MONTERO BAGATELLA, Juan Carlos. Governability: Validity/Invalidity or trend concept. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2012, vol.57, n.216, pp.09-23. ISSN 0185-1918.

The article builds a proposal to define the gover-nability's meaning. We propose to consider governability as a conceptual category for political analysis that may allow incorporating elements from the political regime and the policy regimes. Relating and differentiating the governability's definition with concepts as stability, order, crisis, governance and good governance develops the proposal of the article.
