Reviews
Focusing on the Menem years, the excellent essays assembled by Tulchin and Garland offer stimulating analyses of this veritable democratic capitalist revolution by leading politicians, government leaders, and well-known Argentine and U.S. scholars. Argentina: The Challenges of Modernization is a valuable resource for policymakers, academics, and others concerned with key topics ranging from electoral politics, the judicial system, social policy, and the modernization of public education to the prospects for continued economic growth and the future of market-oriented restructuring., This book marks the most comprehensive and successful effort to date to eavluate the transitions set in motion since Argentina's return to democracy in 1983., Required reading for any scholar of Modern Latin America. These essays are exciting and provocative. . . . They provide us with new hope that Argentina can assume a distinct and respected position within the international community. The book includes perspectives from prominent politicians of the Peronist and Radical persuasions, an assessment of the prospects for democratic development, and evaluation of Menem's economic reforms, and a prescription for education reforms to support both the political and economic changes. An insightful and carefully crafted introduction by Joseph Tulchin and Allison Garland helps locate the essays in their political and historical context.
