  • Summary

    Institutional variation is not lacking in Latin America's separation of powers system when it comes to endowing legislatures and presidents with policy-making powers. We only witness lack of variation in terms of symmetry across chambers within bicameral systems.

Beyond that limitation, founders have designed an impressive array of policy-making processes across the region.
