Krznaric, Roman  Civil and Uncivil Actors in the Guatemalan Peace Process. [Trad. Actores Civiles y Inciviles en el Proceso de Paz Guatemalteco] p. 1-16 Centroamérica
Guatemala
Resumo

This paper examines the Guatemalan peace process by focusing on different actors in civil society. It considers the peace negotiations between the government/ military and the guerrillas, rather than the realm of electoral procedures, to be the main locus of political transition. Challenging the work of many elite-centred theorists of democratisation who claim that civil society is an ephemeral and largely insignificant actor in transitions, the analysis considers both popular actors and business associations, one of the major‘ uncivil’ actors in Guatemalan civil society, and shows that civil society can have an impact on transitions on multiple levels. In attempting to explain the degree of impact, the paper illustrates the need to examine both the surrounding political opportunity structure and internal factors such as organisation, strategy and leadership.

Wilkinson, Stephen  Homosexuality and the Repression of Intellectuals in Fresa y chocolate and Máscaras . [Trad. La Homosexualidad y la Represión de los Intelectuales en Fresa y Chocolate y Máscaras ] p. 17-33 América Latina ; Caribe
Cuba
Resumo

The aim of this article is to examine and compare how the repression of homosexuals and intellectuals is portrayed in two recent Cuban fictional narratives: the film, Fresa y chocolate (Strawberry and Chocolate) (Gutierrez Alea et al., 1993) and the detective novel, Mascaras (Masks) (Padura Fuentes Mascaras, Tusquets, Barcelona, 1997). It discusses how these narratives document the history of both these phenomena and evaluates how they might contribute to a better understanding of the process of fundamental social and cultural transformation which the Revolution is experiencing following the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Philip, George  The Political Constraints on Economic Policy in Post-1982 Mexico: The Case of Pemex. [Trad. Restricciones Políticas y Política Económica en México en pos-1982: El Caso de Pemex] p. 35-50 América del Norte
México
Resumo

Fourteen years of market-oriented reform in Mexico have led to many economic changes. However during 1982–1994 there was relatively little change in the hydrocarbon sector. This article seeks to explain the slowness of reform essentially in political terms. While political constraints on reforming the hydrocarbons sector were genuine, it is also clear that the De la Madrid and Salinas governments chose to avoid controversial decisions in this sector as far as possible. Risk aversion seems, at least in this context, to have been a characteristic of Mexican authoritarianism during 1982–1994. Because of the inherent importance of the oil and gas sector to the Mexican economy, the slow growth of production since 1982 (largely resulting from extreme policy caution) provides a part of the explanation for the slow growth of the Mexican economy as a whole.

Costeloe, Michael P.  Mariano Arista and the 1850 Presidential Election in Mexico. [Trad. Mariano Arista y la Elección Presidencial de 1850 en México] p. 51-70 América del Norte
México
Resumo

This article examines the 1850 presidential election in Mexico. It is divided into five sections: party political background, electoral regulations, candidates, campaign, results. General Mariano Arista was the successful candidate in what was the first genuinely contested presidential election since independence.

Kleinber, Gremonda Bensabat  Strategic Alliances: State-Business Relations in Mexico Under Neo-Liberalism and Crisis. [Trad. Alianzas Estratégicas: Relaciones Estado-Empresas en México bajo el Neoliberalismo y una Crisis ] p. 71-87 América del Norte
México
Resumo

This paper examines how neoliberal policies implemented under Carlos Salinas Gortari (1988–1994) changed the nature of state-private sector relations in Mexico. The paper attempts to show how Mexico's entry into the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) solidified a strategic alliance between the state and business. The drastic peso devaluation of December 1994 and the ensuing economic crisis however, threatened to shatter the very foundation of the new alliance with the private sector. This paper thus, explores how the Ernesto Zedillo regime (1994–2000) addressed the expectations of the capital class and strengthened its transparent ties with the private sector. The paper argues that given the nature of the more transparent strategic alliance formed under the Salinas administration, big business continues to be brought into the policy making process, and that in fact, Zedillo continues to intervene on the side of business.
