The Making of Modern Colombia by David Bushnell
This historical study traces the process of state-building in Colombia from the struggle for independence, territorial consolidation and reform in the 19th century, to economic development and social and political democratization in the 20th century.
"David Bushnell's The Making of Modern Colombia is a timely, important addition to the historiography of Latin America that will certainly stand as the basic English-language text on that countryAs such, it should not only help shape and inform an upcoming generation of students and professional scholars of Colombia, but it should also heighten the awareness and understanding of all in the English-speaking world of this important member of the international community. In this capacity, it may even advance the quantity and quality of dialogue among said countries and peoples." * Journal of Interamerican Studies and World Affairs *
