Leon Fink seminar at the University of Melbourne
Neo-Liberalism Before Its Time: Free Trade and Social Democracy in the Era of the ‘Great Compression’, 1945-1972
22 September 2015 at 5pm – South Lecture Theatre, Old Arts, University of Melbourne
The social history of Iberian America and the Philippines, when they belonged to the Spanish Empire, is a broad field of interest that has often been underrepresented in the academic world. In fact, most programs of seminars or publications with a social perspective focus on the period after independence, and concentrate on industrial development, urban expansion, syndicalism and socialism. There are no real intellectual reasons for this limitation.
