What explains civil society participation in policy making in Latin American democracies? Risley comparatively analyzes actors who have advocated for children's rights, the environment, and freedom of information in Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay. Successful issue framing and effective alliance building are identified as 'pathways' to participation.

Amy Risley is Director of the Latin American Studies Program at Rhodes College, USA, where she is also Associate Professor in the Department of International Studies.
