Latin America's Quest for Globalization: The Role of Spanish Firms: New Regionalisms Series

Autor Félix E. Martín, Pablo Toral
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 noi 2005
Investments by Spanish firms in Latin America have grown since the early 1990s by taking over many of the state-owned firms put out to tender. Second only to the United States, these investments make Spain one of the largest markets of foreign direct investment for Latin America. This multidisciplinary volume focuses on the emergence of Spanish multinational enterprises in this region. Furthermore, it analyzes the sociological and political consequences of these investments and exhibits several theoretical and methodological approaches that make the book a useful aid for teaching. It is essential reading for those who want to understand structural reforms, their consequences and the international impact of economic reform.

Recenzii

'This is a splendidly written, well-organized, and carefully researched collection of essays on Globalization in Latin America. Its insights and perspectives merit attention from serious students of contemporary Latin American affairs.' Gregory Baker Wolfe, Florida International University, USA ’This is indeed a major intellectual accomplishment...This book is a path-breaking contribution because it analyzes conditions in the home and host countries in a multidisciplinary and systematic fashion...This is indeed a rare and commendable feat...Seldom do you find an edited book with such coherence across chapters...The diversity of disciplinary and methodological approaches provides an outstanding approach to the topic from several angles.’ Juan Carlos Dalmau Lliso, University of Valencia, Spain 'This book provides a rich and diverse set of studies concerning FDI in Latin America that speak to us at multiple levels. The newcomer to the field will find a wealth of information on recent developments, the experienced student of the region will benefit from in-depth analyses, and the more theoretically minded researchers will encounter a valuable source of ideas.' Luis Locay, University of Miami, USA 'Martín and Toral's book ably analyzes the expansion of Spanish companies and FDI in Latin America and introduces English-speaking readers to the extensive Spanish literature on this process.' Journal of Latin American Studies
