This study views the economic transformation of Duaca, Venezuela
into a major coffee export center in the late nineteenth century.
Yarrington examines the rise of the peasantry to prosperity, yet
they later lost their stature as the local elite allied itself with
the state to restructure society and coffee production on its own
terms in the twentieth-century. The book is a pioneering study on
peasant studies, export-led development, the relationship of state
and society, and the consolidation of nation-states in Latin
America.
