The Distributive Issue in Latin America.
Figueroa, Adolfo
International Social Science Journal, v48 n2 p231-44 Jun 1996
Presents the central features of an economic theory of social equilibrium based on the theory of distributive equilibrium. Uses the situation in Latin America in the 1980s and 1990s to test the validity of the theory. Argues that excessive inequality cripples sustained growth and democratic movements. (MJP)
