Carbon Controversies
in Costa Rica
Everyone
needs something to
believe in, and for
many Latin American
progressives, that
something for years
has been Costa Rica.
The country has long
been cited as a
beacon of
progressive
tranquility in a
region better known
for violence,
inequality and
poverty. Following
an uprising in 1948
led by Jose Figueres
Ferrer, the country
embarked on its own
unique path of
social democracy,
involving extensive
progressive
taxation, universal
health and education
availability, and no
armed forces.

juice. Researching where to
stay and what beaches to
visit, you strip your
travels of any spontaneity
and uncertainty.
