    Series Statement: Histories of American Education
    Keywords: Funding of education & student finance ; History of the Americas ; Social discrimination & inequality
    Abstract: In Dividing the Public, Matthew Gardner Kelly takes aim at the racial and economic disparities that characterize public education funding in the United States. With California as his focus, Kelly illustrates that the use of local taxes to fund public education was never an inadvertent or de facto product of past practices, but an intentional decision adopted in place of well-known alternatives during the Progressive Era, against past precedent and principle in several states. From efforts to convert expropriated Indigenous and Mexican land into common school funding in the 1850s, to reforms that directed state aid to expanding white suburbs during the years surrounding World War II, Dividing the Public traces, in intricate detail, how a host of policies connected to school funding have divided California by race and class over time. In bringing into view the neglected and poorly understood history of policymaking connected to school finance, Kelly offers a new story about the role public education played in shaping the racially segregated, economically divided, and politically fragmented world of the post-1945 metropolis

    Series Statement: Sociology Transformed
    Keywords: Sociology ; Education ; Society & social sciences ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: This open access book presents a condensed history of Sociology in Mexico from its origins, through to the middle of the 19th century and up to the present day. The book analyses the interaction between sociology and the main economic, political and social change in the country, including the 1910 Mexican Revolution, the main social movements, the role of the intellectual exiles from Spain and Latin America, and the participation of women, who have often remained invisible in the history of sociology. The book explores how sociological discourse played a fundamental role in the separation of secular and public education and the search for a ‘national project’ from 1868 onwards, despite the lack of an institute of social research until 1930; how sociology became an autonomous social science, led by a few intellectuals and public figures, as it became institutionalized in universities, and the effect this had on the development of the discipline; the influence of Marxism during the 1970s; and the progression from a process of specialization after the fall of the Berlin Wall to a new trend of working in collective projects with an increasing interdisciplinary perspective in the first decades of the 21st century

    Civic Continuities in an Age of Revolutionary Change, c.1750-1850 : Europe and the Americas (2023)

    Series Statement: Palgrave Studies in Political History
    Keywords: European history ; History of the Americas ; General & world history ; Political science & theory ; History
    Abstract: This open access book explores the role of continuity in political processes and practices during the Age of Revolutions. It argues that the changes that took place in the years around 1800 were enabled by different types of continuities across Europe and in the Americas. With historians of modernity tending to emphasise the rise of the new, scholarship has leaned towards an assumption that existing modes of action, thought and practice simply became extinct, irrelevant or at least subordinate to new modes. In contrast, this collection examines continuities between early modern and modern political cultures and organization in Europe and the Americas. Shifting the focus from political modernization, the authors examine the continued relevance of older, often local, practices in (post)revolutionary politics. By doing so, they aim to highlight the role of local political traditions and practices in forging and enabling political change. The book argues that while political change was in fact at the centre of both the old and new polities that emerged in the Age of Revolutions, it coexisted with, and was indeed enabled by, continuities at other levels

    A City Against Empire : Transnational Anti-Imperialism in Mexico City, 1920–1930 (2023)

    Keywords: History of the Americas ; Colonialism & imperialism
    Abstract: A City Against Empire is the history of the anti-imperialist movement in 1920s Mexico City. It combines intellectual, social, and urban history to shed light on the city’s role as an important global hub for anti-imperialism, exile activism, political art, and solidarity campaigns. After the Russian and the Mexican Revolution, Mexico City became a space and a symbol of global anti-imperialism. Radical politicians, artists, intellectuals, scientists, migrants, and revolutionary tourists took advantage of the urban environment to develop their visions of an anti-imperialism for the twentieth-century. These actors imagined national self-determination, international solidarity, and an emancipation from what they called “the West.” Global, local, and urban factors interacted to transform Mexico City into the most important hub for radicalism in the Americas. By weaving together the intellectual history of Mexico, the urban and social histories of Mexico City, and the global history of anti-imperialist movements in the 1920s, this books analyses the perfect storm of anti-imperialism in Mexico City

