Kaplan explores the effect of globalization on Latin American economic policy-making. It investigates why left-leaning politicians from countries with high poverty and wage inequality adopt market-oriented policies. A new form of austerity politics has surfaced where politicians signal their good governance with budgetary discipline yet simultaneously direct spending to supporters.
