Agrarian Reform and Anti-Reform in El Salvador

Chapter 11 in Economic Maladjustment in Central America, 1993, pp 164-184 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The international literature still differs in its judgement on the impact of the land reform in El Salvador. The number of beneficiaries — nearly half a million, or slightly more than one-fifth of the rural population — prompted the description ‘massive and drastic’ from one author, and ‘stagnated’, ‘quite negligible’ from another, depending in part on each analyst’s view of the political conduct of the Salvadorean and the United States governments (Strasma, 1989: p. 426 and Diskin, 1989: pp. 442–3).
