Until recently, Courts were not an important
component of political
science research on Latin America. The quantity of
research on the
judiciary does not compare even remotely to the vast
literature on
others institutions. However, despite the relative
inattention to their
role, courts are institutions whose performance has
concrete and
relevant effects on the socio-political system.
Indeed, Courts have
currently emerged as active participants in the
political process
offering new opportunities to citizens, social
movements, interest
groups, and politicians.
Focusing on three countries of Central America (Costa
Rica,
Nicaragua and Guatemala), this book illustrates how
far the political
system in these countries is shaped in significant
ways by the role of
Courts as political institutions. Throughout a
comparative approach,
this study offers what may be the first
cross-national analysis
explicitly designed to serve as a comprehensive
measure of the
political role of High Courts.
