Let V be a congruence distributive variety, or a congruence modular variety whose free algebra on 2 generators is finite. If V is residually small and has the amalgamation property, then it has the congruence extension property. Several applications are presented. In two previous papers [1] and [2], we considered the following question: if V is a residually small variety with the amalgamation p...
