Europe and Latin America in the World Economy

Europe and Latin America in the World Economy examines the impact of economic integration in Europe and Latin America on both the relationship between the two regions and the trilateral relationship among Europe, Latin America, and the United States. Based on the work of a high-level study group held at the Americas Society, the book addresses important economic, political, and foreign policy issues and suggests ways of reinforcing the three economic actors' shared interests.
