Author: Martin Howard Sable
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 9780866568999
Category : Latin America
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
An ideal resource for researchers and scholars interested in Latin American studies, this unique and valuable guide identifies individuals born between the years 1700 and 1910 who are or were engaged in some activity concerned with Latin America in general or any of its nations or regions. While the majority of Latinamericanists cited here served as university professors, diplomats, and business people, the list of notable experts includes artists, attorneys, authors, bankers, clergy, explorers, economists, geologists, and journalists. For each entry, the author has listed each individual's full name, profession, employer, and two of his publications, thereby indicating his or her Latin American interests. The fascinating array of topics that these pioneers have addressed in their books include subjects that have been studies extensively, as well as those subjects that have barely been reviewed. A valuable feature of the book is the history of Latin American studies, written by pioneer Dr. A. P. Nasatir, Research Professor of History Emeritus at San Diego State University, who began teaching in the United States in 1928. Faculty, students, and researchers interested in Latin American studies will find this book valuable.

Oil and Mexican Foreign Policy
Author: George Grayson
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh Pre
ISBN: 0822976498
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
The discovery of enormous oil reserves in the early 1970s revolutionized Mexico's economy and political behavior, bringing soaring revenues and industrial development. The oil glut of 1981 and wild fluctuations in world prices, pushed the country to the brink of bankruptcy. George W. Grayson describes how the roller-coaster economic ride, shrill nationalism, political assertiveness, and arrogant posturing of the 1970s have given way to greater professionalism, fiscal responsibility, and a cooperative attitude towards the United States in recent times.

Mexico
Author: Robert E. Quirk
Publisher: Prentice Hall
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Mexico's early history is marked by violent rebellion, social upheaval, and meagre progress. By contrast, twentieth-century Mexico has successfully embarked on a path of peaceful revolution which has the Gross National Product as its hero instead of the traditional villa of zapata. This is an account of Mexico's often stormy growth from semifeudal states to a modern united nation.
