Bøker av Rose J. Spalding

This book, first published in 1987, is a solid, analytical exploration of the complex dynamics of the revolutionary economic transformation from 1979 to 1986. It provides a clear picture of the goals, internal debates, external influences and shifting policy decisions which affected the efforts of the Sandinista government.

By tracing the complex relationship between the Sandinista government and the Nicaraguan business elite, this book examines the shifting mix of alliances and oppositions that shaped the Sandinista revolution. Rose Spalding documents responses to the Sandinista government that range from extreme ideological hostility to enthusiastic support.
