Abstract
A pesar de que la revocatoria del mandato ha sido históricamente un mecanismo poco utilizado y bastante cuestionado, en las últimas décadas se ha expandido en América Latina. Dicha expansión se debe a su introducción en las leyes y a frecuentes activaciones o intentos de activación del mecanismo. En esta línea, el objetivo del presente artículo es identificar las condiciones institucionales, sociales y políticas que inciden en el éxito o fracaso de estos intentos de revocatoria de autoridades locales. Con dicha finalidad, se analizan las experiencias de revocatoria en las grandes ciudades de América del Sur.
Though historically recall referendum mechanism has been the least used, and the most controversial, in the last decades it has expanded in Latin America. This expansion is caused by its inclusion in laws and frequent activations or attempts to activate this direct democracy mechanism (DDM). The aim of this paper is to identify the institutional, social and political conditions that have an impact in the success or failure of the attempts to use this mechanism, by analyzing the experiences in large cities in South America with this DDM.
