Yet, we still have much to learn about the process through which ministers are selected and the reasons why they are replaced in presidential systems. This book offers the most comprehensive, cross-national analysis of portfolio allocation in the Americas to date. In doing so, it contributes to the development of theories about portfolio allocation in presidential systems. Looking specifically at how presidents use portfolio allocation as part of their wider political strategy, it examines eight country case studies, within a carefully developed analytical framework and cross-national comparative analysis from a common dataset. The book includes cases studies of portfolio allocation in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, the United States, Peru and Uruguay, and covers the period between the transition to democracy in each country up until 2014. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of political elites, executive politics, Latin American politics and more broadly comparative politics"-- Portfolio allocation in the Americas / Marcelo Camerlo and Cecilia Martínez-Gallardo -- It my way : portfolio allocation in the United States (1969-2013) / Maria Escobar-Lemmon, MaryAnne Borrelli and Michelle Taylor Robinson -- Diverse profiles within single-party cabinets : portfolio allocation in Costa Rica (1978-2014) / Gerardo Hernández Naranjo and Jesús Guzmán Castillo -- Parliamentary style : portfolio allocation in Uruguay (1967-2015) / Daniel Chasquetti y Daniel Buquet -- Together we govern : portfolio allocation in Chile (1990-2014) / Octavio Avendaño and Mireya Dávila -- Presidentially-led coalitions : portfolio allocation in Brazil 1985-2016 / Magna Inácio -- Bait and switch? : portfolio allocation in Colombia 1958-2014 / Luis Bernardo Mejía Guinand and Felipe Botero -- Cooperative but non-partisan : portfolio allocation in Peru (1980-2014) / Sofia Vera and Miguel Carreras -- Unilateral no matter what : portfolio allocation in Ecuador (1979-2015) / Santiago Basabe-Serrano, John Polga-Hecimovich, and Andrés Mejía Acosta -- Portfolio allocation in the Americas : a recap / Cecilia Martínez-Gallardo and Marcelo Camerlo |
