Las investigaciones reunidas en este libro reconstruyen las historias de los principales archivos documentales oficiales de la Norpatagonia, pero también de los nuevos archivos surgidos en el ámbito de comunidades, organizaciones y colectivos sociales subalternizados en las lógicas y burocracias que signaron la conformación de los primeros. De este modo, la contribución principal de la obra es la pesquisa sobre una institución poco problematizada pero central para garantizar la memoria, para la producción de investigaciones y también –y fundamentalmente– para el ejercicio de derechos ciudadanos. The investigations gathered in this book reconstruct the histories of the main official documentary archives of North Patagonia, but also of the new archives that have arisen in the sphere of communities, organizations and social groups subordinated in the logic and bureaucracies that marked the formation of those first institutions. The main contribution of the work is the analysis of a central organization to guarantee memory, for the production of research and also –and fundamentally– for the exercise of citizen rights.

This is the first broad cross-country assessment of the ties between financial structure--the mix of financial instruments, institutions, and markets in a given economy--and economic growth since Raymond Goldsmith's 1969 landmark study. Most studies focus on developed countries and compare bank-based and market-based systems. Debates over the relative merits of the two systems have relied on case studies of Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, countries with similar long-run growth rates. The absence of data on developing countries limits the usefulness of such studies for policy makers.The book contains recently acquired cross-country data from almost 150 countries. It includes information on the size, efficiency, and activity of banks, insurance companies, pension and mutual funds, finance companies, and stock and bond markets. It also incorporates information on each country's political, economic, and social environment. The chapters contain a mix of case studies, cross-country studies, macro- and micro-oriented approaches, and analytical and empirical work. The conclusions point not to markets versus banks, but to markets and banks. It is how well a financial system functions that is critical for long-run economic growth. The research suggests that strong legal rights for outside investors and the overall efficiency of contract enforcement are effective tools for developing the financial sector and the economy. The book includes a CD containing World Bank data.

Esta obra aborda los procesos de cambio institucional en España e Hispanoamérica durante los años que fueron desde la guerra de los Siete Años hasta la formación de los estados nacionales. Para mantener el hilo de esta historia global, dichos procesos se analizan a través del prisma de la historia de las finanzas, examinando los problemas fiscales en su interdependencia con transformaciones económicas, sociales y culturales más amplias. Resultado de dos proyectos del programa ECOS que reunieron a especialistas argentinos, franceses y mexicanos, así como a colegas de Alemania, España e Italia invitados a distintos encuentros, el libro ha intentado situarse en diferentes escalas de observación: la de la Monarquía, que negocia y reforma los mecanismos de acceso y de circulación de recursos, transformando así sus propios equilibrios políticos; o, en el otro extremo, la de las arenas locales, donde la cooperación y el conflicto de sus actores producían reconfiguraciones institucionales y territoriales; o aun el ámbito de los dispositivos que atravesaban las diferentes escalas —los derechos de propiedad, los cuerpos y las articulaciones comunitarias, o las dimensiones fiscales de la ciudadanía— cuyas evoluciones acompasaban el tránsito del Antiguo Régimen al orden republicano. Dans ce livre l’histoire de la fiscalité est replacée dans le contexte des évolutions économiques, sociales et culturelles. Elle sert ainsi de fil conducteur à l’analyse des transformations institutionnelles et politiques qui ponctuent la complexe transition de l’empire hispanique aux nouvelles nations qui en sont issues, en Amérique latine et en Espagne. Cette analyse suit une démarche multiscalaire en s’attachant d’abord aux tentatives de réforme de la monarchie et l’émergence des libéralismes, puis aux acteurs locaux et aux conflits dans lesquels ils s’impliquent et enfin au rôle des corps et communautés, de la propriété, du financement de la guerre posant la question de la citoyenneté fiscale.
