Abstract
This book has attempted to resolve the paradox of why Liberalism in Guatemala became more palatable in the 1870s after being violently rejected in the 1830s. This chapter situates the findings of the various chapters within an explicitly conceptual discussion of rebellion to understand better why the conditions and contingencies of the late 1820s and 1830s ended in a massive and successful subaltern insurrection, whereas those of the 1870s and 1880s did not. The discussion begins by considering the anatomy and evolution of the Carrera Revolt, and then continues with an evaluation of its genesis and subsequent success in theoretical terms. This analysis serves as the basis for an understanding of why the Liberal Reforma did not engender a more energetic and effective popular response. Finally, it considers the Reforma's implications for Guatemalan state formation in the context of recent literature on Mexico and Andean South America.
