This collection analyses the impact and influence of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA), whose vision of alternative regionalism has spearheaded Latin America and the Caribbean's collective challenge to neoliberal globalisation in the twenty-first century. Moving beyond normative debates about the project's desirability and descriptive accounts of its initiatives, this volume provides critical analyses that consider equally ALBA's progress, problems, and prospects, and helps the reader understand the dynamics shaping the region.
