Con su habitual lucidez, Oppenheimer analiza la realidad actual y de los proximos anos en America Latina, a la luz del ejemplo de los llamados paises emergentes de los ultimos anos: China, Irlanda, Polonia, Republica Checa, entre otros. El autor busca descubrir quien presenta un panorama realista de los proximos veinte anos y quien esta contando cuentos chinos . Por un lado, los informes de la CNI (centro de estudios de la CIA a largo plazo) y de un aleman del Parlamento Europeo experto en A. Latina (Linkohr) que pintan un panorama desolador para la region; por el otro, los discursos optimistas de los gobernantes de estos paises (Chavez, Fox, Kirchner) y de instituciones como la CEPAL. Para ello, recorre los paises emergentes durante tres anos y entrevista a los actores mas relevantes del futuro latinoamericano (desde Rumsfeld y Roger Noriega hasta Evo Morales pasando por Fernando Henrique Cardoso y los presidentes de Mexico, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela y Chile, ademas de gente comun, como ascensoristas chinos o taxistas polacos). Sus conclusiones son reveladoras, ya que si bien los informes antes mencionados resultan acertados como diagnosticos del presente, el autor se muestra asombrado por la rapidez con que ciertos paises de caracteristicas previas muy similares a las nuestras pudieron pasar de la pobreza y la desesperanza a la riqueza y el dinamismo. Es, definitivamente, un libro para desactivar prejuicios."
