内容説明

Thoroughly updated to reflect recent events and trends, this new edition of Understanding Contemporary Latin America treats the range of issues facing the region in the first decade of the twenty-first century. The authors provide current, thorough analyses not only of history, politics, and economics, but also environmental concerns, class and ethnicity, the role of women, religious beliefs, education, and cultural expression. Each topic is covered in an accessible style, while incorporating the latest available scholarship. Maps, photographs, and a table of basic political data enhance the text, which has made its place as the best available introduction to Latin America.
