Great Decisions Lecture Series: Latin America’s Falling Economies
As part of the Great Decisions lecture series, GCIV welcomes Emory University Associate Professor Tom Rogers to discuss the political climate of Latin America.
The pendulum of Latin American politics is swinging rightward once again. Yet as the “pink tide” recedes, the forces of change have more to do with socioeconomics than ideology. Dramatic economic and political crises have coincided in countries like Brazil and Venezuela. Still, the final result for Latin America may be the emergence of centrist, pragmatic modes of governance, and with them, opportunities for the U.S. to improve relations. The new administration must look beyond the neoliberal model of the 1990s, and develop an approach to relations fit for the 21st century.
Events in this series cost $40 and includes a briefing book. A $10 companion book can be bought.
