems that might better prepare us for tomorrow"-- Provided by publisher.
