First published in Chile in 1969 as InterpretaciÓn del desarrollo social centroamericano, this classic is now available in English. The first attempt at an integrated analysis of modern Central America's socioeconomic structure, Torres Rivas's work traces the social development of Central America from independence (1871) up to the 1960s.Using a dependency framework, but not limited by it, Torres Rivas describes the various divisions of Central American society and their evolution within the liberal development model that has been so much a part of the past century of Central American economic history. The book is compelling in its explanation of the relationship between foreign and native elements in the social development of the region. Torres Rivas describes and analyzes the resulting long-term problems this development has posed for Central America. With a new chapter added for the English edition, History and Society in Central America remains vital for readers interested in the region.

Aproximarse a la comprensión de la obra de un sociólogo como Edelberto Torres-Rivas exige establecer esa conexión capital entre biografía e historia sobre la que tan inspiradoramente escribiera Charles Wright Milis. La imaginación sociológica, como insistía Milis, es la que permite conectar significativamente las inquietudes personales del medio con los problemas públicos de la estructura social. Gracias a ella es posible colocar lo particular y subjetivo, como desazón y problema, y también como curiosidad que convoca explicaciones, en ese contexto más amplio que es la estructura social en movimiento, es decir, en el marco de la historia. La imaginación sociológica, así, crea condiciones para que la sensibilidad ética del analista social tenga la oportunidad de enraizarse y desplegarse con mucha mayor pertinencia y profundidad. Un rasgo sobresaliente del trabajo de Edelberto Torres-Rivas ha sido poseer una rica imaginación sociológica en ese sentido, impregnada de una firme proclividad a adoptar la perspectiva centroamericana en cuanto al horizonte espacio-temporal de sus preguntas e indagaciones.
