  • The Maritime Voyage of Jorge Juan to the Viceroyalty of Peru (1735-1746)
    The Maritime Voyage of Jorge Juan to the Viceroyalty of Peru (1735-1746) Enrique Martínez-García — Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas* María Teresa Martínez-García — Kansas University** Translated into English (August 2012) One of the most famous scientific expeditions of the Enlightenment was carried out by a colorful group of French and Spanish scientists—including the new Spanish Navy lieutenants D. Jorge Juan y Santacilia (Novelda 1713-Madrid 1773) and D. Antonio de Ulloa y de la Torre-Giralt (Seville 1716-Isla de León 1795)—at the Royal Audience of Quito in the Viceroyalty of Peru between 1736 and 1744. There, the expedition conducted geodesic and astronomical observations to calculate a meridian arc associated with a degree in the Equator and to determine the shape of the Earth. The Royal Academy of Sciences of Paris, immersed in the debate between Cartesians (according to whom the earth was a spheroid elongated along the axis of rotation (as a "melon")) and Newtonians (for whom it was a spheroid flattened at the poles (as a "watermelon")), decided to resolve this dispute by comparing an arc measured near the Equator (in the Viceroyalty of Peru, present-day Ecuador) with another measured near the North Pole (in Lapland). The expedition to the Equator, which is the one that concerns us in this note, was led by Louis Godin (1704-1760), while Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis (1698-1759) headed the expedition to Lapland. The knowledge of the shape and size of the Earth had great importance for the improvement of cartographic, geographic, and navigation techniques during that time.

Although the country has historically always been characterised by high levels of socio-economic inequality – with the notable exception of the Sandinista revolutionary period (1979-90), when disparities declined markedly – the past decade in particular has seen the development of new processes of exclusion and differentiation, especially in urban areas. In many ways, these are part of a broader regional trend; as several recent studies have noted, many other Latin American cities are undergoing similar mutations.

  • Education Equity in Central America
    WORKING PAPER Educational Equity in Central America: A pending issue for the public agenda Introduction Diverse research has shown that there is a significant relationship between education and both family income and national economic development. In this regard, nations should use their school systems not only as a tool to promote economic development but also to redistribute wealth and secure the welfare of the most vulnerable citizens. However, sometimes the complete opposite occurs and nations invest heavier in the education of the most privileged sectors of society, reinforcing social inequality and excluding large sectors from economic development. The objective of this document is to discuss and quantify educational inequalities in Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua as well as to provide information for dialogue on public policies that contribute to the effective development of the CA-4 countries. Using the most recent household surveys available, a series of indicators have been analyzed in order to better understand the educational inequalities and disparities that exist in each of these countries. In addition, inequalities related to access, retention, and investment are also highlighted. The issue of educational quality has not been addressed at this time due to the fact that only Honduras has participated in regional studies to measure student learning. The Second Regional Comparative and Evaluative Study (SERCE) is scheduled to be conducted this year. As a result, this issue may be included in future investigations. This study is divided into four sections. First, access to education is evaluated in regards to location, gender, and socioeconomic status. Second, inequality in education distribution is quantified and retention rates are estimated, highlighting the differences between the highest and lowest income quintiles as well as the repetition and desertion rates per location, gender, and socioeconomic status.
