In republican Colombia, salt became an important source of revenue to the state, which levied taxes on it and in some cases controlled and profited from its production. Focusing his study on la Salina, Joshua M. Rosenthal offers a glimpse into the workings of the early Colombian state, its institutions, and their interactions with local citizens during this formative period.
