The financial crisis in Argentina has led to an avalanche of studies
explaining its origins and suggesting remedies. In a broad and in-depth
approach, this book provides a unique overview of the current thinking
about the Argentine crisis and reveals the limitations of the so-called
"Washington Consensus".

"The Fund's analysis of developments in Argentina failed to pinpoint the
growing vulnerability of the Argentine economy during the
1990s." (Mark Allen, IMF)

"This book aims to contribute to the often lacking and much needed
debate on the politics of economic decisionmaking." (From the
Introduction)
