Summary
This book analyses the proposals for development and post-neoliberal governance that are emerging in Latin America and look at the place of social and political inclusion, as well as economic growth, within them. Discussions of the region's economy cannot be meaningfully separated from a debate about its politics and in particular, discussion of how social and political resources are distributed. This book discusses the possibilities and limitations of state activism and social/political inclusion after neoliberalism and the extent to which a common regional trend away from the neoliberal state can genuinely be discerned.
