La maldición de Midas en una región del mundo colonial

the long version

"Provocative explication of the regional economy of 18th-century Popayán assigns structural and moral meaning to the development of mining and agriculture in the province. Solid analyses of economic indicators such as rural real estate transactions, coca prices, and gold production lend validity to the conclusion that Enlightenment-era expansion of Atlantic capitalism in the province fostered economic contradiction and ambiguity there, including the desmonetización of the countryside"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
