1 total work
Available for the first time in English, this revised and updated study of the history of Latin America begins with a survey of the late-colonial landscape. It traces the social, economic and political development of the region to the late-20th century, with emphasis on the period since 1930. Chapters are organized chronologically, each beginning with a general description of social and economic developments in Latin America generally, followed by specific attention to political matters in each country. What emerges is a detailed picture of the forces at work throughout Latin American history. Tulio Halperin Donghi is the author of "El Pensamiento De Echeverria", "Un Conflicto Nacional: Moriscos Y Cristianos Viejos En Valencia", "Tradicion Politica Espanola E Ideolgia Revolucionaria De Mayo", "Historia De La Universidad De Bueno Aires" and "Argentina En El Callejon".
