Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Back to color Ethnic Origins, Race and Nation in Argentine Censuses -- Chapter 3: Statistics, regionalization and the rise of the dimension of the national in Brazil -- Chapter 4: Reckoning the might of the Republic: Official statistics and population in Colombia, 1886-1936 -- Chapter 5: Antonio Peñafiel, a physician collecting statistical figures to create a statistical culture for Mexican public life -- Chapter 6: The Caribbean Crucible. How the colonial experience shaped statistical practices in the French Caribbean -- Chapter 7: The Statistics on the Old French Colony of Guadalupe from the nineteenth century to the interwar period -- Chapter 8: Counting Before the Nations. Statistics and Enlightenment in South America.

This book brings together recent research on the sociopolitical history of Latin American statistics from the nineteenth to the first half of the twentieth century. Reflecting the influence of social constructivism in the social sciences, it sheds new light on the historical emergence and development of both statistical reasoning and practices within a region traditionally seen as a passive consumer of foreign-produced theories and methods. By analysing the early enthusiasm for enumerating reality and the processes of institutionalisation of statistics in different national spaces, from Mexico to the Southern Cone, these studies show the ways in which Latin America adapted and used this modern tool of government and social classification to build political regimes and scientific arenas. The volume offers valuable insights into the divergent regional trajectories of this discipline, advancing towards an understanding of statistics and its past from a truly global perspective. Cecilia T. Lanata-Briones is Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics, University of Warwick, UK, and Adjunct Researcher of the Centro Interdisciplinario para el Estudio de Políticas Públicas, Argentina. Andrés Estefane is an independent researcher based in Santiago, Chile; he received his Ph.D. in History from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, USA. Claudia Jorgelina Daniel is Adjunct Researcher at CONICET based in the Centro de Investigaciones Sociales, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina. .
