Proceso y frustración de las reformas agrarias en América Latina
The Latin American experience of Agrarian Reform raises the need and the possibility of an immediate transformation of that historical experience into Social Theory. Despite the rich experience of Latin America in half a century of history, the main lines of this social theory have not yet been defined and it continues to operate with "western paradigms" of Agrarian Reform, based on technocratic notions of change or the ideologies of industrial, capitalist or socialist nations. The essential question, then, lies in defining not only the means, the driving forces behind the changes, but also the strategic objectives of those changes. This is the fundamental hypothesis in any attempt to design a social theory of agrarian reforms in Latin America: that the depth of any kind of reform must be measured in terms of the capacity to radically modify the various types of large states structure by altering the power relations characteristic of the "traditional society" in Latin America.
