Britain's Involvement in Chile's Cambiaso Mutiny, 1851–2
In mid-1851 a civil war erupted in Chile following a presidential election in which Manuel Montt defeated José María de la Cruz. Many of Cruz's supporters were sent to the distant penal colony of Magallanes. In November 1851, Lieutenant Miguel José Cambiaso, who was part of the garrison, was jailed for insubordination and subsequently led a bloody mutiny disguised as a revolt by Cruz's supporters. The mutiny is familiar to historians of the perio…
Human capital in Chile
This paper studies the evolution of numeracy in Chile for cohorts born from the 1780s to the 1970s, providing a new series of this important indicator of human capital, essential to promote economic growth. This is the longest series currently available of any human capital indicator for Chile. It shows that numeracy was very low until the early twentieth century but that, contrary to traditional interpretations, it increased gradually from the 1…
Adult Female Height and the Gender Gap in Chile, 1860s-1990s
Analysis of a sample of around 4,600 women born between the 1860s and the 1990s finds that the height of adult females increased by about 5 cm, primarily from the 1860s to the 1880s and during the second half of the twentieth century-representing the greatest known improvement in women's biological welfare in Chilean history. Chilean women have never been as tall as they are today. The secular height increase was higher for men than for women, bu…

El rol de Chile en la primera globalización del cobre, 1700-1840
Este artículo estudia la posición de Chile dentro de las redes mundiales de cobre entre 1700 y la década de 1840. Durante este periodo, los niveles de producción eran bajos, si se los compara con los de 1850-1870 y el siglo XX, debido tanto a las pobres técnicas de extracción y refinado como a los altos costos de transporte. Sin embargo, el cobre chileno fue consumido dentro de Chile, en mercados cercanos como Perú, Bolivia y Argentina, y tambié…
Milk and meat consumption and production in Chile, c. 1930-2017
This article shows how Chile experienced a profound nutrition transition within a short period of time. Before the early 1990s, the diet of most Chileans was poor in animal proteins and calcium. Today, Chileans enjoy a diet characterized by high consumption of meat and dairy products. The rapid rise in consumption of these products can be attributed to various factors: Chile belatedly joining the international agribusiness revolution; government …
The Demographic Consequences of the End of Chile's Nitrate Boom, c .1907–1940
This article deals with the demographic consequences of the end of Chile's nitrate boom following the 1929 crisis. The traditional economic historiography has maintained that this crisis impacted heavily on nitrate production, and that in turn the crisis triggered a permanent exodus from the nitrate districts to other geographical zones. Contrary to this widely held belief, we have shown in this article that: there was no substantial fall in prod…
Women Agrarian Entrepreneurs And Gender Inequality In The Chilean Rural Sector After Independence From Spain, 1830s-1860s1
We provide the first estimates of gender income and land inequality in Chile during the first decades after independence, when Chile was a predominantly agrarian society. We have used a new source: the records of the first agricultural censuses ever made for any Latin American republic. We found that there were over six times more male landowners than women, and that male owners gathered up to 87% of total agricultural income (of those paying the…
New anthropometric evidence on living standards in nineteenth-century Chile
The Physical Stature of Men in 19 Th -Century Chile
This article provides the first series of adult male height for 19 th -century Chile. Our aim was not only to assess the trends indicated by height during this period, but also the relationship between stature and both GDP per capita and exports. Having analysed our data, our primary conclusion is that there was a reduction in height for cohorts born in the 1850s and 1860s with respect to cohorts born between 1820 and 1840. Height stagnated there…
Antropometría histórica de Chile
The average height of a population has been recently taken as a good indicator of biological welfare, andtherefore of standards of living and economic development. This article provides the first available seriesfor Chile, providing the evolution of the average height of Chilean soldiers (male) born from the 1730sto the 1980s, using a sample of 6.200 individuals. This sample can be safely taken as a good proxy ofthe average height of Chilean male…

Chiloé, una sociedad rural igualitaria. Distribución del ingreso agrícola y de la tierra después de la independencia
Este artculo analiza la distribucin del ingreso agrcola y de la tierra en Chilo entre c.1830 y los aos 1850, comparando ambas variables con el resto de las provincias chilenas, en un periodo insuficientemente tratado en la literatura especializada. Para ello hemos empleado informacin procedente de fuentes escasamente utilizadas en la historiografa agraria, especialmente el Catastro Agrcola. A partir del mismo, hemos construido y procesado una bas…
Inequality in Chile before the first globalization
This article assesses agricultural market income inequality by examining three untapped comprehensive agricultural censuses of all of Chile, undertaken in 1834, 1838 and 1852. Since there had been no Chilean income inequality measurements prior to 1860, this is a novel contribution. Given Chile’s great dependence on the agricultural sector during the pre-industrial period of the 1830s to 1850s, measures of agricultural market income inequality ca…
The Chilean Economy during the 1810-1830s and its Entry into the World Economy
This article discusses Chile's entry into the international economy, the performance of the national economy and institutional change during the 1810-1830s. It argues that the country consolidated a successful process of entry into the expanding world economy. GDP per capita was poor, but alternative indicators suggest a more optimistic picture (e.g., agricultural, copper and silver production increased, population grew and terms of trade improve…
