National leaders worldwide are eroding democracy, yet it remains unclear which ones are most likely to undermine democratic institutions and norms. This book bridges differential psychology and comparative politics to develop a theory explaining when and how presidents’ individual differences impact executive governance.
To test the theory, the author developed the Presidential Database of the Americas (PDA), a unique database that contains biographical and psychometric data on Western Hemisphere presidents since 1945. A total of 688 experts on presidents produced 903 evaluations for 228 Western Hemisphere leaders who governed between 1945 and 2021. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with 24 former presidents from ten countries, the author conducts a comprehensive analysis of Latin American presidential constitutional power grabs between 1945 and 2021, when 14% of the rulers attempted to extend their term limits or expand their powers.
These power grabs have been commonplace across regimes, countries, and historical periods, and the list of perpetrators includes some of the region’s most influential leaders. Statistical analyses reveal that dominant and politically inexperienced presidents are more likely to attempt to relax their term limits, while risk-taking and assertive leaders are more inclined to expand their formal powers. These efforts, in turn, have eroded democracy across the region. By treating political leaders’ traits as independent variables, this book offers new insights into the study of democracy, elites, institutions, and the presidency.

감사합니다.
동료가 추천해줘서 Arena King을 해봤는데, 전략 짜는 게 은근 머리를 쓰게 돼서 퇴근 후에 몇 판씩 하게 됩니다.
Spent a couple hours on Pokiig last week going through the puzzle section. A few of the games were more engaging than I expected — kept telling myself one more level and then lost track of time.

Some of the jumps look easy until you actually try them. The physics make Drive Mad surprisingly satisfying when you land a difficult section cleanly.
