Soft cover. Condition: Good. An assiduous student's former Textbook with marginalia, highlighting and underlining throughout. Clean and tight though. "Demonstrating that globalization is a centuries-old phenomenon, From Silver to Cocaine examines the commodity chains that have connected producers in Latin America with consumers around the world for five hundred years. In clear, accessible essays, historians from Latin America, England, and the United States trace the paths of many of Latin America's most important exports: coffee, bananas, rubber, sugar, tobacco, silver, henequen (fiber), fertilizers, cacao, cocaine, indigo, and cochineal (insects used to make dye). Each contributor follows a specific commodity from its inception, through its development and transport, to its final destination in the hands of consumers. The essays are arranged in chronological order, according to when the production of a particular commodity became significant to Latin America's economy. Some?such as silver, sugar, and tobacco?were actively produced and traded in the sixteenth century; others?such as bananas and rubber?only at the end of the nineteenth century; and cocaine only in the twentieth. By focusing on changing patterns of production and consumption over time, the contributors reconstruct complex webs of relationships and economic processes, highlighting Latin America's central and interactive place in the world economy. They show how changes in coffee consumption habits, clothing fashions, drug usage, or tire technologies in Europe, Asia, and the Americas reverberate through Latin American commodity chains in profound ways. The social and economic outcomes of the continent's export experience have been mixed. By analyzing the dynamics of a wide range of commodities over a five-hundred-year period, From Silver to Cocaine highlights this diversity at the same time that it provides a basis for comparison and points to new ways of doing global history.

blanda. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. Por los mismos años en que Sigmund Freud experimentaba frenéticamente en Viena con la recién descubierta y publicitada ?droga maravilla?, la cocaína, un ignoto químico limeño, Alfredo Bignon, ponía en jaque con sus investigaciones al monopolio de la producción mundial de la cocaína, en poder de los laboratorios alemanes. El padre del psicoanálisis apenas podía costear la droga, pero el olvidado peruano redujo su costo en cien veces en menos de diez años. El libro de Paul Gootenberg abarca unos 150 años de historia, desde aquellas primeras investigaciones realizadas en Lima hasta la formación de las redes latinoamericanas de narcotráfico que dominaron la segunda mitad del siglo XX y lo que va del presente. También analiza en detalle el protagonismo de Estados Unidos como errático líder de la ?guerra global? contra una droga cuyos ciudadanos son los principales consumidores del mundo. Una investigación inédita que enlaza la historia con la política (golpes de Estado, revoluciones, injerencias externas, campañas electorales pagadas, corrupción), la economía (finalmente, la cocaína es una de las principales exportaciones de Latinoamérica y mueve tanto o más que el petróleo o cualquier otro commodity) y los protagonistas más atractivos e inesperados (de Fidel a Freud, de Allende a Pablo Escobar, de la Coca Cola a los laboratorios Merck), además de mucha acción para componer un relato apasionante.
