Latin America's Economic Future (Seminars In Applied Economics) - Hardcover
In the 1990s, several Latin American economies have shown signs of recovery from the debt crisis. Growth is most evident in countries that have adopted 'market friendly' policies, including trade liberalization, balanced budgets and monetary restraints.
Latin America's Economic Future identifies the key steps in these policy reforms and looks at the factors that may cause recovery to prove unsustainable. Drawing on a diverse range of contributions from scholars with a detailed knowledge of Latin America, this book is a well-informed and balanced assessment of the future course of Latin American economies, as well as a clear indication of the issues on which development is most vulnerable. It examines how these policies have been implemented, and how effective they have been in practice. It also questions whether recovery is threatened by distributional conflicts, institutional failures, and dependence on unsustainable capital flows. It looks at whether growth can be extended to countries that continue to stagnate and concludes by asking whether recent policy trends warrant an optimistic outlook for the region.
