This paper was written while I was visiting professor at the Ibero-American Institute for Economic Research of the University of Göttingen. My research year at Göttingen was made possible by grants from the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) and the College of Letters and Science and the Graduate School of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. My original work on Chile's historical statistics was carried out while I was a member and under the auspices of Yale's Economic Growth Center.
