摘要

通过《拉丁美洲的政治与政治精英》，读者可以深入了解18个国家的政治相关话题。共有14章，分为民主与制度和案例研究两部分，涵盖了更好地理解当今复杂的拉丁美洲政治背景的关键领域，包括：政治野心、政治制度和对民主的满意度。所有研究都来自萨拉曼卡大学策划的拉丁美洲议会精英（PELA）数据集。该数据集包括20多年来对政治家的采访，使科学家能够探索民主和政治生活的一系列独特方面。与本书提供的主题分布略有不同，我们想通过关注本书第一部分中的三个具体领域来讨论主要论点：精英、立法者和立法精英。然后，我们将讨论案例研究。

Book Review: Politics and Political Elites in Latin America: Challenges and Trends by Manuel Alcántara, Mercedes García Montero, and Cristina Rivas Pérez

With Politics and Political Elites in Latin America, the reader is offered insights into topics related to politics in 18 countries. Structured in two parts, Democracy and Institutions and Case Studies, a total of 14 chapters covers key areas to better understand today’s complex Latin American political context, including: political ambition, political institutions, and satisfaction with democracy. All studies draw from the Parliamentary Elites in Latin America (PELA) dataset curated by the University of Salamanca. The dataset includes interviews with politicians for over 20 years, allowing scientists to explore a unique set of aspects of democracy and political life. Moving slightly away from the thematic distribution offered by the book, we would like to discuss the main arguments presented by focusing on three specific areas within the first section of the book: elites, legislators, and legislative elites. Then, we will discuss the case studies.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Press/Politics is an interdisciplinary journal for the analysis and discussion of the role of the press and politics in a globalized world. The Journal is interested in theoretical and empirical research on the linkages between the news media and political processes and actors. Special attention is given to the following subjects: the press and political institutions (e.g. the state, government, political parties, social movements, unions, interest groups, business), the politics of media coverage of social and cultural issues (e.g. race, language, health, environment, gender, nationhood, migration, labor), the dynamics and effects of political communication.
