Focusing on the often-overlooked narratives of women and Indigenous communities, this comprehensive history spans over five centuries of Argentina's development. Ezequiel Adamovsky critically examines the impacts of Spanish colonization, including gender subjugation and the violence of the Catholic Church. Key events such as independence, military coups, and the rise of Peronism are explored, alongside the effects of neoliberal reforms. This accessible work offers a nuanced understanding of Argentina's complex social, political, and economic landscape up to the 2019 presidential election.
