The Liberal Party of Paraguay is the oldest party organization in the country and one of the oldest in the region. During the dictatorships of the 20th century, the party was persecuted, outlawed and encouraged to multiple divisions. Once the dictatorship of general Stroessner (1989) fell and the transition to democracy began, liberalism - then divided into five parties - had to quickly reorganize itself to compete for national and sub-national positions. Despite the doubts and uncertainties regarding its chances of becoming competitive, the electoral results soon showed that the party organization knew how to adapt to the new democratic challenges. This work explores, in an electoral key, the process of reorganization and adaptation of Paraguayan liberalism between 1989 and 2021, dividing party history into three stages: (i) party reorganization (1989-1998); (ii) factional struggle, alliances and government (1999-2013); and (iii) return to opposition and party stability (2013-2021). It shows how internal instability and lack of cohesion is capable of generating external crises (being one of the causes of Lugo's downfall), while, inside, it serves as a source of vitality from its wide range of possible liberal options.

The political antagonista between the Liberal and Conservative parties reached their historical nadir during the second administration of AIfonso López Pumarejo. The Armed Forces were not absent from this confrontation. They were approached to build solidarities or unrest, support or opposition. The Pasto Putsch, just as conspiracy outbreaks of attempts, are evidence of this situation. This article describes and carefully analyzes the episodes surrounding both the period and event in question, how it unfolded, and its historic interpretations. It clearly shows that the subversive radicalism of a Conservative faction, as well as the dissatisfaction and resentment felt by some members of the military, were too evident to detach them from the conspiracy effort.

The year 2007 was characterized by three major and interrelated trends. In the first place, one must note the failed effort of President Duarte Frutos to modify the constitutional clause that prevents him from running for re-election and his all-out effort to reconstitute the stronista model of domination and to impose his candidates to the Presidency and the Vice-Presidency. Secondly, the characteristics of the economic model that produced high growth in agribusiness and the livestock sector while the rest of the sectors remained stagnant and the levels of poverty and indigence increased became more accute. Finally, the electoral tempo increased with consequent judicial-political maneuvering and the controversial primaries of the Colorado Party. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
