Summary
The Corporación Editora Nacional is in the course of publishing the Nueva historia del Ecuador (Quito, 1988–), planned in fifteen volumes under the general editorship of E. Ayala Mora. Vols. 8, 9 and 10 cover the period 1870–1930. The basic historical bibliography remains R. E. Norris, Guía bibliográfica para el estudio de la historia ecuatoriana (Austin, Tex., 1978).
The following contemporary accounts deserve mention: J. Kolberg, Nach Ecuador (Freiburg, 1876); C. Weiner, América pintoresca: Descripción de viajes al nuevo continente (Barcelona, 1884); E. Festa, Nel Darien e nell’Ecuador, Diario de viaggio di un naturalista (Turin, 1909); R. Enock, Ecuador (London, 1914); M. Sáenz, Sobre el indio ecuatoriano y su incorporación al medio nacional (Mexico, D.F., 1933).
On political history, see E. Ayala Mora, Lucha política y origen de los partidos en Ecuador (Quito, 1978); H. Malo and E. Ayala Mora (eds.), Ecuador 1830–1930, Tomo 1, Política y sociedad (Quito, 1980) (the two subsequent volumes deal with art and culture, and economics); L. Alexander Rodríguez, The Search for Public Policy: Regional Politics and Government Finances in Ecuador, 1830–1940 (Berkeley, 1985); J. L. Mera, La dictadura y la restauración en la República del Ecuador (Quito, 1982); and I. Robalino Dávila, Orígines del Ecuador de hoy, 7 vols. (Puebla, Mexico, 1948–70), a series of well-documented politico-biographical studies.
Three works whose principal focus is on later years are useful for this earlier period are: O. Hurtado, El poder político en el Ecuador (Quito, 1977); R. Quintero, El mito delpopulismo en el Ecuador (Quito, 1980); G. Drekonja et al., Ecuador de hoy (Bogotá, 1978).
