Salarios reales y desigualdades laborales en la industria cárnica rioplatense (Uruguay, 1890-1928)
Este estudio aporta nueva evidencia sobre la dinámica salarial industrial en la región del Río de la Plata durante la Primera Globalización (1890-1928). Centrándonos en la industria frigorífica de Uruguay, analizamos registros salariales extraídos de los legajos laborales de la empresa Liebig ́s Extract of Meat Co (convertida en Frigorífico Anglo desde 1924). Las series de salarios nominales y reales construidas revelan dos patrones significativo…
Real Wages Adjusted by Purchasing Power Parity
This paper analyses living standards in the capital cities of southern Latin America during the First Globalisation and the post-export-led period. It examines whether well-being in these cities – relative to London – improved and whether the gap in living standards between these cities narrowed or persisted. To address these questions, we constructed a new series of purchasing power parity (PPP) converters to adjust real wages and analyse their …
"Es breve el espacio en que no estás?" Desigualdades de género en la participación y producción académica en historia económica en Uruguay
Este trabajo brinda evidencia sobre las desigualdades de género en la práctica académica de la historia económica en Uruguay. Se basa en datos sobre carrera laboral, producción y percepciones de los miembros de la Asociación Uruguaya de Historia Económica (AUDHE). Se encontró que, con la profesionalización y expansión de la historia económica, las mujeres han tendido a rezagarse en la participación institucional, la culminación de los estudios su…
Changes in food consumption from an agricultural-based economy to industrialisation
The literature about the nutrition transition has been discussing the existence of different paths. The case of Uruguay is introduced as a different case of transition. We focus on the period 1900–70 when the country shifted from an agricultural-based economy to industrialisation through import substitution. We estimate the annual historical time series of per capita consumption of the main food items in the Uruguayan diet using the commodity flo…
Structural change in a small natural resource intensive economy
The increasing interest in economic diversification, technological sophistication, and production specialization again places structural change at the centre of the economic development theory. However, efforts to measure structural change from a long-run perspective remain scarce. We aim to fill this gap using a synthetic indicator that represents the dynamics of structural change in the long-run and allows us to identify different development p…
Auge Y Ocaso Del Carbón Mineral en Uruguay. Un Análisis Histórico Desde Fines Del Siglo Xix Hasta La Actualidad
The study of the rise and fall of mineral coal as an energy source can shed light on the characteristics of energy transition in Uruguay. This article presents historical series of coal consumption for Uruguay since the last decades of the 19 th century until nowadays (1879-2011). The “coal era” can be placed in the first decades of the 20 th century. The use of this mineral in four sectors may explain the dynamic of the coal consumption as a res…
What is the Goal? Framing the Climate Change Adaptation Question through a Problem-Oriented Approach
A problem-oriented and interdisciplinary approach was employed at Alpine Shire, in northeast Victoria, Australia, to explore its tourism sector’s contextual vulnerability and adaptability to stressors that include but are not limited to climatic change. Using a policy sciences approach, the objective was to identify factors that influence existing vulnerabilities and that might consequently act as barriers to effective adaptation. To do this, a p…
