Originally published in Argentina in 2019 and now finally available
in English, Luzzi and Wilkis's acclaimed book traces the history of
the economic, social, and political relevance of the dollar in
Argentina and its popularization over the years. How did the dollar
come to play such a leading role in Argentina's national existence?
How and why did this global currency become a local currency on the
other end of the Western hemisphere? Through the reconstruction of
the social and cultural history of the US dollar in Argentina,
Luzzi and Wilkis provide original insight into this sidebar of the
dollar's history, showing how it became a "local" currency even
outside its country of origin.
