Review
"An excellent text; the best there is in English on Chile."--Mark Van Aken, California State University
"A comprehensive socioeconomic and political history of Chile from the time of the Spanish conquest to the end of the 1980s."--Hispanic Journal
"As was the case with the first edition, students enjoyed this book....[The] introduction is quite good."--Douglas W. Richmond, University of Texas at Arlington
Praise for the first edition: "The best comprehensive history of Chile in our language."--Paul Drake, Alternativas
"The best single volume on Chilean history."--Charles Berquist
"Well-written, well-organized, and provides all the relevant information required for a basic understanding of Chile's history. It should be welcome."--Luis Ortega, Journal of Latin American Studies
Praise for the new Second Edition: "Excellent text; clear and straightforward in its treatment of Latin American politics and history."--James P. Gomer, Waitburg College
Product Description
A comprehensive socioeconomic and political history of Chile from the time of the Spanish conquest to the 1980s, this book focuses on the continuity of themes and issues in Chilean society over almost five centuries. By tracing the development of "Hispanic capitalism" in the era of conquest, and exploring its transformation during the 19th and 20th centuries, Loveman provides a coherent chronological and thematic interpretation of Chile's historical development. With new information on the military government, economic and social change, agrarian reform, and labor, education, and public policies in the 20th century, this revised edition remains the preeminent book on Chile.
