| Descripción: | This article pretends to study the little explored relations between evangelical political parties and the Trump phenomena in American electoral politics. After analyzing the American impact over the development of evangelical movement of this Central American country this essay explores the discussions about cultural imperialism and identity as key concepts that could explains the analyzed phenomena. The exam of the U.S. influence over the party system of its small neighbor is quite marginal: It seems that the traditional institutional stability of this isthmic democracy has allowed a very autonomous development of its political process in terms of the heavy American influence. In the end, the evangelical political parties do not have any link with the Republican Party, not in financial nor ideological aspects, which means that for this parties Trump´s figure and the 2020 American elections pass by far in terms of their interests and positions about their country public debate. |
