Overview
"Claudio Loser, with highest credentials as analyst of Latin America economic, social and political issues and influential contributors to the region’s multilateral cooperation efforts, provides both an analytical masterpiece and a first-hand testimony of the efforts to improve the future of Latin America. An indispensable and fascinating read." - MICHEL CAMDESSUS, Managing Director, International Monetary Fund (1987–2000), Governor Bank of France (1984–87)
"Claudio Loser has written a superb book on Latin America, focusing on economic performance. It is rigorously researched, unusually insightful, and impressively wide-ranging. To anybody interested in understanding a complex and fascinating region, Loser is a splendid guide." - MICHAEL SHIFTER, President (2010–22), Senior Fellow, Interamerican Dialogue; Professor, Georgetown and GWU
"Latin America has made progress in recent decades but has lagged its cohort. In this thorough book, Claudio Loser engages in a fascinating analysis of the region from different perspectives. The book shows the author’s intimate knowledge, and deep identification with Latin America and the Caribbean, well beyond macroeconomics. Long term growth, poverty and income distribution, trade, and many other areas are covered, with strong suggestions for the future. A must-read book." - REBECA GRYNSPAN, Secretary-General UNCTAD, UN Under-Sec. Gral (2010–14), Vice President Costa Rica (1994–98)
