Latin America's Political Economy of the Possible
Beyond Good Revolutionaries and Free-Marketeers
Javier Santiso

Endorsements

"A beautiful and elegant book. A well-argued and convincing thesis: that after centuries of dream chasing, pragmatism has come to Latin America. One passionately hopes that it will not go away."
Olivier Blanchard, Professor of Economics, MIT

"Reading this book is a delight. One of the best works in a long time about the economic and political impulses that are penetrating Latin America today."
Albert O. Hirschman, Princeton University

"This magnificent book, written in a style often reminiscent of such great Latin American novelists as García Márquez and Vargas Llosa, captures the essence of Latin America's transformation today. Delightful and necessary reading for all those who care for the people of this great region and follow its development."
Charles Oman, Senior Economist, OECD Development Centre, Paris

"Here Javier Santiso offers us an original and passionate view of the historic moment that Latin America is actually living through right now. It is required reading for all those who are interested in the region's development."
Ricardo Hausmann, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University

"A brilliant analysis—clear, concise, and a must for all those interested in Latin America."
Jacques de Larosière, former Managing Director, International Monetary Fund
