description The Oriental Republic of Uruguay is seen by many as a pioneer among Latin American nations to modernize its state and its policy. Since the late nineteenth century to the twentieth, Uruguayan political actors operate significant changes such as the separation of church and state, labor regulation, divorce law, women's vote, etc. Because of this and the progressive modernization, it was called the “Switzerland of the Americas”. Today, it still stands out in this area by regularizing abortion, homoaffective marriage, liberalization and access to marijuana. Moreover, noteworthy that such measures were achieved largely because of governance that the executive enjoys in the midst of this political system. Thus, this work aims to analyze such Uruguayan political system. In short, a political system is understood by the government system, the electoral system and the party system. That said, it will be analyzed in the political scenario of the country, their characteristics, party and election rules, political parties, party dynamics and relations between the powers.

A República Oriental do Uruguai é tida por muitos como pioneira entre as nações latino-americanas a modernizar seu Estado e sua política. Desde a passagem do século XIX para o XX, os atores políticos uruguaios operam mudanças significativas, tais como a separação entre Estado e igreja, regulação trabalhista, Lei de divórcio, voto feminino etc. Em razão disso e da progressiva modernização, foi chamada de a “Suíça das Américas”. Atualmente, ela ainda se destaca nessa matéria por regularizar aborto, casamento homo-afetivo, liberalização e acesso à maconha. Ademais, digno de nota que tais medidas foram conseguidas muito em função da governabilidade que o executivo desfruta em meio àquele sistema político. Logo, este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar tal sistema político uruguaio. Em síntese, um sistema político é compreendido pelo regime de governo, pelo sistema eleitoral e pelo sistema partidário. Dito isso, serão analisados, no cenário político daquele país, suas características, suas regras partidárias e eleitorais, os partidos políticos, a dinâmica partidária e as relações entre os poderes. 2015-06-01 2022-03-18T19:23:51Z 2022-03-18T19:23:51Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artigo avaliado pelos Pares https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/semaspas/article/view/7114 10.29373/sas.v4i0.7114 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/65052 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/semaspas/article/view/7114/5840 Copyright (c) 2016 Sem Aspas application/pdf Laboratório Editorial Faculdade de Ciências e Letras Revista Sem Aspas ; v.4, n.1, jan./jun.
