South American Nations Embrace Free Markets, but Can It Hold?
Much of South America is experiencing stronger growth. The question is whether the benefits come quickly enough to outrun politics.
TL;DR
- South America is shifting towards market-oriented reforms and conservative leadership.
- Countries like Argentina and Paraguay have elected leaders campaigning on deregulation and reduced government spending.
- These market-oriented reforms have delivered economic stability and growth.
- This contrasts with urban America, which is seen as flirting with socialism.
