Latin America at the Crossroads: Domination, Crisis, Popular Movements, & Political Alternatives

As resistance grows to Washington’s imposition of neoliberal policies, Cuban intellectual Roberto Regalado provides a sharp analysis of the issues underlying the conflicts between the United States and the countries of Latin America.
 
Regalado considers the significance of the recent election of a number of leftist governments and addresses the key question for Latin America today: reform or revolution?
 
In an authoritative review of the continual political crises, Regalado discusses the impact of the collapse of the socialist bloc, why socialism has survived in Cuba, and how the strengthening of popular struggles—from the water struggles in Bolivia to the landless movement in Brazil—has led to the strategic and tactical redefinition of political parties and other movements of the Left.
 
A fascinating book for scholars and anyone interested in Latin American politics today.
