Capitalism and population in Latin American agriculture:  recent trends and problems.
"On the basis of a body of empirical research, the authors explore the relationship between agrarian structure and population [in Latin America].  After an introduction in which they present their theoretical and methodological orientation, they describe the current changing trends in agrarian structure, among which are the 'intensification' of the process of the penetration of capitalistic forms into agriculture."  They then discuss the relationships between agrarian structure and demographic variables, particularly fertility and migration.  In the final section, some guidelines for future research are presented.  This paper is a revised version of an evaluation study carried out to assess the contributions of 14 research projects financed by the Programme of Social Research on Population in Latin America (PISPAL).
