Resumo(s)
In his classic book El contrapunteo cubano del tabaco y del azúcar ( [1940]
2002), Fernando Ortiz shows how two different plants and the products
they yield can be at the base of two distinct forms of life. The fascinating
revelation in his essay is how these two products (tobacco and sugar),
which are central elements in the emergence of consumer society at the
global level, give rise in their local mode of occurrence in Cuba to distinct
social environments. He outlines the complex relation between the
nature of the plants, the nature of the products, the nature of the social
relations of production, and the control of the means of production.
These, then, come to congeal over time into recognizable traditions of
human experience.
