• This paper was completed while the author was in residence at the Helen Kellogg Institute of International Studies at University of Notre Dame, Indiana. Initial research on the paper was also supported by a Mellon Foundation Summer Research Grant from the Institute of Latin American Studies at the University of Texas. Completion of the paper would not have been possible without the research support of the Central America Resource Centre, and especially the bibliographical assistance of Philip Russell. I have also received helpful comments from David Ruccio, Joseph Ricciardi, George Black, Jose Luis Coraggio, and Mary Young. The ideas presented in the paper, however, are those of the author alone and do not represent the positions of any of the supporting institutions or the commentators.
