The Militarization of the State in Latin America
Military dictatorships have been a characteristic feature of Latin America's political history since the time of the military caudillos (Bolivar, San Martin, O' Higgins, and others) who led the processes of national emancipation at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Since that epoch, military dictators have been one of the resources utilized by the dominant classes to impose order during times of crisis. After independence, military regimes…

Post-Revolutionary Peru
Indigenismo, Populism, and Marxism
When one attempts to understand the agrarian question in Latin America, it is almost certain that one is immediately confronted with what is termed the problem and, furthermore, as a specific phenomenon for certain countries of the continent, the problem. Naturally these problems could be approached-and in fact have been approached-from diverse points of view. Although frequently these viewpoints appear to correspond to differing intellectual inc…
Power and Consolidation in the Nicaraguan Revolution
At the end of its first year, the revolutionary process in Nicaragua must be considered a success from several different perspectives. The war-torn economy has been stabilized, a progressive agrarian reform program initiated, a large state sector formed on the basis of expropriatedSomocistaproperty, an independent foreign policy adopted, and a massive literacy campaign launched throughout the country. Most important, however, has been the imposit…

The State, Elite, and Export in Nineteenth Century Peru
In a recent reinterpretation of political change in Peru between independence and World War I, Berg and Weaver (1978) suggest that the rise of guano export beginning in the 1840s led to important changes in socioeconomic relations within the country. In consequence, a centralized and powerful state emerged which asserted its authority over the formerly dominant provincial elites. On this point, Berg and Weaver's analysis is not inconsistent with …
Students and Class Struggle in Brazil
By 1977 the struggle of the students against the military regime came to dominate the political scene in Brazil. Responding to the imprisonment of a group of students and workers who distributed a pamphlet on May 1, Sao Paulo students mobilized and took to the streets. Despite police intervention, more than 10,000 protested in the center of the city, demanding liberation of the May Day prisoners, amnesty for all political prisoners, and the reest…
The High Stakes of Geopolitics in Terra Del Fuego
National-Popular State, State Capitalism and Military Dictatorship in Bolivia
Peru before the Election for the Constituent Assembly
ELECTIONS FOR A CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY ARE SCHEDULED TO TAKE place in Peru in 1978. In view of this event and of the changes which it might bring about, it would be useful to examine the tenyear record of the military revolutionary government in that country.If the road to hell truly is paved with good intentions, it is of little solace to those who must walk it. So it is that after nearly a decade of revolution in Peru we can no longer concern our…
Changes in Rural Class Structure Under the Peruvian Agrarian Reform
The significance of Peru's agrarian reform continues to be sharply debated. There are still a few scholars and political groups who insist that the program, launched in 1969 and largely completed in 1976, has in no way altered what they regard as the underlying semifeudal character of Peruvian society. The essay below is in part a response to those who dogmatically cling to this view. On the other hand, sympathizers of the military regime tend to…
