This panel aims at outlining and discussing main continuities and changes, as well as diversities and convergences, in political elite recruitment patterns in democratic regimes in Europe and Latin America in the last decades. In particular, papers should elaborate on the increasing role played by technical experts or technocrats in European governments and in Latin American executive and legislative bodies, exploring the variables (institutional, political, economic) that favour it and assessing the consequences of this trend. Papers that deal with relevant case studies or take a comparative approach are welcome.
