    Argentina's economic history is a complex and dynamic narrative marked by periods of growth, instability, and deep financial crises. Understanding the evolution of Argentina’s economy requires an examination of its historical context, social dynamics, and key events that have shaped its economic trajectory. From its colonial beginnings to its role in the global economy today, Argentina's economy has been influenced by various internal and external factors, ranging from agricultural production and international trade to political movements and international debt. 
    At the time of its independence in 1816, Argentina had a relatively underdeveloped economy, largely reliant on agriculture, particularly the production of beef and grain. The country’s early economic struggles were compounded by frequent political instability and power struggles, which hindered the development of a cohesive economic strategy. The 19th century witnessed Argentina's agricultural sector become a central pillar of its economy, with exports to Europe fueling growth. However, the country faced several economic setbacks, including trade imbalances, debt accumulation, and conflicts over territorial disputes. 
    The 20th century brought about significant shifts in Argentina’s economic landscape. The country experienced a wave of industrialization, which was supported by government policies aimed at reducing dependency on foreign markets. However, despite periods of prosperity, Argentina’s economy remained vulnerable to global economic trends and the volatility of international trade. The early decades of the 20th century saw periods of rapid growth alongside recurring recessions, and in the mid-1900s, Argentina began experiencing the first of many major economic crises.

    “A love letter to the history, traditions and culinaria of one of the richest and most complex regions of Italy.” —Stanley Tucci In other places, it might seem trite or cliché to say that love is an essential component of cooking, food, and dining. But in the shadow of a still-fuming Vesuvio, the love of everyday life is palpable in Naples: that passion for life is the spirit that guides Neapolitan cuisine. You can taste it in everything.    In this tantalizing tour of the culture and cuisine of Napoli, Marlena Spieler reveals the tastes, sights, and sounds of the city and surrounding area (including its islands) in gorgeous detail. Using her own experiences and conversations with others, both tourists and residents alike, she offers us the rich history of this unique culture and cuisine.    “Part travel guide, part cook's memoir, this charming little book delivers a true taste of a quirky, elusive city.” —Barbara Fairchild, former editor-in-chief of Bon Appetit   “This book ought to come with bread, to sop up the extra goodness sloshing over the sides.” —Clark Wolf, author of American Cheeses, restaurant consultant, food writer   “Traipsing through the foodways of Naples with the legendary Marlena Spieler is pure joy.” —Tia Keenan, author of  The Art of the Cheese Plate and cheese columnist for The Wall Street Journal   “Marvelous to read and a joy to cook from.” —Julia della Croce, Italian food expert and James Beard award winning author of Italian Home Cooking   “[Spieler’s] enthusiasm and knowledge will likely inspire travelers to Italy to add a stop on their trip.” ―Publishers Weekly
