The situation in El Salvador : background, evolution and challenges

Abstract

This work presents a panorama of the reality of the country in the last decades. It is not focused on the exhaustive presentation of figures, but rather it is a qualitative interpretation of the country’s conjunctural reality based on the changes registered in the last three decades; the emphasis will be on the political reading of the national situation. The statistics will be used to the extent that they help as a basis for certain statements, or that numerically express the reality that is described.