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: As America's first professional female architect, Louise Blanchard Bethune broke barriers in a male-dominated profession that was emerging as a vital force in a rapidly growing nation during the Gilded Age. Yet, Bethune herself is an enigma. Due to scant information about her life and her firm, Bethune, Bethune & Fuchs, scholars have struggled to provide a complete picture of this trailblazer. Using a newly discovered archival source of photographs, architectural drawings, and personal documents, Kelly Hayes McAlonie paints a picture of Bethune never before seen.Born in 1856 in Waterloo and raised in Buffalo, New York, Bethune wanted to be an architect from childhood. In fulfilling her dream, she challenged the nation to reconsider what a woman could do. A bicycle-riding advocate for coeducation, Bethune believed in women's emancipation through equal pay for equal work. This belief would be tested during the design competition for the Woman's Building for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, where female entrants were not paid for their work. Bethune refused to participate on principle, but nonetheless her career thrived, culminating in the most important commission of her life, Buffalo's Hotel Lafayette. A comprehensive biography of the first professional woman architect in the United States, who was also the first woman to be admitted to the American Institute of Architects, this book serves as an important addition to New York and architectural history

    Abstract: This volume presents the first extensive census of the surviving copies of the treatise Historia Naturalis Brasiliae in libraries worldwide and examines the book from a variety of interdisciplinary viewpoints. The chapters in this volume are written by scholars from different fields of knowledge, including anthropology, botany, linguistics, literature, book history, medieval and early modern history, and art history. The chapters contextualize the treatise vis-à-vis its predecessors and contemporaneous works of natural history and examine its botanical, zoological, and linguistic accuracy and usefulness in the present day. Put together, the seven chapters of this volume present a kaleidoscope of possibilities of how to re-interpret Piso and Marcgraf’s work within the dynamic context of knowledge-production about the ‘New’ World in the early modern era, while also suggesting approaches to continue profiting from its subject matter in the present day. Toward an Intercultural Natural History of Brazil offers essential reading on the Historia Naturalis Brasiliae, natural history and Latin American history

    Ohio under COVID : Lessons from America's Heartland in Crisis (2023)

    Abstract: In early March of 2020, Americans watched with uncertain terror as the novel coronavirus pandemic unfolded. One week later, Ohio announced its first confirmed cases. Just one year later, the state had over a million cases and 18,000 Ohioans had died. What happened in that first pandemic year is not only a story of a public health disaster, but also a story of social disparities and moral dilemmas, of lives and livelihoods turned upside down, and of institutions and safety nets stretched to their limits. Ohio under COVID tells the human story of COVID in Ohio, America’s bellwether state. Scholars and practitioners examine the pandemic response from multiple angles, and contributors from numerous walks of life offer moving first-person reflections. Two themes emerge again and again: how the pandemic revealed a deep tension between individual autonomy and the collective good, and how it exacerbated social inequalities in a state divided along social, economic, and political lines. Chapters address topics such as mask mandates, ableism, prisons, food insecurity, access to reproductive health care, and the need for more Black doctors. The book concludes with an interview with Dr. Amy Acton, the state’s top public health official at the time COVID hit Ohio. Ohio under COVID captures the devastating impact of the pandemic, both in the public discord it has unearthed and in the unfair burdens it has placed on the groups least equipped to bear them

    Western Mesoamerican Calendars and Writing Systems : Proceedings of the Copenhagen Roundtable (2023)

    ISBN: 9781803274850

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Western Mesoamerican Calendars and Writing Systems draws together studies by some of the world’s leading experts presented at a conference held in December 2020, ‘The Origins and Developments of Central Mexican Calendars and Writing Systems’. Mesoamerica is one of the few places to witness the independent invention of writing. From the earliest attestations of this intellectual feat in the Late Preclassic period 900 bc-ad 150), writing spread throughout Mesoamerica, developing and diversifying into a series of distinct and independent scripts. With the exception of the celebrated phonetic decipherments of Maya and Aztec writing, which are now well-documented and can be fully read, most Mesoamerican writing systems remain little studied and undeciphered. This is particularly true of the writing systems of Western Mesoamerica, the topic of this volume.Bringing together new research on Western Mesoamerican writing systems, some contributions focus on specific features of a given writing system, whereas others offer state-of-the-art syntheses of whole writing systems. Two contributions focus on the calendar in particular, and associated notations, as integral parts of writing systems. Chapters are included on the writing system of Teotihuacan, the Ñuiñe writing of the Mixteca Baja and adjoining areas, the writing system of the Epiclassic period and Aztec writing of the Postclassic. These writing systems represent more than a millennium of written records and literacy in Mesoamerica, spanning from the Early Classic to the Late Postclassic (from the 2nd to the sixteenth centuries ad). Aztec writing even continued in use for several decades after the Spanish invasion of Mexico (ad 1519-1521), which saw the introduction of the Latin alphabet and the gradual obsolescence of Mesoamerican logophonetic writing systems

