In place of broad assertions about the 'political culture' of an entire subcontinent, it provides a sharply focused and historically informed analysis of one key regularity in the political behavior of national leaders across this large and diverse region. Exile politics offers an alternative to the gulag and to uncontrollable civil conflict. This pattern is deeply rooted in Latin America but almost entirely absent from the Anglophone world. It is recognized and taken into account by the entire political community and persists after democratization as well as under authoritarian rule. Professors Sznadjer and Roniger have made a real breakthrough in the study of comparative political behavior.'

The work is the first systematic analysis of Latin American exile on a continental and transnational basis and on a long-term perspective. It traces variations in the saliency of exile among different expelling and receiving countries; across different periods; with different paths of exile, both elite and massive; and under authoritarian and democratic contexts. The project integrates theoretical hindsight and empirical findings, analyzing the importance of exile as a recent and contemporary phenomenon, while reaching back to its origins and phases of development. It also addresses presidential exile, the formation of Latin American communities of exiles worldwide, and the role of exiles in shaping the collective identities of these countries.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1.
