What If Latin America Ruled the World?

Resumen del libro

BICENTENNIAL BIG DEAL: 2010 is the 200th anniversary of the first of the revolutions that liberated the nations of South America. Latin American independence began in Colombia, the author's native country, in 1810. Prime fodder for reviews and features. DEVELOPING INTEREST IN DEVELOPING WORLD: The rapid economic growth and demographic expansion of the Global South is primed to become the issue of the next decade. Guardiola-Rivera's keen insights and passionate point of view are must-reads for anyone who wants to understand Latin America on the eve of ascendancy. ENTERTAINING ERUDITION: Guardiola-Rivera is dizzyingly well-read and a bit of an adventurer. His first-hand accounts of touring the continent, combined with a masterful understanding of history and culture, make for a powerful, eye-opening read.
