Topik: colonialism; development; necesary causes; sufficient causes Isi artikel this article evaluates the relative strength and weaknesses of fuzzy-set analysis and regression analysis for explaining the " great reversal" in Spanich America. From 1750 to 1900, the most marginal colonial territories often become the region's wealthiest countries, whereas the most central colonial territories often become the region's poortest countries. to explains this reversal, five competing hypoteses are tested using both regression and fuzzy-set methods. the fuzzy-set analysis reaches substantively important conclusions, fiding that strong liberal factions are probabilistically necessary for economic development and that dense indigenous populations are propabilistically necessary for economic development and that dense indigenous populations are probabiliticaly necessary for social underdevelopment.
