Resumen
The article analyzes collective action in road and bridge building in Costa Rica during the nineteenth century. Using a rational choice framework and the public goods theory, it addresses the social and economic processes that encouraged cooperation among peasants in developing the road network between the Valle Central and the Pacific port city of Puntarenas. It argues that the increasing commercialization of agriculture at the turn of the nineteenth century stimulated voluntary collective action among peasants, as well as institutional change to prevent free-riding.

Resumen
This research aims to analyze the thinking about the university model exhibited at the University of El Salvador (UES) during the first half of the 20th century and promoted from the journal La Universidad, the main organ of dissemination of this house of studies. It is concluded that a reformulation of higher education, based on autonomy, humanism and university-society links, was proposed from the beginning of the 20th century and different Salvadoran intellectuals exposed ideas regarding the need for an academic offer according to the national productive system, the analysis of national problems and a social extension that would give sensitivity to the student, involving him with the reality of the country.

Resumen
This paper explores how is evidence gathered, transformed, and selected during the current COVID-19 crisis, employing Panama’s housing ministry as a case study. We wish to better understand evidence pathways and provide strategies increasing scientific evidence uptake. Our research strategy was organized into a three-step sequential model: 1. The evidence gathering phase: we studied Covid-19’s effects on households deploying 135 surveys (n=135). 2. The evidence transformation phase: studying housing sector evidence assembled by different ministry divisions via 12 surveys and interviews with ministry personnel (n=12), and 3. The evidence selection phase: studying evidence employed by decision-makers, through a semi-structured interview with the housing minister (n=1). Results show that evidence pathways depend on social phenomena, including internal and external political power negotiations, social class identities, and representations of the role of government.

Resumen
Based on the consultation of journalistic material, such as editorials, opinion articles and reports, this paper aims to analyze and describe the way in which the counterrevolution was (re)represented in the pages of the newspaper La Nación. and the weekly magazines Universidad and Libertad. It is proposed as a starting point for the discussion that the Costa Rican written press was in charge of using a type of propaganda discourse, which was in charge of favoring or disfavoring the anti-Sandinistas depending on the political-ideological position of the newspapers. Thus, far from explaining what happened in Nicaragua, the press was concerned with attacking, through discourse, those who were considered the other, the threat. Similarly, it is proposed that in a context of the Cold War, the ways in which to refer to Nicaraguans were resignified.

Resumen
The existing files in the Foreign Relations section of the General Archive of Central America on communism in the region for the years 1929-1932 (B-99-30-6, 6724 and B-99-30-6, 6725), have allowed me to see that it is necessary to rethink the role of the Communist International and its international agents in the events that had their central point in the peasant insurrection in El Salvador. An insurrection that recent studies have been able to show was produced by structural causes that affected the peasantry of western Salvador, whose radicalization created points of contact with the Salvadoran Communist Party and International Red Aid.

Resumen
This article reports on documentary research aimed at analyzing the coverage made by the Panamanian media about the digital divide during the first six months of the pandemic. Using Google's advanced search, a corpus of 140 pieces of information was extracted and analyzed using the criteria of newsworthiness and information sources. The results show an episodic and shallow coverage of a complex phenomenon that generated a wide social discontent in a society with high levels of inequality. Recommendations are offered that could contribute to a dissemination aimed at the understanding of this phenomenon as a by-product of social inequality, but also as a deepener of it.

Resumen
In this article I analyze two problematic issues of the 1833s and 1930s in Costa Rica: the accentuation of the sexual division of labor after the emergence of the modern “working woman”and the increased presence of feminism. Both phenomena aroused male resistance that was expressed in the presence of openly vulgarizing and harassing discourses against women. For this purpose, I focus on a selection of news and opinion articles chosen after the review of 33 Catholic, liberal, socialist, workerist and anarchist newspapers of the period in question.

Resumen
This article pretends to study the little explored relations between evangelical political parties and the Trump phenomena in American electoral politics. After analyzing the American impact over the development of evangelical movement of this Central American country this essay explores the discussions about cultural imperialism and identity as key concepts that could explains the analyzed phenomena. The exam of the U.S. influence over the party system of its small neighbor is quite marginal: It seems that the traditional institutional stability of this isthmic democracy has allowed a very autonomous development of its political process in terms of the heavy American influence. In the end, the evangelical political parties do not have any link with the Republican Party, not in financial nor ideological aspects, which means that for this parties Trump´s figure and the 2020 American elections pass by far in terms of their interests and positions about their country public debate.
