Saqueo En El Archivo: El Paradero de Los Tesoros Documentales Guatemaltecos
The authors of this brief report have all distinguished themselves by their scholarship on Guatemala, most recently with their collaboration on “Strange Lands and Different Peoples”: Spaniards and Indians in Colonial Guatemala (2013). It is from their research for that brilliant volume that the present work emerged, which focuses on the whereabouts of many of Guatemala's historic manuscripts and archaeological treasures. They observe that much of…

Merchant Guilds ( Consulados de Comercio ) in the Spanish World
Recent emphasis on the social and cultural history of colonial Latin America has lessened the former growth of economic and institutional history in the region. Yet there is still need for further research on economic elites and their institutions. Merchant guilds were an important element in the economic and judicial development of the Spanish world from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century. Beginning in Catalonia, they later appeared in Cas…

this issue, postulating that redistributive processes can produce unwanted but serious disruptions (p.76).The best thing, then, is to include the current patterns of income distribution as a variable unlikely to change in the foreseeable future and to design growth policies accordingly.Hence, of course, the all-out outward orientation.Here again, the practical difference with neoliberalism is rather thin.The second problem concerns the role of th…

The Transformation of Liberalism in Late Nineteenth-Century Mexico
A leading intellectual historian of Latin America here examines the changing political ideas of the Mexican intellectual and quasi-governmental elite during the period of ideological consensus from the victory of Benito Juárez of 1867 into the 1890s. Looking at Mexican political thought in a comparative Western context, Charles Hale fully describes how triumphant liberalism was transformed by its encounter with the philosophy of positivism. In so…

Economic and Social Origins of the Guatemalan Political Parties (1773-1823)
The Rise and Decline of Liberalism in Central America: Historical Perspectives on the Contemporary Crisis
Recent violence, civil war, revolution, and economic crises have focused attention on Central America. Analyses of these crises vary widely. Class struggle, Soviet or U.S. imperialism, geopolitical balance of power, the energy crisis, and the general malaise of the West all contribute to the turmoil on the isthmus. Yet the bitter political and economic realities of contemporary Central America are deeply rooted in the past. The present conflicts …

Octubre: Communist Appeal to the Urban Labor Force of Guatemala, 1950-1953
The urban labor force in the capital of Guatemala holds a potential strength out of proportion to its numbers. The power of the urban labor force stems from the fact that (1) though a minority of the total population of the republic, it forms a numerical majority in Guatemala City where national decisions are made; (2) it is a compact group which can be more readily and efficiently organized than the sprawling agrarian labor force; and (3) once o…

The Merchants and Economic Development in the Americas, 1750-1850: A Preliminary Study
The century embracing the wars and turmoils that politically separated America from Europe coincides roughly with that great change in the economic life of the western world known as the “Industrial Revolution.” Admitting that this so-called “Revolution” did not occur simultaneously everywhere, or affect all parts in a like manner, it is nonetheless clear that it had a profound effect not only on the material well-being of the American peoples, b…

Ph.D. Dissertations on social Change and Development in Central America (1960–1974): An Addendum to the Snarr-Brown List
The title of D. Neil Snarr and E. Leonard Brown's “An Analysis of Ph.D. Dissertations on Central America: 1960–1974” (LARR 12, no. 2 [1977]) suggests a comprehensive compilation and analysis of dissertation research on Central America between 1960 and 1974. While one might have hoped for coverage of a broader period, particularly since the 1950s produced several significant doctoral dissertations on Central America, such a title promises at least…
