There is no reason why the people in LAC countries should be in the economic situation that they are currently in. It is important to note that both regions have the ability to learn from each other. No one country has everything correct, and all have much room for improvement, as the recent recession has demonstrated even the U.S. has room for improvement.

7 Panama’s Style of Pure Capitalism
[Comentario]

A visitor to Panama is immediately struck by the extremes that are in plain sight. Gleaming towers are only a kilometer or two away from crumbling slums. The contrast is reminiscent of Marx’s prophecy that capitalism would produce a world of extreme wealth alongside widespread poverty. Marx’s vision did not come true for most of the world but now there are trends in Central America and Panama that raise questions about the patterns of development in that part of the world. In several South American countries and in Mexico there have been improvements in wealth and prosperity, and those improvements have provided the means to improve the quality of life for the poor. Those countries aspire to establish social capitalism, emulating the examples of Canada and the Scandinavian countries.

Panama has recently achieved some remarkable economic success. Its extremes of wealth and poverty are still conspicuous but there are new developments that augur well for a more widely shared prosperity. There are tourist destinations like Boca del Toro, but the renaissance that is most noticeable and promising is in Colón, the small city at the Atlantic end of the Canal. There are also new trade-related activities in Panama City. The binding essence of these cities and the source of their reinvigorated wealth and prosperity are the Canal, and the lesser known railroad.

[Comentario]

Chile and Costa Rica are two emerging Latin American countries that have achieved exceptional economic success. Each took distinctive paths to reach success. One started from a firm base in agricultural production and tourism and then was able to develop high tech manufacturing. The other started from a firm base in mining and raw materials and then was able to develop financial services. Both have impressive track records of economic growth and have risen in importance on the world stage. However, each country questions whether it followed the correct strategy, and whether the results might have been better if it had pursued the other strategy. This paper discusses whether one strategy or the other was better, and looks at the merits of both strategies.
10 Colombia's Enviable Position
[Comentario]

Colombia is in an enviable position. Its economic growth has remained strong, and is only slightly affected by this economic crisis. It is true that in the past few months Colombia has seen a bit of an economic slowdown caused by a drop in prices of traditional agricultural products. The slowdown, instead of causing businesses to cut back, is opening the door to many other new endeavors.
