Drawing on largely unexplored nineteenth- and twentieth-century
sources, this book offers an in-depth study of Britain's presence
in Argentina. Its subjects include the nineteenth-century rise of
British trade, merchants and explorers, of investment and railways,
and of British imperialism. Spanning the period from the Napoleonic
Wars until the end of the twentieth century, it provides a
comprehensive history of the unique British community in Argentina.
Later sections examine the decline of British influence in
Argentina from World War I into the early 1950s. Finally, the book
traces links between British multinationals and the political
breakdown in Argentina of the 1970s and early 1980s, leading into
dictatorship and the Falklands War. Combining economic, social and
political history, this extensive volume offers new insights into
both the historical development of Argentina and of British
interests overseas.
