Tres tendencias de fondo: la primera es que el auge de los personalismos, continúa como una de las principales realidades políticas de América Latina. La segunda consiste en que el auge de la izquierda, que se manifestó con inusitada fuerza entre 2004 y 2007, ha estado cediendo en la mayor parte de la región. La tercera tendencia se refiere a la creciente inserción de América Latina en nuevos escenarios mundiales.

The most serious crisis has taken place in Central America, specifically in Honduras – The global economic crisis, which was unleashed in the United States around September 2008 and soon spread out to the rest of the world, didn’t affect the region in a direct way – The regional economy will already start to recover towards the beginning of next year, and those countries which adopt a more sensible economic policy, like Peru, Brazil or Chile, and probably Mexico, will do that even before and more vigorously – The rise to power of a new American president, the Democrat Barack Obama, also contributed to the creation of a relatively relaxed atmosphere in the political field – The left-turn of the region is reaching an end: with Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, Peru, Colombia and Mexico in a clearly distinct position, the expansion of populist policies already turns out to be impossible.

La crisis de mayor gravedad se ha producido en América Central, concretamente en Honduras - La economía de la región comenzará a recuperarse hacia comienzos del año próximo - El ascenso de Barack Obama ha contribuido a crear un clima de relativa distensión en el campo político - El giro hacia la izquierda de la región está por llegar a su fin.

Living a very different economic situation, a recession and a constriction of the world markets, the populist governments are currently confronted with a tough reality: they are not able any more to go on dispensing money abundantly (money which they do not possess), and now they have to adhere the limits which are set by the reality of their countries.

Con una situación económica muy diferente, con recesión y una contracción de los mercados en todo el mundo, los gobiernos populistas enfrentan ahora el duro reclamo de la realidad: ya no podrán seguir repartiendo dinero a manos llenas (dinero que no es suyo) y tendrán que atenerse a los límites que les impone la realidad de sus países.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END IN VENEZUELA
Chávez has been forced to accept, in a clearly angry state, that Venezuelans did not want to turn their country into a totalitarian dictatorship. The election results in Venezuela may influence the other countries of what we could call the chavista axis, particularly Bolivia.
A REGION IN SEARCH OF ITS DESTINY
Beyond the threat of authoritarian populisms, Latin America’s problem is that it is not fully taking advantage of the favorable economic juncture it faces. Meanwhile, the emphasis its leaders place on redistributing wealth before creating it, impatience over the inequalities between its inhabitants and the instability -or more exactly unpredictability- of its political destinies stop investments from flourishing adequately and hamper growth.
