Omschrijving
Latin American business schools have grown in scale and quality in recent decades, yet their activities and achievements remain largely unreported. This book analyzes the major events, issues, actors, and "blind spots" in management education in Latin America. It then examines the contemporary challenges and critical issues for the future.
This survey of Latin American management education begins with background on the political and economic landscape of Latin America, noting the pressure for change from youth and the middle class. The book then details the evolution of management education in Latin America from the early 20th century to the present; one chapter is devoted to the past 10 years. Several scenarios for growth of management education in Latin America are presented, emphasizing regional collaboration and more schools to encourage healthy competition and quality. Final chapters summarize the current state and future of management education in Latin America.
