Reviews"Webber's book is a welcome but sobering contribution to a literature on the existential crisis of what some in the last quarter century called the left and others referred to, following the EZLN, as "civil society." --Heather Williams in Latin American Perspectives, "[Webber's] marxist analysis, informed by a grasp not only of the extensive literature on contemporary Latin American politics but also firsthand experience of many of the continent's social movements, offers a complex and subtle analysis the rise to power and then the crisis of [Latin America's] leftist governments, parties, and societies... Today, with many of these states in profound economic and political crises, Webber's new book, most accessible for Latin American specialists and those interested in leftist political theory, provides us with a guide to understanding the challenges and in some cases the catastrophes they face. Professors of Latin American studies will want to use this in their graduate seminars, as I am this fall, while those interested in contemporary Latin American situation or in the application of Marxist political theory to actual contemporary situations will find this book to be stimulating." --Dan LaBotz, New Politics, "Over the past few years, Jeffery Webber has been one of the most prolific leftist critics of progressive or 'Pink Tide' governments in 21st-century Latin America...This book...is strong on both theory and empirical content...he presents cogent arguments in a cohesive way, and backs them up with a wealth of empirical evidence." --Steve Ellner in Science and Society
