Produktbeschreibung
After century-long struggles to develop its
economies in a sustainable way, Latin America
experienced a significant political change at the
beginning of this century: In a majority of the
countries in the region leaders from left-wing
parties were elected as president. This is
important, since it is a major shift in the region s
political orientation. The book discusses the
reasons behind this change. However, the main
research question to be answered in this book is
whether this political move in Latin America is
simply populism or a real step towards a new socio-
economic and political model. The answers to this
question are derived from a qualitative analysis,
which examines in detail the measures taken and
policies implemented by left-wing politicians in the
region, with a focus on the three sample countries
Brazil, Peru and Venezuela. Finally, the book
introduces a model analysing various economic,
social, politicaland environmental factors in all
Latin American countries and their alterations since
the beginning of this century. The results of this
analysis allow a general assessment of the current
situation and the future potential of each country.
