Description: "Traces the main tendencies of the Colombian economy during the 1980s. A solid macroeconomic review and an analysis of the handling of foreign debt explain how Colombia escaped the 'lost decade.' This examination is coupled by an overview of the decade's political swings, marked especially by successive government's handling of the guerrillas and the increasingly violent drug trafficking groups. The book is rounded off by a balance of the decade's social change: although some progress was achieved, it was not necessarily equitable"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