    Abstract: De 1821 à 1848, la Haute-Californie fut un territoire du Mexique nouvellement indépendant avant d’être annexée par les États-Unis à la suite d’une guerre entre les deux pays. La période est certes brève, et souvent considérée comme un échec ou un simple prélude au « rêve californien » étatsunien. Elle tombe dans un angle mort des deux histoires nationales. Mais ce qui se passe en Haute-Californie permet de penser plus avant ce moment clé de réinvention des imaginaires et des pratiques politiques suite aux révolutions et indépendances du tournant du xviiie et du xixe siècles : issu d’une colonisation récente (1769), ce territoire croise en effet des logiques impériales, coloniales, fédérales et nationales, dans un contexte de rivalités sur le continent nord-américain comme dans le Pacifique. On y lit un processus de politisation spécifique dans cette situation coloniale fait d’adaptation et d’invention et pas seulement de réception des idées et pratiques nouvelles. Ce livre s’appuie sur des sources en espagnol et dans une moindre mesure en anglais, localisées dans des fonds en Californie et à Mexico. Il s’inscrit au croisement de l’historiographie mexicaine et étatsunienne, en particulier celle des Borderlands (zone frontière États-Unis Mexique et ses populations amérindiennes, hispanophones, francophones et anglophones) et de l’histoire sociale du politique

    Abstract: Wood Buffalo National Park is located in the heart of Dénesųłıuné homelands, where Dene people have lived from time immemorial. Central to the creation, expansion, and management of this park, Canada 's largest at nearly 45, 000 square kilometers, was the eviction of Dénesųłıuné people from their home, the forced separation of Dene families, and restriction of their Treaty rights. Remembering Our Relations tells the history of Wood Buffalo National Park from a Dene perspective and within the context of Treaty 8. Oral history and testimony from Dene Elders, knowledge-holders, leaders, and community members place Dénesųłıuné voices first. With supporting archival research, this book demonstrates how the founding, expansion, and management of Wood Buffalo National Park fits into a wider pattern of promises broken by settler colonial governments managing land use throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. By prioritizing Dénesųłıuné histories Remembering Our Relations deliberately challenges how Dene experiences have been erased, and how this erasure has been used to justify violence against Dénesųłıuné homelands and people. Amplifying the voices and lives of the past, present, and future, Remembering Our Relations is a crucial step in the journey for healing and justice Dénesųłıuné peoples have been pursuing for over a century

    Abstract: This book looks at the Hispanic monarchy in America through its ability to territorialize the spaces theoretically under its control. While the analysis confirms the central role played by the city, its novelty lies in the effort made to spatialize and contextualize the notions of territorialization and circulation. The Spanish Empire appears as an atomized urban archipelago, favoring the affirmation of original idiosyncratic poles captured through the polysemy of the term “caste”, often reduced to the global concept of “race” by historiography. On the contrary, this book demonstrates the importance of specific forms of experience in defining belonging, while highlighting the social construction of spaces revealed by the circulation of the idea of “caste”

    Abstract: At the opening of the twentieth century, labor strife repeatedly racked the nation. Union organization and collective bargaining briefly looked like a promising avenue to stability. But both employers and many middle-class observers remained wary of unions exercising independent power. Vilja Hulden reveals how this tension provided the opening for pro-business organizations to shift public attention from concerns about inequality and dangerous working conditions to a belief that unions trampled on an individual's right to work. Inventing the term closed shop, employers mounted what they called an open-shop campaign to undermine union demands that workers at unionized workplaces join the union. Employer organizations lobbied Congress to resist labor's proposals as tyrannical, brought court cases to taint labor's tactics as illegal, and influenced newspaper coverage of unions. While employers were not a monolith nor all-powerful, they generally agreed that unions were a nuisance. Employers successfully leveraged money and connections to create perceptions of organized labor that still echo in our discussions of worker rights

