The troubled history of democracy in Latin America has been the subject of much scholarly commentary. This volume breaks new ground by systematically exploring the linkages among the historical legacies of large landholding patterns, agrarian class relations, and authoritarian versus democratic trajectories in Latin American countries. The essays address questions about the importance of large landownders for the national economy, the labor needs and labor relations of these landowners, attempts of landowners to enlist the support of the state to control labor, and the democratic forms of rule in the twentieth century.

Agrarian reforms transformed the Mexican countryside in the late twentieth century but without, in many cases, altering fundamental power relationships. This study of the Tehuacán Valley in the state of Puebla highlights different strategies to manipulate the local implementation of federal government programs. With their very differing successes in the struggle to regain and maintain control of land and water rights, these strategies raise important questions about the meaning of the phrase "locally controlled development." Because Mexico is dependent on irrigation for 45 percent of its cash crop production, national policy has focused on developing vast government controlled and financed irrigation systems. In the Tehuacán Valley, however, the inhabitants have developed a complex irrigation system without government aid or supervision. Yet, in contrast to most parts of Mexico, water rights can be bought and sold as a commodity, leading to accumulation, stratification, and emergence of a regional elite whose power is based on ownership of land and water. The analysis provides an important contribution to the understanding of local control. The findings of this study will be important to a wide audience involved in the study of irrigation, local agricultural systems, and the interplay between local power structures and the national government in developing countries. The book also presents unique material on gravity-fed, horizontal wells, known as qanat in the Middle East, which had been unknown in the literature on Latin America before this book.

Focusing on three Mexican agricultural regions from the 1930s to the present, Gerardo Otero's Farewell to the Peasantry? Political Class Formation in Rural Mexico offers a strikingly new analysis of the intersection of class relations, political mobilization, and regionally varying cultural heritage in rural Mexico. With the prevailing agrarian social structure as his backdrop, Otero examines the social and political circumstances under which different regions have evolved, and the transformations in class structure that have resulted. Otero maintains that political class formation is the fundamental process by which civil society is constructed, and a vital part in the transition toward a societal democracy. Otero also addresses Mexico's legendary agrarian reform program, arguing that land redistribution was enacted by the leaders of Mexico specifically because of its power to entrench capitalism in the modern Mexican state. Avoiding unidirectional or single-factor approaches in favor of presenting a broader spectrum, Farewell to the Peasantry? Political Class Formation in Rural Mexico will interest serious academics and casual readers alike.
