Continuismo (English: Continuism) is the practice by incumbents of keeping themselves in office beyond legal term limits for their elected office, often a result or cause of democratic backsliding and the erosion of human rights. Some Latin American heads of state indefinitely extend their rule by way of reducing or abolishing term limits, via constitutional revision.
