Bringing the story up-to-date, this expanded new edition takes into
account recent developments including Argentina's 2001 debt default
and the 2002 presidential election in Brazil. Latin America
provides an introduction to the economic and political history of
the region in the last half century. Beginning with a brief history
of Latin America since 1492, John Ward discusses the interactions
between economic, political and social issues. The discussions
includes: * the long-term background to the 1980s debt crisis * the
effects of neo-liberal free market reforms * relations with the
United States and the wider world * welfare provision in relation
to wider economic issues * social trends as reflected by changes in
the status of women * globalization and environmental debates *
comparisons with the more dynamic East Asian economies. Also
including biographies of the leading figures of the period and an
expanded bibliography, it will provide central reading to Latin
American history students, researchers and the interested general
reader.
