Abstract

Los procesos de cambio en America Latina exhiben una gran heterogeneidad social y economica; en el ambito rural, aunque el binomio latifundio-minifundio parece ser el elemento definitorio, la situacion es bastante mas compleja. Los paises objeto de estudio - Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico y Peru- constituyen una muestra adecuada del modelo de subdesarrollo dependiente de la region. Representan naciones donde cerca de la mitad de la poblacion activa se encuentra incorporada al sector primario de la economia y no menos de dos tercios de sus habitantes residen en areas no-urbanas (p27). La tasa de crecimiento de Costa Rica era una de las mas elevadas del mundo, superando con creces el promedio regional. Mexico y Colombia exhibian tasas moderadamente altas y Peru se situaba cerca del promedio de America Latina. Estos paises se ubican en los dos grupos modales en terminos de volumen poblacional y de la superficie que concentran y corresponden a una ejemplificacion adecuada del perfil global de la region.
