• Sommario/riassunto: Twenty-first century Latin America is rich in history, culture, and political and social experimentation. In this fascinating and insightful analysis, Gian Luca Gardini looks at contemporary developments at three interconnected levels: state, regional and global. Overall, Gardini argues that despite the numerous challenges to be faced, Latin America is now more wealthy, autonomous and better placed in global geopolitics than at any time in its recent history.