    Abstract: Obsidian Across the Americas draws attention to recent obsidian studies in the Americas and acts as a reference for archaeologists and scholars interested in material culture and exchange. Moreover, it provides a wide range of case studies in obsidian characterization, material application, and theoretical interpretations in the Americas. The limited geographic occurrence and relatively homogenous nature of obsidian have made the material ideal for archaeometric studies. Since Cann and Renfrew’s seminal paper in 1967 on the compositional analysis of obsidian in the Mediterranean, analytical techniques have improved, identification and characterization of sources have increased, and applications have broadened geographically and theoretically to address various socio-cultural activities and behaviours around the world. While many previous publications have focused on different aspects of obsidian characterization, this volume uniquely presents obsidian compositional studies from across the Americas that have relied on the instrumentation housed in the Elemental Analysis Facility at the Field Museum of Natural History. The case studies, which feature materials from North American, Mesoamerican, and South American geological sources, explore the ways in which obsidian analyses have been used to investigate interactions, socio-economic exchanges, and socio-cultural change at multiple scales in the past

Watchfulness goes beyond counter-surveillance, as it is understood as a "way of life" and contributing to community building. The contributions pay attention to notions of borderlands, coloniality, subjectivity, struggle, the racialized body and the digital sphere

    Abstract: La multiplicación de referencias al Estado de derecho que se observa en los últimos años en México puede ser una expresión de su vitalidad, pero también de la decepción creciente respecto a su vigencia e, incluso, de su descomposición. A partir de investigaciones desarrolladas desde diferentes enfoques y en varias esferas, este volumen analiza algunos procesos institucionales y sociales que permiten entender el Estado de derecho en México. La militarización de tareas gubernamentales, la generalización de actividades ilegales como el despojo, la inobservancia de las reglas urbanísticas, el reformismo irreflexivo de la Constitución y otros muchos rasgos del orden jurídico mexicano y de sus operadores son examinados por los autores como procesos en los que se expresa un deterioro de las condiciones para hacer posible el Estado de derecho

    Abstract: The study writes a cultural history of transatlantic relations on the late 18th and 19th centuries. Using the example of the Neo-Spanish Dominican fray Servando Teresa de Mier (1763–1827), it examines how Hispanic American writers of the transition between the early modern and modern period transgressed geographic, cultural, and discursive border regimes, thereby preparing the political and literary independency of the previous Spanish colonies

    Abstract: Ce recueil d’essais sur l’histoire du Brésil repose sur un double pari : faire de la ville le personnage principal de cette histoire, et du rythme, le moteur de l’invention ou de l’articulation des espaces et sociétés. Si la ville est le sujet de l’histoire du Brésil, c’est parce que, telle une plaque tournante, elle est un lieu de création et d’impulsion d’un ensemble de processus rythmiques qui vont donner forme au Brésil. Les cas d’études que l’ouvrage analyse ici ambitionnent de poser les bases d’une rythmanalyse de la ville brésilienne qui invite à porter son attention sur les mobilités et les mouvements, les temporalités et leurs intervalles qui tressent la trame spatiale des sociétés

    Abstract: The thirteenth-century Muslim mystic and poet Jalal al-Din Rumi (1207-1273) is a popular spiritual icon. His legacy is sustained within the mystical and religious practice of Sufism, particularly through renditions of his poetry, music, and the meditation practice of whirling. In Canada, practices associated with Rumi have become ubiquitous in public spaces, such as museums, art galleries, and theatre halls, just as they continue to inform sacred ritual among Sufi communities. The Dervishes of the North explores what practices associated with Rumi in public and private spaces tell us about Sufism and spirituality, including sacred, cultural, and artistic expressions in the Canadian context. Using Rumi and contemporary expressions of poetry and whirling associated with him, the book captures the lived reality of Sufism through an ethnographic study of communities in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. Drawing from conversations with Sufi leaders, whirling dervishes, and poets, Merin Shobhana Xavier explores how Sufism is constructed in Canada, particularly at the nexus of Islamic mysticism, Muslim diaspora, spiritual commodity, popular culture, and universal spirituality. Inviting readers with an interest in religion and spirituality, The Dervishes of the North illuminates how non-European Christian traditions, like Islam and Sufism, have informed the religious and spiritual terrain of Canada

