.... The chapter thus focuses on issues of “short-term” macroeconomic management rather than on the “developmental” issues which pervade the case studies of Argentina, Chile, and Peru. Nonetheless, this approach helps us understand some of the linkages between export development and industrialization, which had...

... not lead to any forward linkages with the Mexican market. Venezuelans did not send either paste or chocolate. The nature of cacao allowed Venezuelans to move into the Veracruz trade quickly.

... link ages with the domestic economy and foreign markets. These linkages are known to those familiar with the Staple Thesis Model as forward, backward, fiscal, and final demand (or income-multiplier) linkages. 2 The present study addresses specifically the ties of colonial Caracas’s cacao economy...

... in the Mineiro economy, we need to be able to trace the linkages between this sector and production for the internal market. The Martins, for example, show that in 1873 a large number of free people, although relatively few slaves, were employed directly in the Mineiro textile industry. I have some questions...

... politics in the post-independence era. Relying upon the doctrine of linkage politics, he has stressed traditional economic dependency arguments and has accurately captured many of the reasons for such trends, but in a work this brief, he cannot explore the complexities inherent in such historical patterns...

... war, anticommunism, and United States pressures generated the security-development linkage through institutional golpes (see particularly pp. 87-89 for an egregious lapsus logica ), but little appears on Brazil’s New State or the Perón era, clear examples of that linkage predating the selectively...

The editors should be commended for having produced the best documented and most carefully argued review in recent times of the troublesome and complex linkages binding U.S. and Mexican agriculture.

... Hylton’s chapter emphasizes the linkages between largely urban radicals and the leaders of the 1927 Chayanta Rebellion.

... quietly, this book also subtly demonstrates the profundity of the Swiss–Latin American linkage.
