This study is a comparative analysis of class relations in three sub-national regions in Colombia (the coffee-producing area of Viejo Caldas, the banana-producing area of Uraba, and the coca-farming and cattle-ranching area of Caqueta). The dissertation uses comparative-historical methods including archival data collected from governmental and non-governmental sources, secondary sources, and primary sources (interviews with key informants) to address two key questions. First, why do we find starkly different elite-subaltern relations in these regions at the same period in history (that is, in the post-war developmental era)? The coffee region was characterized by a consensual form of rule, the banana region was characterized by a coercive form of rule, and the cattle/coca region was characterized by a situation in which local cattle elites had lost their control over the region to guerrillas who established a war economy based upon coca production. The second question is why these relatively stable forms of class relations in each region collapsed in the 1980s and 1990s.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study is a comparative analysis of class relations in three sub-national regions in Colombia (the coffee-producing area of Viejo Caldas, the banana-producing area of Uraba, and the coca-farming and cattle-ranching area of Caqueta). The dissertation uses comparative-historical methods including archival data collected from governmental and non-governmental sources, secondary sources, and primary sources (interviews with key informants) to address two key questions. First, why do we find starkly different elite-subaltern relations in these regions at the same period in history (that is, in the post-war developmental era)? The coffee region was characterized by a consensual form of rule, the banana region was characterized by a coercive form of rule, and the cattle/coca region was characterized by a situation in which local cattle elites had lost their control over the region to guerrillas who established a war economy based upon coca production. The second question is why these relatively stable forms of class relations in each region collapsed in the 1980s and 1990s.
520 $a Regarding the first question, the study confirms Wallerstein's thesis linking position in the core-periphery hierarchy of wealth to different local forms of class rule. Yet, it also finds that this position is subject to change, depending upon the capacity of local elites to "move up" and/or restructure the global commodity chain through collective action efforts. During the developmental era, Colombia's coffee elites were successful in this endeavor while banana elites were not. Regarding the second question, the study finds that the world-systemic shift from developmentalism to neoliberal globalization is an important part of the explanation for the collapse of consensual class relations in the coffee region. In contrast, in the banana region the democratization of the state played the most decisive role in undermining the foundations of coercive local elite rule. Finally, the shift from guerrilla "counter-hegemony" to a situation characterized by both guerrilla and elite domination of local coca farmers in Caqueta is best explained by national-level economic transformations (the increasing importance of the cattle industry) and global geopolitical processes (the U.S. "war on drugs" and "war on terror").
