Reviews

""Claudia Kedar's excellent analysis shows how the World Bank navigated a course between successive US administrations, which feared the growth of radical nationalism in Latin America, and Argentina, whose continuing political and economic instability made it one of the Bank's most unpredictable, troublesome, and controversial clients."" --Rory M. Miller, University of Liverpool Management School ""This riveting new political economy of the Cold War makes clear that there is a long history of World Bank independence of action in the hemisphere. As the first comprehensive history of its kind, The World Bank and the Cold War in Latin America is vital reading."" --David Sheinin, Trent University
