State Formation and Democracy in Latin America, 1810-1900 Hardcover - 2000
by Fernando Lopez-Alves
First line
Before delving into the book's main thesis in detail, we must place Latin America in a broader context of state making.
From the rear cover
"Instead of wringing his hands about failures of nineteenth-century Latin American states to match European models or retreating into mysteries of their culture, Fernando Lopez-Alves boldly places Latin American state formation in historical and comparative perspective. The result is a fresh, informed view of political change during a struggle-filled century."--Charles Tilly, Columbia University
