With unprecedented use of local and national sources,
Lauria-Santiago presents a more complex portrait of El Salvador
than has ever been ventured before. Using thoroughly researched
regional case studies, Lauria-Santiago uncovers an astonishing
variety of patterns in land use, labor, and the organization of
production. He finds a diverse, commercially active peasantry that
was deeply involved with local and national networks of power. An
Agrarian Republic challenges the accepted vision of Central America
in the nineteenth century and critiques the "liberal oligarchic
hegemony" model of El Salvador. Detailed discussions of Ladino
victories and successful Indian resistance give a perspective on
Ladinization that does not rely on a polarized understanding of
ethnic identity.
