Spanish to English Social Sciences Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.

This is a word in the RAE. (http://dle.rae.es/?id=3ul2fDw) So, we've got a working definition: 1. m. Práctica de conferir con excesiva frecuencia a las asambleas el poder de tomar decisiones.

The author is fond of little-known words, so, to maintain his voice, pretty much anything goes.

TIA! Spanish (from where??) to UK English


Original
Sin que ninguna previsión constitucional lo respalde, los partidos políticos se han lanzado a controlar todas y cada una de las parcelas a las que han podido acceder. Y dentro de ellos, unas minorías se han asentado para limitar tanto o más la participación de los demás.
De ello deriva, en gran medida, que proposiciones de índole más o menos *** asamblearia *** suenen bien. Es lógico que se intuyan como remedio al uso y abuso de concentraciones del poder.

Rough draft
Without any constitutional provision to back it, the political parties have set out to control each and every area they have been able to access. And within the parties, minorities have set out to limit the participation of others as much or even more. So, it follows that to a large extent proposals of a more or less generally *** ‘assemblist’ *** nature tend to sound good. It is also logical that they would be seen as a remedy to the use and abuse of concentrated power.
