Abstract: Abstract The nature of postwar development in Central America is described by the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America as superimposed, externally determined and exclusionary (ECLAC, 1986: 13-22). This pattern of development followed the country’s successful agricultural recovery and growth after the international economic crisis of the 1930s, which was associated with regressive tendencies in the distribution of, and access to, income and land (Williams, 1986; Brockett, 1988; Torres-Rivas, 1991).
