Latin America on the Move
Latin America is on the move. Newly elected governments in nine countries have rejected the past failed solutions to the problems of poverty, inequality, exclusion, and social justice. Political leaders are seeking new approaches to replace the neo-liberal policies of the Washington Consensus.
This book presents views about the direction of change of five Latin American political leaders. Each essay places the immediate and longer term challenges facing their countries in historical context. These challenges are presented in their own voices, unmediated by the North American press. Together they form a whole, representing a step towards what one leader has described: “in Latin America, integration is a destiny”.
