Underdevelopment: A Latin American Perspective
"Underdevelopment Is a State of Mind: The Latin American Case" by Lawrence E. Harrison, originally published in 1985, offers a groundbreaking perspective on Latin America's developmental challenges. This seminal work argues that the region's underdevelopment stems not solely from historical colonial legacies, but also from deeply ingrained cultural factors. Harrison delves into the complex interplay of cultural beliefs, values, and attitudes that contribute to economic stagnation and social inequality. He analyzes how these cultural factors, often rooted in traditional societal norms and practices, impede progress and hinder modernization. The book examines various aspects of Latin American culture, including attitudes towards work, time, and authority, and explores how these cultural elements shape economic behavior, political institutions, and social structures. Harrison's insightful analysis provides a fresh understanding of the multifaceted nature of underdevelopment in Latin America, challenging conventional interpretations and offering valuable insights for policymakers and researchers seeking to promote sustainable development in the region.
