This dissertation seeks to understand why some states are more able than others to exercise control over their population throughout the national territory: to collect taxes, ensure security, and enforce property rights. I focus on both the conditions which produced the initial divergence between strong and weak states, and the mechanisms underlying the persistence of this variation to the present. Using an original dataset measuring the extent of the state's reach through the national territory of Chile and Peru, I trace the roots of the current divergence in state infrastructural power to the mid 19 th century. At that time, both Chilean and Peruvian state leaders sought to assert the authority of the state over their territories and the populations within their borders. I argue that the Peruvian state failed in this effort to assert its authority because, loath to disrupt rural social hierarchies, leaders chose to place peripheral administration in the hands of local elites and establish a system of mediated rule. The successful Chilean state instead relied on direct rule; on officials who were not drawn from the communities in which they served.Subjects--Topical Terms:

I show that the persistence of the gap between Chile and Peru in state infrastructural power is due to the fact that the effective presence of the state at the local level creates the conditions for its own persistence. Even after the rise of labor in Chile, which took significant efforts to assert the authority of the state off the political agenda, the state continued to grow by accretion, as local societal actors pulled the state into the periphery for their own purposes. In Peru, where the state never took hold in most of the country, the emergence of labor hampered or precluded major efforts to assert state presence through the national territory, and the dynamic of growth by accretion never emerged. As a result, societal actors have undertaken many of the functions unfilled by a reticent state, which continues to play an extremely limited (in both spatial and functional terms) role in Peru.
