This reissue, initially published in 1984, examines the evolution of international financial flows to Latin America since 1945, along with their implications for National Development . The book describes how, in each of the first three decades since the war, a new agency emerged (foreign investors in the 1950s, official aid agencies in the 1960s and multinational banks in the 1970s) which was willing to play a dynamic role in generating new financial flows to theregion. The lack of such an agent in the 1980s, combined with a reluctance onthe part of former investors to maintain their level of assistance culminatedin an economic debt crisis in Latin America which this work seeks to address,asking the crucial question: what measures should be taken ¿ both nationally and internationally ¿ to deal with this critical issue , in a way that will both encourage Latin American Development and avoid a major international financial crisis?
