Left-wing populism in twenty-first century Latin America

towards its collapse or end of cycle

Abstract

This approach analyzes a vision of leftist populism in Latin America during the first two decades of the 21st century, observing that after its rise to power, it has entered a phase that some analysts call "turning to the right" and others what they examine as the "collapse of the populist political left", after the experiences in Argentina, Brazil and other countries of the region. The populist Latin American left is not disappearing from the political map. His displacement of power centers requires him to examine his short- and medium-term projections, review his historical project and invest in a reengineering that facilitates the design of a pragmatic road map, in a complex scenario where the new right will seek to consolidate.
