    Why do the U.S. and Canada prosper while much of Latin America struggles, despite sharing geography, history, and even culture? In this episode, Armando Perez-Carreño is joined by award-winning composer and musical director Claudio Tarris, who steps outside the world of orchestras and jazz to discuss his thought-provoking book La Legalidad y Las Dos Américas.
