TREMINIO SANCHEZ, Ilka. Central American Presidential Re-election Reforms in the New Century: Three Attempted Reforms and a Coup D'état. Polít. gob [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.1, pp.147-173. ISSN 1665-2037.

Central American countries entered the new century seeking to change the rules governing presidential re-election. All of the attempts studied have sought to relax the presidential term limits. In accordance with this behavior, this study seeks to understand the conditions that led to the success of presidential reform. For this purpose, we have developed a comparative qualitative analysis method that aims to determine the circumstances that shaped the experiences of those leaders who took steps towards achieving re-election modification.
