Abstract
  • The Sandinistas embarked on a unique and controversial path of democratization between 1979 and 1990 that focused first on expanding human development due to Nicaragua's historical underdevelopment before holding elections. This differs widely from methods advocated still today that emphasize expanding civil and political liberties and holding elections. The purpose of this research is to examine if and how the Sandinistas democratized Nicaragua by evaluating and measuring the success of Sandinista programs that sought to increase human development in the areas of health and education, while also measuring and evaluating changes in civil and political liberties between 1979 and 1990 to ensure these traditional measurements of the quality of democracy were not neglected at the expense of human development. The findings of this research will be discussed in detail below.
