Can Latin America Compete? : Confronting the Challenges of Globalization

Will Asia's rise mean Latin America's demise? This volume takes a realistic look at the conceptual, policy, and practical aspects of Latin America's competitiveness - regionally, globally, and even locally. The authors zero in on strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and opportunities for western hemisphere nations in an increasingly competitive business environment. In their frank and direct assessment - pulling no punches - the authors also present viable courses of action that Latin America can take to increase its ability to compete in the global economy.
