| Resumen: |
Este volumen editado estudia la relación entre las grandes empresas y los regímenes dictatoriales latinoamericanos durante la Guerra Fría. La primera sección proporciona un panorama general sobre la historia contemporánea de las corporaciones empresariales y las dictaduras en el siglo XX a nivel internacional. La segunda sección comprende capítulos que analizan cinco casos nacionales (Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Uruguay y Perú), así como un análisis comparativo del sector bancario en el Cono Sur (Argentina, Brasil, Chile y Uruguay). La tercera sección presenta seis estudios de caso de grandes empresas en Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia y Centroamérica. Este libro es una lectura crucial porque proporciona el primer análisis exhaustivo de un tema clave pero poco estudiado en la historia de la Guerra Fría en América Latina. |

| Summary : |
This edited volume studies the relationship between big business and the Latin American dictatorial regimes during the Cold War. The first section provides a general background about the contemporary history of business corporations and dictatorships in the twentieth century at the international level. The second section comprises chapters that analyze five national cases (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay and Peru), as well as a comparative analysis of the banking sector in the Southern Cone (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay). The third section presents six case studies of large companies in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Central America. This book is crucial reading because it provides the first comprehensive analysis of a key yet understudied topic in Cold War history in Latin America. |
