Latin America: From Dependence to Revolution

James F. Petras

0/5 ( ratings)

This is the only available collection of essays that covers the major countries of Latin America and deals with the critical issues that affect their survival and growth. Focusing on contemporary regimes and governments, these articles explain current [early 1970s] trends and developments in addition to providing a deeper understanding of the underlying forces influencing on-going events. The countries selected for investigation are those where the clearest polar alternatives for development have occurred and whose citizens have experienced intense social-political conflict and prolonged economic crisis. The articles chosen combine concrete factual material with analyses that link them to a broader general discussion concerning the meaning of historical patterns of development. Students of Latin American politics, as well as general readers concerned with present and future events in pivotal and crisis countries, will find this book highly informative.
