Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Spanish America. 1900-1970. Tradition and Social Innovation. Previous owners name and date to inside cover. The most noteworthy feature about succeeding generations of Spanish American national leaders has been their awesome success in preserving the traditional social order against the multiple forces of change. In this valuable study of Spanish America in the twentieth century, Professor Pike argues that different countries have employed varying methods to maintain the traditional two-culture society, made up of a dominant dependent sub-culture. In Bolivia and Mexico measures of social paternalism gained the quiescence of the masses. Minto changes in the political system (in Chile and Peru) and more radical innovations (in Venezuela and Uruguay) were sufficient to maintain the traditional society, whereas in Argentina and Colombia the status quo was only restored after the opening stages of a social revolution. Only in Cuba did the old order collapse, undermined by middle-class alienation and mass discontent, and, for the first time in the history of Spanish America, a society radically different from the traditional one emerged.
