This book would not have been possible without the help of Mira Wilkins, Eduardo Gamarra and Bruce Kelley, who read every line of my manuscript and made valuable recommendations. To them, my dearest appreciation and intellectual admiration. I thank David Callejo, Thomas Castillo, John Clasca and Paul Vicary for editing my final work. I am also indebted to the following people, who read parts or all of the manuscript and guided me through my research with their suggestions, comments and help: Arghyris Argyrhou, Mayra Beers, Ziulyn Chan, Noble David Cook, Alexander Easdale, Jerome Egger, Damin Fernndez, Csar Francis, Horacio Godoy, Saeed Hashemi, Jesse Hingson, Aart Holtslag, Manuel Moreno Fraginals, Diego Mndez, Rod Neumann, Nicholas Onuf, Roberto Pacheco, Teresita Pedraza, Nicols Snchez-Albornoz, Mark Szuchman, Joseph Ward, and Laura Zanotti.

I extend my gratitude to my friends and colleagues in the Departments of International Relations, Economics, and History, in the Latin American and Caribbean Center, and in the library of Florida International University in Miami, Universidad de Oviedo (Spain), Universidad Complutense de Madrid, the Spanish Ministries of Trade, Industry, and Infrastructure in Madrid, Universidad Catlica and Universidad San Carlos in Lima, and Centro Bartolom de las Casas in Cusco (Peru). All of them helped me do research and invited me to present my finished work. I am also thankful to Dolores Garca and Jos Montserrat for encouraging me all the time, to my family, for their permanent support, and to Ren Fernndez, who will not be able to read the book he encouraged me to write. This book is also dedicated to him.
