Snow Leopard was the best version for me. I used it for months only restarting to install updates and there was no impact on the performance or stability.

I would start with "The causes of corruption" by Daniel Treisman. It isn't specific to Latin America, though.

In summary, Treisman will show that many factors appear to have an influence on whether a country is more or less corrupt. The colonial past of Latin American countries helps to explain part of it, but it doesn't appear to be a causa sine qua non.

> countries where corruption is endemic and part of the culture almost always started out as "extraction colonies".
