DESCRIPTION:A talk by Sharat G. Lin\n\nWhat can the U.S. learn about democracy from 
 Latin America?\n\nWhile the U.S. champions itself as the exemplary 
 democracy for the rest of the world, in fact, the political systems and 
 electoral practices in many Latin American countries frequently involve 
 more direct citizen participation, offer far more choices, are more fair 
 and secure, and are less likely to result in voter suppression than in the 
 U.S.\n\nSharat G. Lin observed first-hand the referendum election in Cuba 
 which was preceded by an unparalleled process of national consensus 
 building at the grassroots level. He also served as an international 
 election observer in Venezuela, México, and El Salvador and will discuss 
 lessons from these elections as well.\n\nSponsored by Human Agenda\n
