Handbook of Latin American Studies, Vol. 76
Beginning with Number 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research underway in specialized areas.
The Peruvian Experiment
Peru's self-proclaimed "revolution"—surprisingly extensive reforms initiated by the military government—has aroused great interest all over Latin America and the Third World. This book is the first systematic and comprehensive attempt to appraise Peru's current experiment in both national and regional perspective. It compares recent innovative approaches to Peru's problems with the methods used by earlier regimes, providing original and stimulating interpretations of contemporary Peru from the viewpoints of political science, sociology, history, economics, and education. Originally published in 1976. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
La revolución peruana
En el Perú de los años sesenta, el desarrollo económico y las transformaciones sociales de las últimas décadas no lograban mitigar la inestabilidad política que se vivía desde los años 30, ni mejorar sustancialmente la integración nacional de la población. Esta evolución fue vista mayoritariamente como clara muestra del agotamiento del modelo de Estado y sociedad vigente hasta ese momento. Las esperanzas de una revolución nacional que rompiera con ese agotamiento sin salida, aparecían como problema y posibilidad de ese Perú demasiado astillado para ser viable. En octubre de 1968, las fuerzas armadas tomaron el gobierno del Estado y propusieron hacerse cargo de esas esperanzas, ...
