| Samenvatting |
In this timely and provocative study, Robinson challenges received wisdom on Latin America. He starts with an exposition on the new global capitalism. Then, drawing on a wide range of historical documentation, interviews, and social science research, he proceeds to show how capitalist globalization has throughly transformed the region, disrupting the conventional pattern of revolutionary upheaval, civil wars, and pacification, and ushering in instead a new transnational model of economy and society. Beyond his focus on Central America, Robinson provides a critical framework for understanding development and social change in other regions of the world in the age of globalization. |

| Samenvatting |
Poverty Reduction Strategies, PRSs, are the new buzzword in development aid. Some 70 developing countries have already elaborated a PRS in response to the requirements of the IMF, the Worldbank and the bilateral agencies as a precondition for rolliong over past debts or obtaining new assistance. While it may be premature to reach conclusions for local policy making and political processes, are already becoming clear. |
