Latin America: February 2003
Good-Bye to the Washington Consensus?
Description: "Latin Americans might have expected, after following the free-market economic policies of the 'Washington consensus' for a dozen years, that the region would have begun to savor the fruits of openness. But with some exceptions-notably Chile, Costa Rica, and much of Mexico-the fruit has turned out to be bitter, as economic openness appears to have accelerated social disintegration."
