Guide to the Perfect Latin American Idiot

Berätta för mig när boken läggs till

By opening the ever-escalating debate regarding Latin America's “underdeveloped” status and cloaking the seriousness of the situation with wit and humor, the Guide to the Perfect Latin American Idiot reached number one status on the nonfiction bestseller lists in many countries in Latin America. It reveals the connection between economic success and cultural values—attitudes toward work, education, health care and community—and the consequence of the Latin American people retaining or evolving these values.

Citat

Natanowicz Fabianhar citeratför 4 år sedan
Just as does most of Latin America’s political and intellectual world, the perfect idiot comes from the lower middle class, very often from a rural background and somehow now rendered penniless.

Natanowicz Fabianhar citeratför 4 år sedan
History advanced according to a preordained script (from slavery to feudalism to capitalism and then socialism, the threshold of a truly egalitarian society). Those guilty of our countries’ poverty and backwardness were two disastrous allies: the bourgeoisie and imperialism.
