LAZO CIVIDANES, Jorge. HEGEMONIC STRUGGLES AND POLITICAL CHANGE: The Advance of the South American Left in Comparative Perspective. colomb.int. [online]. 2007, n.66, pp.96-119. ISSN 0121-5612.
The object of this article is to analyse the recent phenomenon of the left's advance in South America. Besides considering institutional and structural factors which contribute to the comprehension of the left's diverse expressions in the south of the continent, the analysis revolves around ideological and discursive aspects that give unity to the phenomenon. Starting from the hypothesis that the advance of the left in the region is linked to a process of hegemonic fights in societies with structural crisis, this article offers evidence that enlightens possible causal and explanatory factors of such a phenomenon from the perspective of discursive theory.
