Abstract

The paper reviews Nicaragua’s vital statistics and the major economic and political events since the end of the Somoza Era. The poorest country in Central America, Nicaragua is projecting a larger role in the global economy because of its plan to construct a canal to rival the Panama Canal, which would have major consequences for Nicaragua and Panama as well as for China and the United States. Using a framework that assesses the performance of a national economy that participates in today’s globalized world, I identify the strengths and weaknesses of Nicaragua towards the end of enhancing the future performance of its economy.
