THE INFORMAL ECONOMY IN LATIN AMERICA
Enrique Ghersi Enrique Ghersi is a Peruvian writer and lawyer. He is also a Francisco Marroquín Fellow and the coauthor with Hernando de Soto of The Other Path. He is a former national deputy from Lima, Peru.
P eruvian writer José María Arguedas once wrote that we Latin Americans are people rooted in ancient cultures: we have unique histories and indelible characteristics. I would say that, among those characteristics, one of the most remarkable is that by which our nations convulse themselves in revolution from time to time. Contemporary Peru has experienced two such revolutions. One that failed, which is the one attempted by the Shining Path, the Maoist terrorist group that began its insurrection in 1980; and another one that succeeded, which is the revolution of the informal entrepreneurs who work outside the law in every city in the country. Thus, if we had to conceptually summarize the history of Peru in the last 15 years, I would say that it is the history of those two revolutions: the history of the communist revolution carried out by the Shining Path and the history of the informal revolution carried out by the popular entrepreneurs. The history of a revolution that failed militarily and politically, and the history of a revolution that has surely become one of the most impressive successes of our time.

  • July 7, 1808 (or July 5, 1807). The eighth of thirteen children, Mariano was born to Maria Antonio Lugo and Ignacio Vallejo in Monterey, the provincial capitol of Alta (Upper) California. His father, a leather jacket soldier, escorted Junipero Serra to San Francisco in 1776 and later worked as an engineer on irrigation projects. 1818. When the pirate, Bouchard, sacked Monterey, Mariano fled inland with his mother and siblings. His father and older brother remained behind to defend the capitol. Governor Sola mentored the young Vallejo, providing him with a role model for solid leadership, liberalism, and sophistication. He was tutored in English, French, and Latin by the Englishman, William Hartnell and worked as Hartnell's clerk and bookkeeper. 1822 - 1826. Vallejo served as personal secretary to Governor Arguello; entered military service as a cadet at Monterey; and became a member of the territorial legislature.

Beisbol: Latin Americans and the Grand Old Game
by Michael M. Oleksak and Mary Adams Oleksak Reviewed by David Marasco You can't judge a book by its cover, but a nice cover can certainly catch your eye in the bookstore. That was the case with Beisbol - Latin Americans and the Grand Old Game by Michael M. Oleksak and Mary Adams Oleksak. It has a very attractive jacket design, photos of Jose Canseco and Roberto Clemente on top of a map of the Caribbean. After picking up the book and flipping through it for a while, I plunked down $14.95 and took it home. The authors approach baseball in Latin America from a historical point of view, following the spread of baseball from Cuba to the rest of the nations in the Caribbean, Central and South America. In a bang-bang presentation they tell as how the "National Pastime" became a pastime in many nations. What I found interesting about this section of the book was that a bit of history was covered. In my education provided by the United States, the only times South of the Rio Grande is mentioned are when we invaded Mexico, dug a canal, and lost a battleship in Cuba. Although the treatment wasn't very deep, it still opened windows that had been closed to me. I wish that there had been more, but this is a baseball book, not a history text. After a short bit describing what happened when major league teams barnstormed in Cuba, pre-World War II Latin stars were presented. One of them had light enough skin to pass as white an played in the majors. He was Dolf Luque. A good short biography of Pride of Havana follows. While Luque won almost 200 games in the majors, most of the talent produced never saw the bigs. Most were trapped behind the walls of segregation. Several biographies of notable Caribbean Negro Leaguers are given, along with a short bit on the close relationship between Negro Leagues and the Caribbean Winter Leagues. At one point two players are mentioned as being the only players to play both in the pre-Robinson big leagues and the Negro Leagues. This just isn't true, there were nearly a dozen similar instances. It is my hope that this reflects a lack of knowledge of the Negro Leagues on the part of the authors rather than a similar gap in their study of Latin American baseball.

The Politics of Freeing Markets in Latin America

Chile, Argentina, and Mexico
by Judith A. Teichman
Chapter 1 Politics and Market Reform in Latin America Globalization, Ideas, and Policy Change
While it is widely recognized that the political context within which market reform has been carried out is integral to the process, the nature of the relationship between market reform and political change has been fraught with considerable controversy. The spread of market reform throughout the region demonstrates that elected regimes are capable of carrying out politically risky and socially costly reforms. But the issue of how and why they have been able to do so and what the implications are for democratic stability and practices in the longer term remains an area of ongoing research and discussion. This book aims to contribute to our understanding of the relationship between market reform and politics through examining the issue comparatively, across regime type and over time. In the following section, I sketch the major issues of the current debate and then situate this study within these broader concerns. Latin American Politics in the Market Reform Era Alongside the dramatic reversal of the statism that had come to characterize economic policy in Latin America, the decade of the 1980s also witnessed a concerted move toward political liberalization and democratization as countries shed military rule and moved to establish a variety of formal democratic practices. As we will see, this process has been examined in a variety of ways: democratization has been explored from procedural and substantive perspectives and from the point of view of responsiveness to public input. The market reform/democracy discussion has become extraordinarily intractable, involving not only differing concepts of democracy but also varying assessments of the economic and social impacts of economic reforms along with conflicting viewpoints on the possibilities opened up by such changes.

