Evidence from the United Fruit Company in Costa Rica
Multinationals and Development: Evidence from the United Fruit Company in Costa Rica Esteban M´endez-Chac´on∗ Diana Van Patteny Cornell University UCLA Preliminary draft. Please do not cite or distribute. Abstract We analyze the impact of large-scale FDI on economic development by considering an agricultural multinational with well-defined boundaries: the enclave of the United Fruit Company (UFCo) in Costa Rica from 1889 to 1984. We implement a geographic regression discontinuity design that exploits a quasi-random assignment of land, and the availability of restricted microdata georeferenced at the census block level for 1973, 1984, 2000 and 2011. The range covered by the censuses allow us to identify the company's effect during its tenure, and assess its short- and long-run impacts after it stopped production. We find a positive, large and persistent effect on key outcomes in areas where the company operated. Households located in former UFCo lands are less likely of being poor and have a better satisfaction of basic needs (housing, sanitation, education, and consumption capacity). Moreover, we validate our finding using nighttime lights data and conclude that the former UFCo areas are relatively brighter, suggesting a higher level of income and economic activity. We propose that the mechanisms behind our results are investments in physical and human capital carried out by the UFCo, such as sanitary and health programs, housing for its employees, and vocational training. ∗[email protected] [email protected] \It happened once that someone at the table complained about the ruin into which the town had sunk when the banana company had abandoned it, and Aureliano contradicted him with maturity and with the vision of a grown person. -

1 Patterns of Wage Inequality in Costa Rica During the Structural Change
Patterns of Wage Inequality in Costa Rica during the Structural Change, 1976-2004 By Juan Carlos Obando [email protected] The University of Texas Inequality Project Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs The University of Texas at Austin Austin, Texas 78713 UTIP Working Paper No. 36 March 3, 2006 Abstract This paper presents new measures of inequality for Costa Rica for each year from 1976 to 2004, using data on payroll and number of salaried workers by sector and province, provided by the insurance records of the country’s social security offices. Overall, after a long period of decreasing inequality from 1976 to 1985, wage inequality in Costa Rica has been more volatile during the last two decades. The behavior of inequality and real wages during the period 1976-1985 reflects the wage policies of the time before the application of the free market model. Reforms in the financial and health sector seem to be among the important factors influencing wage inequality since that time. Unionization in activities controlled by the state, and electoral cycles are also apparently important. Finally, the successful attraction of high technology firms to Costa Rica has been a key factor accounting for increasing average wages in manufacturing industries in the last decade. 1 Introduction The main goal of this paper is to identify labor market characteristics, patterns of wage inequality, and the forces accounting for those patterns in Costa Rica during the last three decades. This period is particularly interesting because it is characterized by the implementation of what is perhaps the most comprehensive set of economic reforms implemented in this nation in the last century, reforms known as the structural change. -

The Nicoya Region of Costa Rica: a High Longevity Island for Elderly Males
Vienna Yearbook of Population Research 2013 (Vol. 11), pp. 109–136 The Nicoya region of Costa Rica: a high longevity island for elderly males Luis Rosero-Bixby, William H. Dow and David H. Rehkopf∗ Abstract Reliable data show that the Nicoyan region of Costa Rica is a hot spot of high longevity. A survival follow-up of 16,300 elderly Costa Ricans estimated a Nicoya death rate ratio (DRR) for males 1990–2011 of 0.80 (0.69–0.93 CI). For a 60-year- old Nicoyan male, the probability of becoming centenarian is seven times that of a Japanese male, and his life expectancy is 2.2 years greater. This Nicoya advantage does not occur in females, is independent of socio-economic conditions, disappears in out-migrants and comes from lower cardiovascular (CV) mortality (DRR = 0.65). Nicoyans have lower levels of biomarkers of CV risk; they are also leaner, taller and suffer fewer disabilities. Two markers of ageing and stress—telomere length and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate—are also more favourable. The Nicoya diet is prosaic and abundant in traditional foods like rice, beans and animal protein, with low glycemic index and high fibre content. 1 Introduction A book published by the National Geographic Society identified the region of Nicoya in Costa Rica as one of a very small number of locations in the world with exceptional longevity—regions that were referred to as blue zones (Buettner 2010). Other locations noted as having high longevity were the islands of Sardinia in Italy and Okinawa in Japan. Although the selection of Nicoya was mostly based on unpublished evidence, more than a century earlier a Swiss geographer and botanist had observed: “in no other place people are blessed with such long lives” (Pittier 1904). -
