  • The Long Run Developmental Effects of Costa Rica's Army Abolishment
    A farewell to arms: The Long run developmental effects of Costa Rica's army abolishment Alejandro Abarca Sur´ayabi Ram´ırez Observatory of Development, University of Observatory of Development, University of Costa Rica Costa Rica January, 2017 PRELIMINARY VERSION Abstract This article measures the long-term developmental effects of Costa Rica's constitutional abolishment of its army in 1949, using synthetic control estimates. We find that after the abolishment of the army, Costa Rica's per capita GDP started growing at a much faster rate than before the abolishment. Where Costa Rica's per capita GDP grew at an average annual rate of 2.49% in the 1951-2010 period, while the synthetic control grew would have grown at an annual rate of 1.43% during the same period. Furthermore, we provide evidence to claim that this shock is robust and exclusive in Latin America. Thus suggesting that the army abolishment has indeed yielded long term benefits for Costa Rica. 1 Introduction Following the end of the civil in 1949, Costa Rica abolished its army and redirected its budget to- ward healthcare and education. Ever since and up to this day, Costa Rica has achieved some of the highest living standards and development indicators in Latin America. Furthermore, unlike most other countries in the region, Costa Rica has not had dictatorships or armed conflicts since the abolishment of its army. In addition, soon after the abolishment of its army, the country started experiencing a notable economic growth divergence relative to the rest of the countries in the region. Thus, these institutional changes along with long-standing democratic history have been considered to be factors of paramount importance that have led to these developmental achieve- ments and democratic stability in the country up to this day.

Whether speaking in terms of per capita income, education levels, political stability or Internet usage, Costa Rica proves to be very different compared to its geographical and political counterparts. As its key demographic indicators show, it has a very educated labor force, strong macroeconomic growth and forecasts, an excellent basic technical infrastructure, and a stable political environment. All of these lead to the conclusion that Costa Rica is in an excellent position to benefit from the Internet Revolution, and to make its presence felt in the Digital Economy.

  • PRIMARY HEALTH CARE and PLANNING in CUBA and COSTA RICA a Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell Univ
    PRIMARY HEALTH CARE AND PLANNING IN CUBA AND COSTA RICA A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Priscilla Rivas May 1988 FI hi £ Thesis hJA loci m i 1^ 612 © Priscilla Rivas 1988 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PRIMARY HEALTH CARE AND PLANNING IN CUBA AND COSTA RICA Priscilla Rivas, Ph.D. Cornell University 1988 This dissertation compares the efforts of Cuba and Costa Rica to provide primary health care (PHC) through the integration of health and development planning, regionaliza­ tion of health services, and community participation. The study reports the delivery of PHC and the health planning processes through which PHC has been organized. The central questions examined are: (1) whether Cuba and Costa Rica have delivered PHC to the extent they claim? (2) what role, if any, the integration of economic and health planning, regionalization of health services, and community participation have played in the delivery of PHC? and (3) whether the delivery of PHC is dependent on health planning and, if so, what type? The purpose has been to establish the relationship between health planning and the delivery of PHC in the two Latin American countries with best health indices. Both have successfully implemented PHC, but their socioeconomic structures are different: Cuba is a socialist centrally planned economy and Costa Rica is a capitalist, market economy. The fulfillment of descriptive criteria for PHC in Cuba and Costa Rica was used to examine the central questions from a historical and institutional perspec­ tive.
