“The Impasse of the Latin American Left develops a persuasive, systematic periodization of complex relations between class struggles, progressivisms, the left, and popular movements from the 1990s to the present. The book successfully gives coherence to the chaotic processes of historical change across the region.” - Anderson Bean (Tempest) “In three substantive chapters, the authors clearly and concisely unlock the rise of the first Pink Tide, detailing the complexities behind Leftist governments. . . . Recommended.” - K. R. Shaffer (Choice) “This book argues that antineoliberal ‘plebeian rebellions’ caused the dramatic regional shift to left-leaning governance that took place at the turn of the twenty-first century. As the pendulum swings back towards the right, Franck Gaudichaud, Massimo Modonesi, and Jeffery Webber’s The Impasse of the Latin American Left assesses to what extent ‘progressive’ governments realized the transformative aspirations of those rebellions. Their contributions are deeply anchored in work by and about Latin Americans…. This book offers cogent structural critiques of deeply structural impasses.” - Elisabeth Jay Friedman (Mobilization) "Gaudichaud, Modonesi and Webber have written a book that is extensive in its analysis, constructs a sophisticated explanation of the Pink Tide’s rise, consolidation and ultimate downfall, and that will certainly appeal to those who share their leftist sympathies."- Quintijn B.Kat (Bulletin of Latin American Research)