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: This social and cultural history of Civil War medicine and science sheds important light on the question of why and how anti-Black racism survived the destruction of slavery. During the war, white Northerners promoted ideas about Black inferiority under the guise of medical and scientific authority. In particular, the Sanitary Commission and Army medical personnel conducted wartime research aimed at proving Black medical and biological inferiority. They not only subjected Black soldiers and refugees from slavery to substandard health care but also scrutinized them as objects of study. This mistreatment of Black soldiers and civilians extended after life to include dissection, dismemberment, and disposal of the Black war dead in unmarked or mass graves and medical waste pits. Simultaneously, white medical and scientific investigators enhanced their professional standing by establishing their authority on the science of racial difference and hierarchy. Drawing on archives of the U.S. Sanitary Commission, recollections of Civil War soldiers and medical workers, and testimonies from Black Americans, Leslie A. Schwalm exposes the racist ideas and practices that shaped wartime medicine and science. Painstakingly researched and accessibly written, this book helps readers understand the persistence of anti-Black racism and health disparities during and after the war

    Abstract: The sudden emergence of the Trump nation surprised nearly everyone, including journalists, pundits, political consultants, and academics. When Trump won in 2016, his ascendancy was widely viewed as a fluke. Yet time showed it was instead the rise of a movement—angry, militant, revanchist, and unabashedly authoritarian. How did this happen? Twilight of the American State offers a sweeping exploration of how law and legal institutions helped prepare the grounds for this rebellious movement. The controversial argument is that, viewed as a legal matter, the American state is not just a liberal democracy, as most Americans believe. Rather, the American state is composed of an uneasy and unstable combination of different versions of the state—liberal democratic, administered, neoliberal, and dissociative. Each of these versions arose through its own law and legal institutions. Each emerged at different times historically. Each was prompted by deficits in the prior versions. Each has survived displacement by succeeding versions. All remain active in the contemporary moment—creating the political-legal dysfunction America confronts today. Pierre Schlag maps out a big picture view of the tribulations of the American state. The book abjures conventional academic frameworks, sets aside prescriptions for quick fixes, dispenses with lamentations about polarization, and bypasses historical celebrations of the American Spirit

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: Cet ouvrage présente au public francophone la figure de Samuel Wilberforce, et porte à sa connaissance la vitalité de l’anglicanisme victorien dont il fut une figure si importante comme évêque d’Oxford puis de Winchester (1845-1873). Au début du xixe siècle, l’Église d’Angleterre (ou Église anglicane) court le risque de devenir tout à fait obsolète. Rejetée par beaucoup comme un simple organe étatique, apparemment privée de toute énergie et de toute capacité à se réinventer par les mouvements de réveil religieux du siècle précédent, elle paraît également incapable de s’adapter au nouveau contexte philosophique et socio-économique de la révolution industrielle. Toutefois, à partir des années 1840, l’Église d’Angleterre réinvestit son rôle pastoral et spirituel afin de rester fidèle à sa fonction proverbiale et traditionnelle d’Église de la Nation. On le verra, ce n’est pas un hasard si l’épiscopat de Samuel Wilberforce coïncide avec cette évolution spectaculaire de son Église. Même 150 ans après sa mort, la vie et l’œuvre de Samuel Wilberforce ont beaucoup à nous apprendre concernant la place des Églises dans la Cité, ou la relation entre foi et science

What becomes of men the U.S. locks up and kicks out? From 2009 to 2020, the U.S. deported more than five million people-over 90 percent of them men. In Banished Men, Abigail Andrews and her students tell 186 of their stories. How, they ask, does expulsion shape men's lives and sense of themselves? The book uncovers a harrowing carceral system that weaves together policing, prison, detention, removal, and border militarization to undermine migrants as men. Guards and gangs beat them down, till they feel like cockroaches, pigs, or dogs. Many lose ties with family. They do not go "home." Instead, they end up in limbo: stripped of their very humanity. Against the odds, they fight for new ways to belong. At once devastating and humane, Banished Men offers a clear-eyed critique of the violence of deportation

