The Shark And The Sardines is a book written by Juan Jose Arevalo. It is a political and social commentary on the state of Guatemala during the mid-20th century. The book is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Guatemalan society. The first part examines the history of Guatemala, from the time of the Spanish conquest to the present day. The second part explores the political and economic systems in place in Guatemala, including the role of the military and the influence of foreign powers. The third and final part of the book deals with the struggle for social justice in Guatemala, including the efforts of labor unions and other groups to improve the lives of the country's poor and marginalized. Throughout the book, Arevalo draws on his own experiences as a political leader and activist in Guatemala, as well as his knowledge of the country's history and culture. The Shark And The Sardines is a powerful and insightful look at the challenges facing Guatemala and other developing countries in the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
