Abstract
In contrast to scholars who regard neoliberalism as the “end of history,” as irrevocably new and final, as a totally new stage of social engineering experimentation, labor-capital relations, and social movements, I seek in this chapter to develop a longer-term, dialectical perspective on the phenomenon as it has affected Nicaragua. The focus of the chapter is the continuities and discontinuities between developmentalism and neoliberalism as they have affected displacement and migration.
