Focusing on the post-1990 period, this volume addresses why some policies and some countries have been more successful than others in meeting this dual challenge. Two features of the volume stand out. First, whereas some analysts tend to generalize for Latin America as a whole, this group of authors underscores the striking differences of achievement among countries in the region and illustrates the importance of understanding these differences. The second feature is the range of expertise within the volume. In addition to the volume editors, the contributors are Alan Angell, Daniel Brinks, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, José de Gregorio, Alejandro Foxley, Evelyne Huber, José Miguel Insulza, Juliana Martínez Franzoni, Patricio Navia, Francisco Rodriguez, Mitchell Seligson, John Stephens, Jorge Vargas Cullell, and Ignacio Walker. 606 $aDemocracy$zLatin America 607 $aLatin America$xPolitics and government$y1980- 607 $aLatin America$xEconomic conditions$y1982- 615 0$aDemocracy 676 $a321.8098 701 $aMainwaring$b Scott$f1954-$0119436 701 $aScully$b Timothy$0127056 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786050903321 996 $aDemocratic governance in Latin America$93706534 997 $aUNINA
