Comercio de lanas, estructura agraria y oligaría en el sur del Perú
El desarrollo económico en el sur del Perú hacia fines del siglo XIX y comienzos del siglo XX, un periodo en que la exportación de la lana fue de importancia determinante, representa un problema especial para la historia peruana: ¿Por qué? -en las haciendas ganaderas y las comunidades indígenas- se mantuvieron tan tradicionales y arcaicas las estructuras de la producción agraria, sin que se produjeran inversiones de capitales, se intensificara lo…
Ciclos y booms en la agricultura de exportación latinoamericana: El caso de la economía ganadera en el sur peruano, 1855-1920
Los historiadores dedicados al estudio de la América Latina de los siglos XIX y XX coinciden en señalar que el incremento en la demanda de bienes primarios en los países europeos y norteamericanos en vías de industrialización, dio lugar a cambios de gran alcance en la estructura productiva, social y política de los países latinoamericanos
Dennis Gilbert. The Oligarchy and the Old Regime in Latin America, 1880–1970
In The Oligarchy and the Old Regime in Latin America, 1880–1970, sociologist Dennis Gilbert has given us an accomplished study of a type rarely seen in the past three decades: a comparative political sociology of a subgroup of the upper class commonly referred to as the oligarchy in five Latin American nations, and of the rise and fall of the political regimes that they dominated. This study originated in the author’s earlier work about the Peruv…
Staatsferne Gewalt: Eine Geschichte Lateinamerikas (1500-1930)
This sweeping study of the history of violence in Latin America by historian Michael Riekenberg is both fascinating and frustrating. It is fascinating for its many insightful empirical observations and conceptual understandings gained from an extraordinarily broad utilization of social science and cultural studies theories. But over stretches it becomes frustrating precisely because of at times far-fetched, circuitous, abstract theoretical discus…
Reiner Tom Zuidema (1927-2016)
On March 2, 2016, the cultural anthropologist and ethnohistorian of the Andes Reiner Tom Zuidema passed away in his home in Urbana, Illinois, at the age of 88. Descended on his father's side from a family of Frisian Mennonite farmers, Zuidema was raised in the Dutch city of Haarlem, where, toward the end of World War II, he spent many months in hiding from German Nazi occupation military recruiters. A talented violinist, Zuidema played in the Dut…
Usos políticos de la historia: Lenguaje de clases y revisionismo histórico
This volume contains seven major research articles and six shorter pieces for a broader public, most of which have been published before. But they conveniently bring together a focused scholarly production by José Carlos Chiaramonte over the past 15 years on the history of concepts, political language, and ideas, as well as central historiographical debates. The volume is a joy to read due to the author's remarkable erudition, depth of understand…
Liberalismo tropical’: Cómo explicar el auge de una doctrina económica europea en América Latina, 1780-1885
The article traces the processes through which the northwest European doctrine of economic liberalism achieved dominance in nineteenth century Latin America. It focuses on transmission channels, domestic and foreign interest groups, institutions, civil society, economic structures and conjunctures, and political cultures to account for the spread on economic liberalism in various countries of the region between the 1770s and 1890. The doctrine wa…
Trials of Nation Making: Liberalism, Race, and Ethnicity in the Andes, 1810-1910
In this masterful, comparative synthesis of the roles played by popular groups (especially native Andeans) in the formation of the nation-state in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia during the nineteenth century, a leading scholar offers reflections and interpretations, emerging from decades of research on Andean history. The book, written in crisp and often elegant language, grew out of Larsons’s essay on the nineteenth century written for the…

Subverting Colonial Authority: Challenges to Spanish Rule in Eighteenth Century Southern Andes
Los rostros de la plebe
This brief selection of works by Peruvian historian and essayist Alberto Flores Galindo (1949–90) is designed to make his incisive, engaged, and elegant writing accessible to the broader Spanish-speaking world. After the ongoing publication of his complete works in Peru and the impending publication of his masterpiece (Buscando un Inca) in English, the volume confirms Flores Galindo’s stature as one of the most important progressive intellectuals…
Comunes y haciendas: Procesos de comunalización en la Sierra de Piura (siglos XVIII al XX)El Norte en la historia regional, siglos XVIII-XIX
These two books impressively demonstrate the growth in research on and understanding of the history of northern Peru and southern Ecuador during the past two decades. Until recently, the region had appeared in the broader tapestry of the viceregal and national history primarily as the site of coastal sugar plantations and slave populations, and the postemancipation economic and political structures arising from that complex. Now we are beginning …

Campesinos y tenencia de la tierra en el altiplano peruano en la transición de la Colonia a la República
La principal paradoja del régimen de tenencia de la tierra en el nombre del Altiplano durante la última parte del período colonial fue la siguiente: la tierra era barata. Todavía no se había convertido en un "bien mercancía", ya que en principio era comercializada como una parte secundaria del capital de ganado al cual alimentaba. En la mayoría de las transacciones el valor del ganado y el de sus pastos era uno solo. Sin el ganado lo pastos valía…
