Power and Politics in the 19th Century River Plate

Rare Books and Special Collections collects journals, and books of exceptional importance from Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Labeled the Southern Cone for its geographic location at the Southern tip of the Americas, this region stands out for its extraordinary contributions to Latin America ranging from economic influence to cultural excellence. This collection has been developed principally through generosity of Robert (ND ’63) and Beverly O’Grady (SMC ’63).

The collection includes books published in the region after 1810 and magazines, newspapers, and journals published after 1830 that highlight the economic, intellectual, political, and social history of the Southern Cone
