Description

Batlle’s ideas proved to be too much for voters to accept. Nevertheless, he skillfully rescued part of his program and laid the groundwork for future reforms. As masterfully related in this concluding volume of Milton Vanger’s trilogy, the story of Batlle and this short episode in Uruguay’s history is significant far beyond its time. Even today, Batlle’s legacy looms over current politics in the country much as FDR and the New Deal Coalition do in the United States. Arguably, no other single topic is more important in Uruguay’s political history.
