Reversal of Development in Argentina: Postwar Counterrevolutionary Policies and Their Structural Consequences

by Carlos H. Waisman

Book Overview

Carlos Waisman has pinpointed the specific beliefs that led the Peronists unwittingly to transform their country from a relatively prosperous land of recent settlement, like Australia and Canada, to an impoverished and underdeveloped society resembling the rest of Latin America. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Customer Reviews

Excellent book.

The work of Dr. Carlos Waisman is outstanding. A unique analysis of the Argentine development. The book explains very well the interaction between internal and external factors that caused the Argentine reversal in development. A very good book to be read by Argentineans.
