South America’s Economy: Booms, Busts, and Transformations (4 in 1)

South America’s Economy delves into the dramatic rises, falls, and reinventions of four major economies: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Venezuela. This 4-in-1 collection offers a sweeping view of a continent shaped by political upheaval, resource wealth, policy experiments, and the constant push-pull between growth and crisis. From hyperinflation to privatization, oil booms to currency collapses, this volume captures the complexity and volatility of the region’s economic story.

Argentina’s economic crises highlight the consequences of policy missteps and external shocks, revealing how a once-thriving nation became a case study in recurring collapse. Brazil’s economic evolution shows a journey through industrialization, reform, and global integration, alongside persistent inequality and corruption. Colombia’s transformation tells a story of resilience—rising from the shadows of conflict to emerge as a growing economy with expanding global ties. Finally, Venezuela presents perhaps the most extreme example of economic meltdown in recent memory, offering crucial lessons about dependency, mismanagement, and populism.

Whether you’re a student, global observer, or simply curious about South America’s economic puzzle, this book provides both historical depth and modern relevance to help you understand the region's shifting fortunes.
