Dominican Republic
Index
The Dominican Republic did not have the large number of
interest groups and the intensely competitive pluralism
found in
larger, more advanced nations. In the 1970s and the 1980s,
a
growing number of private associations started to fill the
organizational vacuum that many Dominicans held primarily
responsible for their nation's history of instability.
That
process remained incomplete, however, and the falta de
organización (lack of organization) was still the bane
of
national life.
Data as of December 1989
