  • 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.

  • Monograph-Ana Catalina Ramirez
    COSTA RICAN COMPOSER CARLOS ESCALANTE MACAYA AND HIS CONCERTO FOR CLARINET AND STRINGS A Monograph Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS by Ana Catalina Ramírez Castrillo May, 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Cynthia Folio, Advisory Chair, Music Studies Department (Music Theory) Dr. Charles Abramovic, Piano Department, Keyboard Department (Piano) Dr. Emily Threinen, Instrumental Studies Department (Winds and Brass) Dr. Stephen Willier, Music Studies Department (Music History) ABSTRACT The purpose of this monograph is to promote Costa Rican academic music by focusing on Costa Rican composer Carlos Escalante Macaya and his Concerto for Clarinet and Strings (2012). I hope to contribute to the international view of Latin American composition and to promote Costa Rican artistic and cultural productions abroad with a study of the Concerto for Clarinet and Strings (Escalante’s first venture into the concerto genre), examining in close detail its melodic, rhythmic and harmonic treatment as well as influences from different genres and styles. The monograph will also include a historical context of Costa Rican musical history, a brief discussion of previous important Costa Rican composers for the clarinet, a short analysis of the composer’s own previous work for the instrument (Ricercare for Solo Clarinet) and performance notes. Also, in addition to the publication and audio/video recording of the clarinet concerto, this document will serve as a resource for clarinet soloists around the world. Carlos Escalante Macaya (b. 1968) is widely recognized in Costa Rica as a successful composer. His works are currently performed year-round in diverse performance venues in the country.

Many of these fellowships are awarded to students from Latin America (nearly half of the students in the program). The commit- ment to Latin American archaeology also is illustrated by collaborative ties with numer- ous Latin American institutions and by the bilingual publication series, which makes the results of primary field research available to a worldwide audience. The Latin American Archaeology Publications Program publishes the bilingual From 1997—Left to right: Latin American Archaeology Fellows Hope Henderson (US), María Auxiliadora Cordero (Ecuador), Ana María Boada (Colombia), [Professor Dick Drennan], and Rafael Gassón (Venezuela).

This small territory that only encompasses 0.03% of the planet’s surface is home to nearly 5% of the Earth’s biodiversity. Costa Ricans, or Ticos, as they call themselves, have pro- tected over a quarter of their national territory creating national parks, wildlife refuges and biological reserves. Divided into 7 unique provinces: San José, Alajuela, Heredia, Cartago, Guanacaste, Puntarenas and Limón, Costa Rica offers visitors a wide range of experiences able to satisfy varying tastes and interests. Since the abolition of the army in 1948, Costa Rica has re- lied on democratic values and the strength of institutions as the founding pillars for progress and development, re- directing military spending to education and healthcare. Costa Ricans pride themselves in their healthy, peaceful and sustainable lifestyle, which they call “Pura Vida.” These words have become a true identifier for the nation’s vision and a welcoming message to all those ready to discover what Costa Rica has to offer. -4 COSTA RICANS PRIDE THEMSELVES IN THEIR HEALTHY, PEACEFUL AND SUSTAINABLE LIFE- STYLE, WHICH THEY CALL “PURA VIDA.” THESE WORDS HAVE BECOME A TRUE IDEN- TIFIER FOR THE NATION’S VISION AND A WEL- COMING MESSAGE TO ALL THOSE READY TO DISCOVER WHAT COSTA RICA HAS TO OFFER. -5 -6 -7 Happiness 1. comes first Costa Rica topped the Happy Planet Index in 2016, for the third time.

Public Relations Industry Brief History Latin American Origins Latin American studies about the origins of public relations in the continent establish a common denominator as to the source of the practice in the region. Costa Rica is no exception, and this common denominator plays a relatively important goal in the development and establishment not only in the country, but also for Central America in particular. According to early registries, the genesis of public relations in Latin America is closely related to the introduction of foreign companies, which were used to having public relations as part of their businesses, into the local economies (Molleda & Moreno, 2008).
