"Since the early 1980s, Latin American countries have been innovative in a range of policy and cultural experiences, including health care, voting, pensions, and multiculturalism. And yet, their policy innovations are rarely found in textbooks. This book addresses that gap, providing a fascinating and wide-ranging exploration of both the history of "looking down" at Latin America and the political, economic, and cultural "lessons" (including successes, failures, and unintended consequences) that should inform important policy discussions around the world."...pub. desc. 4aHistoria social  4aCiencia PolíticazAmérica Latina xHistoria  4aPolítica social 4aAmérica Latina xPolítica social 1 aBowman, Kirk,
