Civilizing Argentina: Science, Medicine, and the Modern State

Civilizing Argentina: Science, Medicine, and the Modern State After a promising start as a prosperous and liberal democratic nation at the end of the nineteenth century, Argentina descended into instability and crisis. This book demonstrates that Argentinas turn of fortune was the ironic consequence of schemes to civilize the nation in the name of progressivism, health, science, and public order.
