| Miêu tả: | The major comparative purpose of this brief analysis, then, will not be to continue with that "praise of peasant-based capitalism. Rather, in Costa Rica, long considered a virtual "limit case" of responsiveness and success by smallholders in coffee production worldwide, we will focus on a virtually "lower limit" case, an area of radically inferior soil fertility, older population and greater inequality of access to land of all kinds or quality. In Desamparados-Tarrazú, south of the capital city of San José, small farmers also survived and eventually made common cause with their wealthier brothers in other coffee-growing areas to build a thriving cooperative movement after the 1948 Revolution that so favored them. However, in comparison with other neighboring districts, the route that would lead them to such triumph meant defeating both a more dominant landowner and beneficiary group and a more impoverished and polarized social structure. |
