In Latin America, countries have a deep connection with the presidency norms and the democratic system and political history.Many countries have set up two restrictions to prevent the centralized threat to democratic institutions.Yet, the limitation limit is not adherence among all countries, political motivation, civil support and international influence in impact on the decision-making of various countries.
Historical Background and Development
Since the beginning of ancient Greece and the Roman Republic, the limitations of tenure began to be known.Ancient Athens and Roman laws have clear provisions, prohibiting a public service for successive re-election to avoid the situation in the “lifetime president”.
The practice of different countries
In Mexico, the Constitution stipulated that the president could only be re-elected once, and had a series of anti-corruption reforms in the country.Yet, and unrest all countries continue to comply with the provisions.For example, the Constitution of Argentina was carried out in 1994 to be modified, allowing the president to be re-elected twice, which reflects the flexibility of tenure limits with the change in the political situation.
The influence of political background
Actually, whether or not two organs are often related to the domestic political ecology.In a country, political elites and seeking personal interests tend to exceed democratic democratic loyalty.For example, in Venezuela, the opposition’s protest against the Chaveus regime fails to stop the ones to cancel the term through the referendum.The use of the situation makes people unthink that the term limits can truly play a role in democratic mechanisms?
Risk and Challenge
Many political observers believe that the term limits the democratic system on the one hand, but its execution often faces huge challenges, particularly when the rulings try to use political resources to bypass the rules of the sake.
In Latin America, the political situation has appeared multiple times in the past decades.In many countries, if one president is facing a high support rate, his term follows the term may be considered unnecessary.One question: Between economic growth and political stability, there is more priority in the heart of a person?
International impact and internal pressure
Many countries have term limits and dense in international political environments.In a certain situation, the international community exerts pressure on political practice in a country and requires it to follow the principle of democracy to maintain foreign aid and diplomatic relations.Yet, the purpose does not only not be able to push reforms, but may even trigger more serious social turmoil.Experience in Latin America has proven that regardless of the remand of external forces in the internal remand, they cannot unilaterally determine the future of a country.
Thinking about the future
Even the Office limits of the presidential power structure and operational model of the presidential powers, even if there are term limits in most countries in the majority countries.
In the future, the Latin American countries should remain tenure restrictions in the end, and dynamic adjustments according to the changes in the political ecology will become many people in depth.Do not have the need to be broken in a special situation to be broken to better in keeping with the national practical demand?Dis deserves future researchers to continue exploring and concern?