    Abstract: The following book seeks to answer some of these questions, above all because, unlike the labor movement, little is known about the politicization of peasants at the beginning of the 20th century. In general, the investigations have described the process of worker politicization, mentioning the fundamental role played by the political parties, be it the Democratic Party, the Socialist Workers Party and the anarchist movement in the "awakening of the workers". On the other hand, they have described that the relationship between political parties and social movements was characterized by the limited autonomy of the latter around the former. This included the peasant movement, especially in its early years. But in recent decades, a series of studies have shown that agricultural workers were not "marginalized" or "absent" from national politics, but rather, the first peasant organizations were repressed and limited in their union activity, especially among the years 1938-1952

    Abstract: Globalizing the Soybean asks how the soybean conquered the West and analyzes why and how the crop gained entry into agriculture and industry in regions beyond Asia in the first half of the twentieth century.　 Historian Ines Prodöhl describes the soybean’s journey centered on three hubs: Northeast China, as the crop’s main growing area up to the Second World War; Germany, to where most of the beans in the interwar period were shipped; and the United States, which became the leading cultivator of soy worldwide during the 1940s. This book explores the German and U.S. adoption of the soybean being closely tied to global economic and political changes, such as the two world wars and the Great Depression. The attraction of the soybean to stakeholders on both sides of the Atlantic was linked to a need for cheap alternatives to butter and lard and a desire for greater quantities of meat, which led to the soybean becoming a cheap resource for fat and fodder. Only occasionally was it also used as food. This volume is useful for anyone who is studying or interested in economic history and commodity trading in the twentieth century. It is also connected to the histories of capitalism, globalization, imperialism, and materiality

    Abstract: A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. How Hip Hop Became Hit Pop examines the programming practices at commercial radio stations in the 1980s and early 1990s to uncover how the radio industry facilitated hip hop's introduction into the musical mainstream. Constructed primarily by the Top 40 radio format, the musical mainstream featured mostly white artists for mostly white audiences. With the introduction of hip hop to these programs, the radio industry was fundamentally altered, as stations struggled to incorporate the genre's diverse audience. At the same time, as artists negotiated expanding audiences and industry pressure to make songs fit within the confines of radio formats, the sound of hip hop changed. Drawing from archival research, Amy Coddington shows how the racial structuring of the radio industry influenced the way hip hop was sold to the American public, and how the genre's growing popularity transformed ideas about who constitutes the mainstream

    Keywords: Conservation of the environment ; History of the Americas ; Social & cultural anthropology, ethnography
    Abstract: This book explores omissions, or silences, in previous investigations of agrarian transformations by foregrounding indigenous experiences of capitalist development. Providing a rich and detailed ethnographic study, Mercedes Biocca shows how capitalist processes are perceived, experienced, and either confronted or accepted depending on the different ways in which dispossession, resistance and negotiation have become embedded in the collective local memory. Challenging accounts that efface the agency of subalterns in shaping rural dynamics, and ignore the diversity of perspectives within indigenous groups, Biocca untangles the connections between global, national and local spatial scales in her analysis of accumulation by dispossession. Using two case studies, the Qom People in Pampa del Indio and the Moqoit people in Las Tolderías, she presents the main transformations that have taken place in the Argentine agricultural sector during the hegemony of post-neoliberalism while centring the perceptions and roles of subalterns within these transformations

