Politics and Urban Growth in Buenos Aires, 1910–1942: Cambridge Latin American Studies, cartea 74

Autor Richard J. Walter
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 oct 2003
Buenos Aires is Argentina's national capital and largest city. This book, first published in 1994, describes the development of the city during the period from 1910 to the early 1940s. It focuses on the role of politics and local government in the evolution of the city, detailing elections, party competition, and debates on important public works issues. The political story is set within the larger context of the overall growth of the capital. This is the first work to cover comprehensively the history of the city for this period and the first to concentrate on the neglected topic of local government.
