Government and the Economy on the Amazon Frontier.
Inexpensive, relatively uninhabited land still exists in many Latin American countries.

The current pattern of development often results in violent conflict and wasteful environmental damage. For this reason, governments in Latin America are increasingly struggling to develop policies to rationalize the settlement and development of these areas.