    Abstract: « Jamais les places prises et détenues en Amérique ne sont-elles devenues l'enjeu central des relations entre États européens, au point qu'elles provoqueraient des disputes et l'interruption des traités entre les royaumes et les États. » Ainsi s'exprime Charles Ier en 1631, faisant référence aux difficiles négociations qui se poursuivent depuis plus de dix mois entre l'Angleterre et la France au sujet des territoires d'Amérique du Nord revendiqués par Louis XIII. La guerre entre les deux royaumes, qui commence en juillet 1627, est surtout connue en raison de la descente effectuée par les troupes du duc de Buckingham sur l'île de Ré et par le cruel siège de La Rochelle qui s'ensuivit. Le conflit ne se limite toutefois pas à ces événements, comme il ne s'explique pas uniquement par le soutien qu'aurait voulu apporter le monarque anglais aux huguenots. Ainsi, ce livre replace les hostilités franco-anglaises dans le contexte plus large de la guerre de Trente Ans et examine comment les questions coloniales retardent pendant plusieurs mois la signature des traités de Saint-Germain-en-Laye qui les concluent officiellement en mars 1632

    Abstract: This text focuses on the PS during the 17 years of dictatorship that followed the coup that violently ended the Popular Unity government. The Pinochet regime subjected the PS to the traumatic task of recomposing itself in the midst of extreme repression, clandestinity, the exile diaspora and the intense debate around the causes of the defeat, the alternatives of the anti-dictatorial struggle and the possibilities and paths of a socialist project in Chile. The period is long and contains both continuities and deep transformations in Chilean socialism, which we have arranged, for analytical purposes, in three moments or cycles. Each cycle is characterized by being centered on certain debates and conditioning factors that determine the partisan dynamics of the organic socialists. The very historical development of each cycle implies its overcoming and the passage to another cycle with different distinctive characteristics

    Abstract: On August 8, 1942, 302 people arrived by train at Vocation, Wyoming, to become the first Japanese American residents of what the U.S. government called the Relocation Center at Heart Mountain. In the following weeks and months, they would be joined by some 10,000 of the more than 120,000 people of Japanese descent, two-thirds of them U.S. citizens, incarcerated as "domestic enemy aliens" during World War II. Heart Mountain became a town with workplaces, social groups, and political alliances-in short, networks. These networks are the focus of Saara Kekki's Japanese Americans at Heart Mountain. Interconnections between people are the foundation of human societies. Exploring the creation of networks at Heart Mountain, as well as movement to and from the camp between 1942 and 1945, this book offers an unusually detailed look at the formation of a society within the incarcerated community, specifically the manifestation of power, agency, and resistance. Kekki constructs a dynamic network model of all of Heart Mountain's residents and their interconnections-family, political, employment, social, and geospatial networks-using historical "big data" drawn from the War Relocation Authority and narrative sources, including the camp newspaper Heart Mountain Sentinel. For all the inmates, life inevitably went on: people married, had children, worked, and engaged in politics. Because of the duration of the incarceration, many became institutionalized and unwilling to leave the camps when the time came. Yet most individuals, Kekki finds, took charge of their own destinies despite the injustice and looked forward to the day when Heart Mountain was behind them. Especially timely in its implications for debates over immigration and assimilation, Japanese Americans at Heart Mountain presents a remarkable opportunity to reconstruct a community created under duress within the larger American society, and to gain new insight into an American experience largely lost to official history

    Abstract: Before American History juxtaposes Mexico City's famous carved Sun Stone with the mounded earthworks found throughout the Midwestern states of the U.S. to examine the project of settler nationalism from the 1780s to the 1840s in two North American republics usually studied separately. As the U.S. and Mexico transformed from European colonies into independent nations-and before war scarred them both-antiquarians and historians compiled and interpreted archives meant to document America's Indigenous pasts. These settler-colonial understandings of North America's past deliberately misappropriated Indigenous histories and repurposed them and their material objects as "American antiquities," thereby writing Indigenous pasts out of U.S. and Mexican national histories and national lands and erasing and denigrating Native peoples living in both nascent republics.Christen Mucher creatively recovers the Sun Stone and mounded earthworks as archives of nationalist power and Indigenous dispossession as well as objects that are, at their material base, produced by Indigenous people but settler controlled and settler interpreted. Her approach renders visible the foundational methodologies, materials, and mythologies that created an American history out of and on top of Indigenous worlds and facilitated Native dispossession continent-wide. By writing Indigenous actors out of national histories, Mexican and U.S. elites also wrote them out of their lands, a legacy of erasure and removal that continues when we repeat these eighteenth- and nineteenth-century settler narratives and that reverberates in discussions of immigration, migration, and Nativism today

