Abstract

Despite the importance of the opposition as a political actor in democratic systems, it has hardly been addressed; few studies examine the role of the opposition in democratic governments. In turn, most of these (mainly case) studies analyze parliamentary democracies where the government-opposition con-figures political dynamics. The role of the opposition in presidential contexts is thus scarce, especially on the subnational level. This paper aims at examining the legislative activity of the opposition in five repre-sentative subnational legislatures in Argentina: Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Entre Ríos, Río Negro, and Santa Fe, during three legislative periods per parliament between 1995 and 2007
