Cuba and Revolutionary Latin America
Dirk Kruijt gives us two books in one.The first one tells the life stories of 30 men and women (mostly men) who either fought in the guerrilla movement in the Sierra Madre or participated in the urban underground in the struggle against the Batista dictatorship.After 1959, they all joined Fidel Castro's government where most of them occupied middle to high positions for 30-40 years.When Kruijt interviewed them in 2011, they were in their seventie…
Hearing Voices
Sound recordings capture part of the excitement of oral history. By listening to the narrators' and the interviewers' voices, we hear their passions and their fears. And their deceits. We hear the mystery of their silences. Oral history interviews almost always contain passages that fit uneasily with a narrator's story. Recordings allow us to overhear how those in the room confront or ignore the frictions. Reading the transcript of an interview i…

Before the Revolution
Victoria González- Rivera has written a wonderful book about an unpopular subject: Somocista women. She describes well how unpopular it was with Nicaraguan feminists, with US Latin Americanists, and, of course, with Sandinistas. Before the Revolution tells an important, untold story that many people didn’t want to hear about early Nicara-guan feminists, women leaders in the Somozas’ Nationalist Liberal Party (PLN), and the Somozas’ female grassro…

In The National Interest
Three decades ago, Latin America was nationalizing, not privatizing. Leaders opposed foreign intervention and invoked allegiance to la patria to back up the nationalizations
Debt Peonage in Granada, Nicaragua, 1870-1930
The rise of coffee cultivation was a watershed in Nicaraguan history. Prior to the 1880s, most land was common property; thereafter, land in coffee districts was privately owned. Before coffee, peasants labored largely in household and communal production; afterward, many rural Nicaraguans worked on coffee estates for several months out of the year.1 In the past, historians viewed this revolution in land and labor as Nicaragua’s capitalist transi…
Hidden Histories of Gender and the State in Latin America
Environment and Society
Drawing on historical and environmental research, this essay examines long-term trends in the ways that mining affected labour and the environment in Latin America. The article begins with a theoretical framework for analysing the changing conditions of labour and of the environment under capitalism. This is followed by a periodisation of Latin American mining, divided into six parts: pre-conquest, conquest, colony, neo-colony, capitalist moderni…

Property, Households and Public Regulation of Domestic Life
This article examines changes in gender relations in an Indian pueblo in south-western Nicaragua between Independence and the coffee revolution, when the nation-state was weak and municipal governments exercised considerable power. It analyses landed property, household headship and public control over so-called private morality, and considers how these were influenced by the coffee economy. First, it argues that public regulation of domestic lif…
Land Privatization and the Differentiation of the Peasantry
The expansion of coffee cultivation in Nicaragua in the 1870s unleashed a social revolution. Previously most land was common property: by 1920 throughout the coffee districts land was privately owned. Influential historians of Nicaragua see this as the capitalist transition. This essay argues that instead of forging a rural proletariat, this social revolution created a differentiated peasantry whose access to land depended on relations of patrona…

What Went Wrong? The Sandinista Revolution
Postmodernist Fashion or Marxist Debate in Peasant Studies
The academic literature on the peasantry in Latin America is so voluminous as to create the impression of little scope for originality, but that impression is false. First, understanding the complexities of agrarian transformation in specific countries and in Latin America more generally requires the integration of theoretical analysis with historical examination of specific rural regions. Although many excellent rural histories have been publish…

The Peruvian Mining Industry
This book examines patterns of growth, stagnation, and crisis in the Peruvian mining industry in twentieth century, presenting an assessment of the nature of some internal constraints which prevents mining companies in Peru from responding to price incentives and increased demand for their products
Reply to Samir Amin
This reply to Samir Amin is a response to Amin's critique of the Weeks and Dore article, "International Exchange and the Causes of Backwardness. Both the article and the critique appeared in Latin American Perspectives, Volume VI, Number 2 (Spring 1979
International Exchange and the Causes of Backwardness
The unequal development of the productive forces was shown by Marx to be a fundamental law of capitalist accumulation; and, in general, it is this law which produces uneven development on a world scale and inequality among countries. While all Marxists agree that the explanation of inequality in levels of development between countries lies in the laws of uneven development,' there is less agreement upon the mechanism by which this uneven developm…
