This essay provides practical advice about how to do transparent and reproducible data analysis and writing. We note that doing research in this way today will not only improve the cumulation of knowledge within a discipline, but it will also improve the life of the researcher tomorrow. We organize the argument around a series of homilies that lead to concrete actions. (1) Data analysis is computer programming. (2) No data analyst is an island for long. (3) The territory of data analysis requires maps. (4) Version control prevents clobbering, reconciles history, and helps organize work. (5) Testing minimizes error. (6) Work *can* be reproducible. (7) Research ought to be credible communication.

This articles analyzes how Uruguay, a country that historically grounded its collective identity on civil premises, attempted to reconstruct it after that vision was shattered by the mounting political violence of the 1960s-70s and the civilian-military dictatorship that ruled the country from 1973 to 1985. At the basis of this process, the article identifies the ongoing debates and demands by sectors of society to come to grips with the legacy of authoritarianism in a way that restored legal accountability, truth and justice as basic to core national principles. It claims that this process prompted a critical vision of earlier understandings, which has enabled the coexistence of opposing worldviews without eroding democracy, unlike in the past. The Uruguayan case is of particular comparative relevance for societies where contestation often spills over into political polarization, civil wars and human rights violations.

This paper discusses the likely impact on job incentives of the introduction of a Citizens’ Basic Income. We try to explore whether this proposal would fail because it would cause a massive retreat from the labour market or, on the contrary, this is not a plausible scenario and therefore the proposal is feasible and sustainable in this respect. To this aim, we use formal game theoretical models, since they have several advantages compared with simple intuitive mental speculation. The paper concludes that, as Basic Income supporters argue, the proposal is feasible and sustainable in the most empirically plausible scenarios.

Mainstream literature in political science confers to institutions a key role in the formation, performance and fall of governments. In the meantime, studies on coalition theories did not, in their majority, escape from this neo-institutionalist approach. Based on the late Mexican constitutional reform which made the formation of coalition governments in the country possible, we shall compile and test most of the arguments on the institutional impacts on coalitions, and test them through the Latin American experiments, using a configurational comparative approach (QCA). As a result, we expect to add nuance to most of the neoinstitutionalist arguments.

An explanation of the recent wave of constitutional changes in favor of more permissive reelection rules in Latin America is presented based on a principal-agent model of intraparty relations within the presidential party. The theoretical model suggests causal mechanisms through which institutionalized presidential parties constrain the decision to scrap term limits. The theoretical implications are tested using both quantitative and qualitative evidence. Results from logistic regression suggest that the likelihood of removing term limits in Latin American countries (1990-2013) significantly declines with the level of presidential party institutionalization. Case study evidence illustrates the operation of the theoretically-derived causal mechanisms.

En Segmented Representation, Juan Pablo Luna aborda una cuestión esencial de la política y en especial de las campañas políticas modernas en democracias con sistemas de partidos estables, con niveles variables de identificación política y con crecientes niveles de voto personal. Los candidatos y los partidos segmentan sus mensajes y sus estrategias de representación para acomodarse mejor a las distintas realidades de sus potenciales bases de apoyo buscando, a la vez, mantener cierta coherencia y armonía en sus plataformas políticas.
在《分割代表》一书中，胡安·巴勃罗·卢纳(Juan Pablo Luna)探讨了政治的一个关键问题，特别是在政党制度稳定、政治认同水平不同、个人投票水平不断提高的民主国家的现代政治竞选。候选人和政党细分其信息和代表策略，以便更好地适应其潜在支持基础的不同现实，同时寻求在其政治纲领中保持一定的一致性和和谐。

Flavia Freidenberg, F. Aparicio
2015 fue un ano muy complejo para Mexico. No solo porque celebro unas elecciones criticas, que suponian la implementacion de una reforma electoral constitucional compleja, sino porque se dieron en un contexto de alta conflictividad social, inseguridad y violencia politica, y en el marco de un cada vez mayor descontento ciudadano respecto de la politica. A tres anos del inicio de su mandato, el presidente Pena Nieto experimento un escenario economico adverso y una caida significativa en los niveles de aprobacion ciudadana tras diversos sucesos como la tragedia de Ayotzinapa, denuncias por corrupcion y las dificultades para satisfacer las expectativas de la ciudadania sobre el crecimiento economico. Gracias a una fragmentacion inedita del voto, la coalicion gubernamental logro mantener la mayoria en el Congreso.
