Dependency and Crisis in Brazil and Argentina by Felipe De Oliviera Antunes
In the two largest countries in South America, successive waves of structural reforms adopted in the name of development invariably have ended in disappointment. The promise of development never seems to materialize. Dependency and Crisis in Brazil and Argentina examines why.
"Dependency and Crisis in Brazil and Argentina: A Critique of Market and State Utopias is an excellent study of the tensions between neoliberalism and neodevelopmentalism in these two countriesAntunes de Oliveira's comparative approach and his deep knowledge provide a new, rich history of political and economic disappointment. This study is a major contribution to development studies and Latin American studies." --Michael A. Cohen, The New School "At a moment when dependency theory is having a revival, Antunes de Oliveira's deep and innovative reading of key insights from Latin American dependency theorists is timely. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in efforts to understand trajectories of social, political, and economic change in Brazil and Argentina from a non-Eurocentric starting point." --Ingrid Harvold Kvangraven, King's College
