Costa Rica has been largely recognized as a democratic and
politically stable country in a region (Central America)
characterized by instability, dictatorships, and social inequality.
Several social and institutional problems have risen during the
last decades, but the country still maintains good social and
health indicators. Historical Dictionary of Costa Rica contains a
chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive
bibliography. The dictionary section has over 1,000
cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics,
economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an
excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to
know more about Costa Rica.
