Latin American exports during the first globalization
Data constraints determine the scope of historical research. The gradual digitalization of large sources has increased the number of approaches that can be applied to comprehend the past. Here, we show an example of how trade data can shed new light to better understand growth patterns of Latin America at the end of nineteenth century. Latin American exports during the First Globalization has mainly focused on the high concentration of few produc…
Official Bolivian Trade Statistics (1910-1949)
This paper aims to evaluate the accuracy of official Bolivian foreign trade statistics. Results show large discrepancies between Bolivian records and those of its main trade partners during the First World War. Whereas the gap decreased thereafter, it stayed particularly high in the case of exports. This seems to be explained by mistakes in the geographical assignment by the trade partners rather than by an overvaluation of official Bolivian figu…
Geography, policy, or productivity? Regional trade in five South American countries, 1910-50
Regional trade in South America since independence has long been much smaller than would be expected if geography were the only constraint on trade. Several potential explanations exist, including low technological and demand complementarities; low productivity; and high natural and policy barriers to trade. Focusing on the latter explanations, policy makers have long advocated a South American/Southern Cone Free Trade Area-proposed as early as 1…
La fiabilidad en la distribución geográfica de las exportaciones argentinas, 1875-1913
El desempeño de la exportación en América Latina durante la primera globalización ha sido un tema muy estudiado en la historiografía. Sin embargo, la calidad de las fuentes de información para su análisis no ha sido tratada con la misma profundidad. En los últimos años han proliferado debates acerca de la fiabilidad de las estadísticas para conocer el crecimiento, la composición y la distribución geográfica del comercio exterior de la región. En …
Intraregional Trade in South America, 1912–1950
This paper assesses whether the disruption of world trade, protectionist policies and industrial growth that dominated South American economic history from 1912 to 1950 permitted an increase in intraregional trade. The paper demonstrates that during this period intraregional trade reached some of the highest levels of the entire 20th century. These levels have since receded. With the exception of some Brazilian exports, most of intraregional trad…

La fiabilidad de la asignación geográfica en las estadísticas de comercio exterior
The statistical accuracy of Historical Foreign Trade Sources has been stated by Federico and Tena (1991) and Tena (1985, 19991 y 1992). This article follows his works in the most suspect field: geographical distribution. We have use Latin American Coal Trade Data among 1908–1930. Most international trade, considering weight, was coal trade; meanwhile it is an ideal product to isolate geographical effects. Statistical disagreements persistence mak…
Las exportaciones de España a Cuba (1891-1913)
Este artículo analiza la estructura comercial española con Cuba en los años previos e inmediatamente posteriores a la independencia cubana en 1898. Si bien en términos agregados el fin de la colonia supone la desaparición de importantes vínculos comerciales bilaterales, el análisis de algunas categorías de productos pone de relieve el mantenimiento e incluso incremento de la exportación española a Cuba de algunos de estos productos. La hipótesis …
El mercado internacional de tejidos de algodón en 1913 y la industria española
La escasa orientación exportadora de la industria algodonera española ha sido objeto de un amplio debate en la historia económica. Las aportaciones de los distintos autores a este debate se han centrado fundamentalmente en análisis de las características propias de la economía española. Mi propuesta consiste en enfocar el debate desde la perspectiva de las nuevas teorías del comercio internacional. Bajo este enfoque teórico, se plantea la existen…
