Resumen

BAPTISTA, Belén. La temprana vitivinicultura en Uruguay: surgimiento y consolidación (1870-1930). Am. Lat. Hist. Econ [online]. 2008, n.29, pp.99-129. ISSN 2007-3496.

This paper analyzes the emergence and consolidation of the wine industry in Uruguay during the first stage of industrial growth of the country, more known as "early industry" (1870-1930). The results indicate that one of the main factors which determine the evolution of the sector in the period was the plague of phylloxera, which requires a deep viticultural transformation and a technique modernization based in the increase of the land productivity. This process permited an important growth of the wine industry which, however, was accompanied by a technological immobility in the elaboration process. Finally, the work shows how the increase in the national elaboration volume, together with a hard fallen of the wine imports, made possible a fast process of import substitution during the period.

Palabras llave : Uruguay; viticulture; wine industry; technological change; Phylloxera.
