Abstract For more than a century, the countries of Spanish America have maintained their level of development relative to one another. This article argues that this enduring regional hierarchy is a path‐dependent legacy of Spanish colonialism. Those territories that constituted the centers of the Spanish colonial empire tended to become the region’s least developed countries; by contrast, those territories that were peripheral to the Spanish empire tended to become the most developed countries. Using methods for assessing both correlational causation and necessary/sufficient causation, the article explores competing hypotheses to explain this inverse relationship. It finds that the density of the indigenous population and the strength of liberal elites during the period from 1700 to 1850 were critical factors linking colonial and postcolonial development.

Abstract In this article we discuss: the intellectual history of modernity; the union and interpenetration of modernity and development in Latin America and the Caribbean; how the ECLA version of development has come to be a synonym for modernity and has been disseminated and incorporated in the practices of social forces; the dilemmas generated by the attempts to achieve it; and the challenges which remain to be addressed in the future, in terms of possible development strategies, as consequences of truncated or frustrated modernizations. Journal Information Review was founded in 1976 by Immanuel Wallerstein as the official journal of the Fernand Braudel Center for the Study of Economies, Historical Systems, and Civilizations. Richard E. Lee took over as editor in 2006 Review is committed to the pursuit of a perspective which recognizes the primacy of analyses of economies over long historical time and large space, the holism of the socio-historical process, and the transitory (heuristic) nature of theories. The journal addresses mainly a readership in the social sciences and the humanities, and this is an international readership extending to six continents. Review also edits special issues. These may be put together by a guest editor around a specific theme or publish the results of a research project. In general, articles are in English, but Review does sometimes publish articles in other scholarly languages.
