520 |a Latin America's recent development performance calls for a multidisciplinary analytical tool kit. This handbook accordingly adopts a political economy perspective to understanding Latin American economics. 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 have 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 this volume is that it begins with chapters written by high-level academic experts on Latin American economics who also happen to be current or past economic policy makers in the region. This includes Fernando Henrique Cardoso (former Chilean finance minister), Luis Carranza (former Peruvian finance minister), Martín Redrado (former governor of Argentina's central bank) and Luciano Coutinho (president of Brazil's national development bank). These contributors draw upon their academic expertise to undertand their experience in the trenches of policy-making.
