Rezensionen
"The book is an attractive combination of theoretical and applied economics. It gives answers to two main questions: What explains the poor growth of the Latin American region over the past thirty years? What explains the diversity in the growth performances of individual Latin American countries in the same period? The legacy of the shocks of the 1980s interacting with the variety of macroeconomic policies (fiscal, monetary, and exchange) can provide satisfactory answers to both questions." - Roberto Frenkel, Principal Research Associate at Centro de Estudios de Estado y Sociedad (CEDES); Honorary Professor, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina

"The poor growth performance of Latin America in the post-market reforms era is one of the central facts - and, in a sense, paradoxes - that development economics must explain. This is particularly so of Mexico, a great performer in 1940-80 and a major reformer but one of the most frustrating stories in recent decades. This collection by one of Latin America's leading development economists is an outstanding contribution to this debate. It is a must-read!" - José Antonio Ocampo, Professor, Columbia University, USA; former Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC); former Finance Minister of Colombia
