Description

The Latin American paradox has always astonished me. United by geography with two of the world's most successful nations, blessed with natural resources of every kind, lacking racial, religious, or language differences giving rise to serious violence, and with an extraordinary culture characterized by its diversity and by its continuity, Latin America could be a continent of peace, stability, and prosperity. But the region remains mired in underdevelopment and political instability. The political and economic history of Latin America over the last two centuries is in direct contrast with that of the United States. The consequences speak for themselves, as the historian Claudio Veliz points out: "We are in a New World born at almost the same time to the North and to the South, settled by two great societies, springing from the two greatest empires of modern times. One group began poor, in the North, the other rich, in the South. In 500 years the positions have entirely reversed."
