The central theme of Counterpoints is democracy, its vissitudes and its possibilities in Latin America. Counterpoints is a successful mix of personal experience and meticulous scholarship - a trajectory of O'Donnell's work that starts with the critique of authoritarianism and ends with a close examination of presently existing democracies in Latin America. This book is especially valuable for scholars of democracy and democratization, comparative politics, and Latin American politics.
