About this book

"Reports that the reform process of the late 1980s negatively impacted urban families, particularly those engaged in informal sector activities. Notes that rural families experienced less severe declines in protein and calorie intake, as well as fewer negative changes in the composition of their diets. Provides a detailed view of survival strategies, market responses, and the organization of social and producer relations"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
