| Popis | This research addresses the imbalance between the predominantly European-focused literature on Green Parties and the limited scholarly attention devoted to Latin America. It does so by mapping the current landscape of the Green party family in the region and the applicability of established theoretical frameworks. The study identifies the key factors influencing votes for Green Parties through Logistic Models on a dataset of 150 competitive elections across 15 Latin American countries (1985–2024). The findings reveal that the determinants of Green Party success in Latin America largely parallel those observed in Western contexts, with socioeconomic factors being associated with Green Parties' presence and decentralisation with electoral performances. |
