Abstract

The article discusses the duration and dissolution of cabinets in presidential democracies in Latin America in relation to the dissolution of cabinets in parliamentary systems. Topics include political polarization of cabinets in relation to political parties, the impacts of economic crises on cabinet dissolution, and the effects of electoral volatility on cabinets. It is said that the improvement of a nation's economy tends to lend stability to a cabinet, while economic crises do not create the results predicted by stochastic event theories.
