Abstract
VAZQUEZ ORTIZ, Yazmín Bárbara. The Right, the United States and 21st Century Imperialism in Latin America. UH [online]. 2020, n.290, pp. 113-137. Epub Nov 01, 2020. ISSN 0253-9276.
The victories of the political right in the second decade of the 21st century in Latin America have generated debates in the academic and political spheres in order to understand how they have been possible, despite the rise of progressive governments in the region that, in this environment, showed their possibilities of action for the benefit of society. In order to contribute to the understanding of this phenomenon, this paper analyzes two elements that have been revealed as its essential conditioning factors. First, the articulations of the Latin American right wing with governmental and non-governmental actors in the United States. Second, two modes of action deployed from these articulations with proven success in environments of regional political change: the dispute of meanings and the institutionalization of the political domination of the State, as well as of society, from rational matrices with cultural incidence.
