Original language description
When military talks into politics. Explaining the causes of military interventions in politics in Latin America The relation between the state and the armed forces is often crucial for the survival and the quality of democratic regimes. Despite the existence of rich theoretical literature about civil-military relations, comparative research about the influence of the military on politics in contemporary democratic regimes is largely missing. In one of the few studies on this topic, Rollin F. Tusalem (2013) suggests that high influence of the military in politics has deleterious effect on the quality of democracy. Unfortunately despite the importance of this finding, we know relative little about the causes of this influence. Inspired by classic research about this topic by Robert Putnam (1967), this study examines the causes of military influence into politics in 16 competitive regimes in Latin America between 2004 and 2012. The results highlight the importance of the social mobilization, degree of civil society participation and previous military interventions.
