Latin America's recent development performance calls for a multidisciplinary        analytical tool kit. This handbook accordingly adopts a political-economy        perspective to understand Latin American economies. This perspective is not new to        the region; indeed, this volume consciously follows the approach pioneered by        political economist Albert O. Hirschman a half century ago. But the nature of the        political and economic processes at work in Latin America has changed dramatically        since Hirschman's critical contribution. Military dictatorships have given way to an        uneven democratic consolidation; agricultural or primary-product producers have        transformed into middle-income, diversified economies, some of which are leading        examples of emerging markets. So, too, the tools of political-economy have developed        by leaps and bounds. It is therefore worthwhile to take stock of, and considerably        extend, the explosion of recent scholarship on the two-way interaction between        political processes and economic performance.A unique feature of the book is that it        begins with a group of chapters written by high-level academic experts on Latin        American economics and policies who also happen to be current or past economic        policy makers in the region, including Fernando Henrique Cardoso (former president        of Brazil), Andres Velasco (former Chilean finance minister), Luis Carranza (former        Peruvian finance minister), Martin Redrado (former governor of the Argentina central        bank) and Luciano Coutinho (president of Brazil's national development bank). These        contributors draw upon their academic expertise to understand their experience in        the trenches of policy making.
