Its subjects include the nineteenth-century rise of British trade, merchants and explorers, of investment and railways, and of British imperialism. Spanning the period from the Napoleonic Wars until the end of the twentieth century, it provides a comprehensive history of the unique British community in Argentina. Later sections examine the decline of British influence in Argentina from World War I into the early 1950s. Finally, the book traces links between British multinationals and the political breakdown in Argentina of the 1970s and early 1980s, leading into dictatorship and the Falklands War. Combining economic, social and political history, this extensive volume offers new insights into both the historical development of Argentina and of British interests overseas. 410 0$aBritain and the World 606 $aHistory 606 $aLatin America?History 606 $aGreat Britain?History 606 $aImperialism 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aPopular Science in History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q33030 606 $aLatin American History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/718020 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717020 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/722000 606 $aEconomic History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aLatin America?History. 615 0$aGreat Britain?History. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 14$aPopular Science in History. 615 24$aLatin American History. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aEconomic History. 676 $a982.00421 700 $aRock$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01156746 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483240203321 996 $aThe British in Argentina$92848648 997 $aUNINA
