What are Latin America's prospects for the twenty-first century, in
the face of rapidly changing international conditions and
increasing internal social pressures? In this volume eminent Latin
American scholars and activists explore their collective future.
They analyze a wide range of issues, including economic
alternatives to neoliberal policies, the democratization of state
and civil society, new forms of political organizations, and the
role of women and indigenous peoples as protagonists of social
change. In each case they focus on reconstructing a social justice
agenda for debates about Latin America's future. The discussions
illuminate issues that are not only of direct concern to Latin
Americanists but also of considerable relevance to progressives who
are thinking about new alternatives and new agendas for the United
States. This is of particular importance now that changes in the
global economy are more explicitly linking the future of the United
States to that of Latin America-and by implication, opening up new
imperatives and new opportunities for increased intellectual
exchange within the hemisphere.
