Google Preview: Latin American Development from Populism to Neopopulism explores the socio-economic development of Latin America through the periods of populism, military dictatorships, neoliberalism and neopopulism by utilizing a multidisciplinary approach. By analyzing the trends and main socioeconomic structures in each period, Heydt Coca explains the interactions of economic, social, and political spheres. Paradigmatic case studies complement the picture of each period and draw on extensive literature covering economics, history, sociology, and anthropology. Special emphasis is placed on how the world economy constrains the socioeconomic development in the region by examining the influence of international monetary organizations and hegemonic countries. Heydt-Coca answers the complex question of why Latin American countries, blessed with a bounty of natural resources and capable of industrialization, could not escape their role as producers and exporters of primary goods.; Magda von der Heydt-Coca is senior lecturer and assistant research scholar at the Department of Sociology and Program in Latin American Studies at Johns Hopkins University.; Table of Contents Acknowledgments Introduction Chapter 1: Conditions of Emergence of Populism Chapter 2: Populism Chapter 3: Populism Case Studies Argentina and Bolivia Chapter 4: Military Dictatorships and Debt-Led Growth (1965-1985) Chapter 5: Case Study: Chile Chapter 6: The Democratic Period and Neoliberal Agenda Chapter 7: Neoliberal Case Studies Chapter 8: The New Left in Latin America Chapter 9: Neopopulism Case Studies Chapter 10: Conclusion Bibliography About the Author; Download; Google Preview content
