“…In their quest to commodify the natural world, they used flexible modes of producing knowledge, and as modern science was institutionalized in Peru specific environmental imaginary helped local scientific communities achieve their goals of political legitimacy in the eyes of the state (Saldaña, 2006;Scott, 1998, chap.1).…”

This article examines the relationship between local scientific ideas about the natural world and the economic potential to transform the modern nation-state in Peru during the late nineteenth century. Writings by the Peruvian scientist Luis Carranza indicate how support for a distinctive environmental imaginary of the country’s geography made it possible to conceptualize nature as an essential component of Peruvian identity. As a result, local scientists had to “imaginatively” reshape the nature of the Andes for modernization purposes. The social and political ramifications of these ideas in Carranza’s work were key to the foundation of scientific institutions such as the Geographical Society of Lima.

This article examines the role of international dynamics in the early development of Latin American patent regimes during the long nineteenth century. It locates various national systems in their international contexts and delineates their differences from late colonial times until the region's export age. It then investigates the role of Latin American countries in the international and regional patent agreements that emerged in the late nineteenth century. The article advances the hypothesis that patent institutions and multilateral agreements were far from an urgent necessity for Latin American countries and had a limited impact on the technological transformation of this region before 1930.
