Book excerpt: In this captivating journey through Argentina's rail history, López, Waddell y Martínez present an illuminating narrative spanning 158 years. This translated edition, originally published in Spanish as Historia del ferrocarril en Argentina, offers global readers a unique insight into the country's rail evolution. Navigating previously uncharted historical terrain, this book addresses gaps in prior works. Prior to the 2007 edition, no comprehensive account covered Argentina's railways. Authors broke free from politicized narratives, fostering academic railway historiography. This edition, fortified by a robust bibliography, presents an authentic portrayal of railways' transformative role. Structured into six pivotal periods, the book unveils shifting railway policies. From pragmatic beginnings to private sector involvement, State regulation, and nationalization, each era reflects policy changes. Beyond factual accuracy, the book delves into the influence of public policy on railways. Authors navigate complexities of policy choices and socio-economic impact, offering multi-dimensional insights into Argentina's history. Paddy Farrell's translation ensures resonance in English. Collaborative efforts with authors ensure precision and clarity. Valuable archival photos illustrate each chapter, enriching the reader's experience. The updated bibliography facilitates further exploration. A History of the Railways in Argentina highlights the crucial role of the railway system in shaping Argentina's development and economy. Its absence underscores the challenges faced in modern times. The authors invite readers to uncover Argentina's rail story, bridging language and culture to connect with global history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lewis examines the complex combinations of British and Argentine forces involved in the rapid development of modern Argentina after its former pastoral and parochial socio-economic structure was superseded by the formation of a modern republic, which was largely financed by external sources and made it one of the most dynamic and prosperous countries of the mid and late 19th century. His work demonstrates the conflicting, often contradictory, expectations of the parties concerned, and how these divergent expectations and preconceptions were successfully harmonised and evolved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governance in South America is signified by strategies pursued by state and non-state actors directed to enhancing (some aspect of) their capabilities and powers of agency. It is about the spaces and the practices available, demanded or created to ‘make politics happen’. This framework lends explanatory power to understand how governance has been defined and practiced in South America. Pía Riggirozzi and Christopher Wylde bring together leading experts to explore what demands and dilemmas have shaped understanding and practice of governance in South America in and across the region. The Handbook suggests that governance dilemmas of inequitable and unfulfilled political economic governance in South America have been constant historical features, yet addressed and negotiated in different ways. Building from an introduction to key issues defining governance in South America, this Handbook proceeds to examine institutions, actors and practices in governance focusing on three core processes: evolution of socio-economic and political justice claims as central to the demands of governance; governance frameworks foregrounding particular issues and often privileging particular forms of political practice; and iterative and cumulative processes leading to new demands of governance addressing recognition and identity politics. This Handbook will be a key reference for those concerned with the study of South America, South American political economy, regional governance, and the politics of development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We could not have a global economy without a system to resolve commercial disputes across borders, but the international regime that performs this key role bears little resemblance to other institutions underpinning the global economy. A hybrid of private arbitral institutions, international treaties, and domestic laws and courts, the regime for commercial dispute resolution shows that effective transborder institutions can take a variety of forms. This book offers the first comprehensive social scientific account of this surprisingly effective regime. It maps and explains its evolution since the Industrial Revolution, both at the global level and in the United States, Argentina, and China. The book shows how both political economy approaches and socio-legal theories have shaped institutional outcomes. While economic interests have been the chief determinants, legal processes have played a key role in shaping the form institutions take. The regime for commercial dispute resolution therefore remains between interests and law.

Book excerpt: A major new manifesto for the end of capitalism Neoliberalism isn’t working. Austerity is forcing millions into poverty and many more into precarious work, while the left remains trapped in stagnant political practices that offer no respite. Inventing the Future is a bold new manifesto for life after capitalism. Against the confused understanding of our high-tech world by both the right and the left, this book claims that the emancipatory and future-oriented possibilities of our society can be reclaimed. Instead of running from a complex future, Nick Srnicek and Alex Williams demand a postcapitalist economy capable of advancing standards, liberating humanity from work and developing technologies that expand our freedoms. This new edition includes a new chapter where they respond to their various critics.
