Revue de presse

'Probably the most thorough overview of Latin American economic history presently available ... Furtado's most important characteristic as an economist is willingness to consider economic problems in their total complexity; there are no simplifications here and no easy conclusions ...'. Choice

'Professor Furtado's approach is highly professional. He leads his reader with academic thoroughness from a preliminary analysis of the historical roots of Latin Americna social and economic institutions, through the period of the industrial revolution to a more detailed study of such aspects of his subject as foreign trade, regional integration, agrarian reform and restructuring for the future.' Economist

' ... surprisingly successful, eminently readable and a mine of useful information and ideas for the economic historian or development economist turning his attention to this area ... even the expert might be glad to have this well-informed and well-stocked volume on his shelves.' Economic Journal

Présentation de l'éditeur

This is an introductory survey of the history and recent development of Latin American economy and society from colonial times to the establishment of the military regime in Chile. In the second edition the historical perspective has been enlarged and important events since the Cuban Revolution, such as the agrarian reforms of Peru and Chile, the difficulties of the Central America Common Market and LAFTA, the acceleration of industrialisation in Brazil and the consolidation of the Cuban economy, are discussed. The statistical information has been extended to the early 1970s and the demographic data to 1975.
