“A Business History of Latin America is a long-needed book on a dynamic, diverse, and exciting continent. This volume fills an important gap in business history and will serve as a model for similar efforts for other emerging economies.” Tarun Khanna, Jorge Paulo Leman Professor, Harvard Business School
“A Business History of Latin America is an innovative overview that includes case studies on contemporary Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Mexico. But the menu of subjects is much richer since it covers families in business in Latin America, business groups, multinationals, security challenges for companies and green business. A great book for courses!” Carlos Marichal, El Colegio de México
