Abstract
This chapter1 will concentrate on economic developments in Central America in the two decades spanning the Great Depression.2 This period (1920–40) has been seriously neglected in Central American scholarship, so that the region’s performance has not been taken adequately into account in works purporting to offer an overview of the Latin American experience (e.g. Furtado, 1970).