"Christian Revolution in Latin America:
The Changing Face of Liberation Theology"
Part One in a Three-Part Series
on Liberation Theology
by Ron Rhodes
Theological controversies are often confined to seminary classrooms or theological journals. But the controversy provoked by Latin American liberation theology has been public and it has been worldwide - involving the Vatican, orthodox and not-so-orthodox priests, lay people, sociologists, socialists, capitalists, economists, government leaders and their military, and much more. Liberation theology has certainly not been the passing fad some analysts thought it would be when it first emerged in the late 1960s.
Strictly speaking, liberation theology should be understood as a family of theologies - including the Latin American, Black, and feminist varieties. All three respond to some form of oppression: Latin American liberation theologians say their poverty-stricken people have been oppressed and exploited by rich, capitalist nations. Black liberation theologians argue that their people have suffered oppression at the hands of racist whites. Feminist liberation theologians lay heavy emphasis upon the status and liberation of women in a male-dominated society.
This article, the first of a three-part series on liberation theology, will focus on the Latin American variety - examining its historical roots, growth, doctrine, and present status in the world. Primary emphasis will be on how the movement has changed since its emergence in the late 1960s. In Parts Two and Three respectively, I will examine the Black and feminist varieties.

Rafael Cordero
was a free black man born in San Juan on October 24, 1790. Most free black men were poor and illiterate but he was different. Very little is known about him. He was the son of Lucas Andino and Rita Molina. No one knows why he used the name Cordero but his sister used it also. At that time Puerto Rico was a colony with more free blacks than slaves. His parents, both free blacks, were educated. They could read and they taught their children at a time and place when most of the white population was illiterate. Cordero's story is extremely unusual. He was a cigar maker and had his own shop in a very poor section in San Juan. He began teaching black children how to read and write and spent time tutoring them in the classics. Back then there were only two school for children in the entire island. Soon Cordero was teaching white children as well. He taught without pay for it was not until his later years that the government recognized him and budgeted $15.00 per month for his school. Cordero's alumni adored and revered him remembering to visit him often. Many went on to become civic leaders. His was an integrated school. His students fought for the abolition of slavery. After his death on July 5th 1868 a former student, the print shop owner, prints a Biography in his honor. "Bless his memory!" pleading to the former students of this great man. The Maestro's funeral was a grand event. It was attended by former students that included heads of state, priest, scientists, business men, doctors, lawyers, politicians, young children, grandfathers and grandmothers. More than two thousand people participate in the funeral march. The Maestro was taken to the cemetery on the shoulders of his former pupils. A band of former students who had become musicians played at the funeral. Heading the procession were his school children, carrying sweet smelling lilacs.

http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~gstudies/latin/curriculum/intro.htm
Introduction
Immigration from Latin America and Caribbean
Today, Latin Americans are the largest immigrant group in the United States. During the 1980s eight million immigrants came from Latin America, nearly equal to the total figure of European immigrants who came to the U.S. during the first decade of the 20th century. ( ) According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are an estimated 31 million Latinos in the United States, comprising about 11.2 percent of the total population. Immigration from Latin America has become the most significant immigration spread during the second half of the twentieth century with immigrants coming from all over the continent: "Of the top ten "sender" countries in the last decade, four are Latin American and Caribbean: Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba and Jamaica; in the next ten are Haiti, El Salvador, Colombia and Peru". ( The goal of this website is to provide information about Latin American and Caribbean immigration to teachers and students in the U.S. studying the different immigrant groups. Further it would help them understand better the causes of Mexican immigration which is the largest immigrant group to the U.S. Three major sources document the demographic trends of immigrants to the United States:

A tradition of friendliness and openness developed that visitors from abroad noticed even 200 years ago. This is one of the first things that international visitors recognize in America. It can be confusing to people from other countries, as friendliness cannot be confused with true friendship. In the United States, as anywhere else, true friendships take time to develop, and you will probably have as many close friends here as you did at home. Most Americans have many acquaintances but relatively few close friends. Once an American becomes your friend, it is a strong friendship. However, don't mistake superficial friendliness for real friendship so you will not be disappointed. Americans are informal about making friends. Do not wait for formal introductions.
