Se destaca que a pesar de haberse lanzado distintas convocatorias para celebrar elecciones, ellas no se han transformado en un mecanismo fundamental para consolidar la democracia en Haití. De hecho, la nación haitiana sigue debatiéndose entre los impulsos democratizadores y el legado de la tradición autoritaria. La tesis central de este trabajo sostiene que la precariedad de las instituciones y la aguda polarización son dos factores que han impedido convertir a las elecciones en uno de los mecanismos cruciales de la democratizaciónFacultad de Ciencias Políticas y Sociales2009-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unam.mx/index.php/rel/article/view/4923710.22201/cela.24484946e.2009.23.49237Estudios Latinoamericanos; Núm. 23 (2009): Nueva época, enero-junio; 149-1652448-49460187-181110.22201/cela.24484946e.2009.23reponame:Estudios Latinoamericanosinstname:UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICOinstacron:UNAMspahttps://revistas.unam.mx/index.php/rel/article/view/49237/44294info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/492372024-08-16T17:24:31Z
