Recenzii

'Probably the most thorough overview of Latin American economic history presently available … Furtado's most important characteristic as an economist is willingness to consider economic problems in their total complexity; there are no simplifications here and no easy conclusions …'. Choice
'Professor Furtado's approach is highly professional. He leads his reader with academic thoroughness from a preliminary analysis of the historical roots of Latin Americna social and economic institutions, through the period of the industrial revolution to a more detailed study of such aspects of his subject as foreign trade, regional integration, agrarian reform and restructuring for the future.' Economist
' … surprisingly successful, eminently readable and a mine of useful information and ideas for the economic historian or development economist turning his attention to this area … even the expert might be glad to have this well-informed and well-stocked volume on his shelves.' Economic Journal
