Frederick Stirton Weaver

Latin America In The World Economy

Mercantile Colonialism To Global Capitalism

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This text considers the dual aspect of Latin American development: how external factors (phases of world capitalism since Columbus) interweave with internal factors (Latin American culture, politics, and social groups). Within his approach, Weaver demonstrates how domestic social conflicts and power relations have consistently capitalized on changes in the international economy, while, conversely, engagement with the international economy has consistently constrained local struggles and patterns of change.
