Since then, the left across Latin America has travelled in paths no one could have predicted. Latin American nations from Mexico to Argentina wavered for years between leftism and American-supported neoliberalism, but in recent years the left has experienced a tremendous resurgence throughout the region. However, the left is not unified, and as CastaÃeda, Morales, and their contributors show, it has followed two distinct paths â a more cosmopolitan style leftism, exemplified by Brazil and Chile, and a left fuelled by populist nationalism that has clear debts to PerÃn or CÃrdenas, and is most evident in Venezuela, Mexicoâs PRD, Bolivia, and Argentina. \u003cem\u003eLeftovers\u003c\/em\u003e comprehensively updates this very important story, with country and area specialists contributing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Recommended.
