Abstract:
The region struggles to define and defend its social contracts and expand the benefits and obligations of citizenship. These inherently collective tasks challenge atomized societies. Organizations—the public administration, political parties, civil society—overcome the obstacles of atomization but are weak in the region: strengthening the social contract in Latin America and the Caribbean demands more robust organizations.
