Reporte de Resultados de las Encuestas LAPOP 2008

Author

Abstract

Las encuestas LAPOP (Latin American Public Opinion Project) son un instrumento útil y relevante en el análisis cuantitativo de las instituciones políticas y su relación con los ciudadanos de los países de América Latina y el Caribe. Este documento analiza las relaciones entre las instituciones políticas y temas como calidad de vida y victimización a la luz de estas encuestas. Los resultados generales muestran que los ciudadanos latinoamericanos tienen percepciones distintas frente a su vida y frente a lo que sucede en su país, y aún ven en la democracia el sistema político más deseable para la conducción de sus países.
