This talk will discuss the crisis of Peruvian democracy as an extreme case of 'Democratic Hollowing' in Latin America. Unlike conventional views that focus on power concentration as the natural threat to democracy, the concept of democratic hollowing instead focuses on the threats stemming from power dilution.

Moderated by: Steve Levitsky, Professor of Government, Harvard University; Director of the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies
