Sumario:The current reality in Latin America presents substantial changes compared to the past decade. While in Latin America the old predominance of center-left and left-wing governments has given way to a great majority of conservative governments, subregional and regional integration is in clear decline.

The point of greatest interest seems to be in the limitations and challenges in terms of civilian control.