    Abstract: The meeting between America and Europe began a first historical period that would extend over three centuries, always marked by the differences between two different ways of understanding the relations of domination between the two. This tension, constantly present and expressed in multiple ways, transports us inexorably to a convulsive beginning of the 19th century. A historical moment marked by the rupture, in capital letters, associated with the fall of the Old Regime, of obsolete models of political, economic and social organization, of archaic ways of thinking and acting. In this context, the disagreement in America had been made clear for quite some time. The emancipation processes came to signify, therefore, the confirmation that the American system was in absolute decline. We believe that the set of contributions that make up this work -precisely because of its heterogeneity, because of its different approaches and because it never abandons the overall perspective- contributes as one more grain of sand to the debate and discussion about our common history, about the difficult times that were lived and that never left us

    Abstract: Peasant Wars in Bolivia reveals the active political role played by the Cochabamba valley peasants during the 1952-64 revolutionary period in Bolivia from a non-state perspective. Based on contemporary research in social, political, and cultural issues in Latin America it blends sociological and anthropological methods to go beyond recognized contexts of central power and emphasize the revolutionary experience of the peasants themselves. Drawing on archival research, newspapers, interviews, and a wealth of secondary sources, the book argues that the Cochabamba valley mestizo population of rural workers forged their own collective "campesino" identity alongside their revolutionary struggles against regional elites and the state. This newly created identity allowed the campesinos entry into the Bolivian national political arena as dynamic actors, transformed their subjectivities, and changed the existing political culture of Bolivia. It goes on to analyze the historical status of the revolution and the role of the mestizo peasantry within it in the context of academic and political debates of the first two decades of the twenty-first century. Crossing established borders between history, anthropology, and sociology, Peasant Wars in Bolivia is a fascinating, interdisciplinary exploration of the revolutionary campesinos of the Cochabamba valley, of Bolivia's nationalist revolution, and of the ways it has been interpreted and understood within Bolivian politics and culture

    Abstract: Virginia's Racial Integrity Act of 1924 recodified the state's long-standing racial hierarchy as a more rigid Black-white binary. Then, Virginia officials asserted that no Virginia Indians could be other than legally Black, given centuries of love and marriage across color lines. How indigenous peoples of Virginia resisted erasure and built their identities as Native Americans is the powerful story this book tells. Spanning a century of fraught history, Being Indigenous in Jim Crow Virginia describes the critical strategic work that tidewater Virginia Indians, descendants of the seventeenth-century Algonquian Powhatan chiefdom, undertook to sustain their Native identity in the face of deep racial hostility from segregationist officials, politicians, and institutions. Like other Southeastern Native groups living under Jim Crow regimes, tidewater Native groups and individuals fortified their communities by founding tribal organizations, churches, and schools; they displayed their Indianness in public performances; and they enlisted whites, including well-known ethnographers, to help them argue for their Native distinctness. Describing an arduous campaign marked by ingenuity, conviction, and perseverance, Laura J. Feller shows how these tidewater Native people drew on their shared histories as descendants of Powhatan peoples, and how they strengthened their bonds through living and marrying within clusters of Native Virginians, both on and off reservation lands. She also finds that, by at times excluding African Americans from Indian organizations and Native families, Virginian Indians themselves reinforced racial segregation while they built their own communities. Even as it paved the way to tribal recognition in Virginia, the tidewater Natives' sustained efforts chronicled in this book demonstrate the fluidity, instability, and persistent destructive power of the construction of race in America

    Abstract: From April to November 1975, the US military processed over 112,000 Vietnamese refugees on the unincorporated territory of Guam; from 1977 to 1979, the State of Israel granted asylum and citizenship to 366 non-Jewish Vietnamese refugees. Evyn Lê Espiritu Gandhi analyzes these two cases to theorize what she calls the refugee settler condition: the fraught positionality of refugee subjects whose resettlement in a settler colonial state is predicated on the unjust dispossession of an Indigenous population. This groundbreaking book explores two forms of critical geography: first, archipelagos of empire, examining how the Vietnam War is linked to the US military buildup in Guam and unwavering support of Israel, and second, corresponding archipelagos of trans-Indigenous resistance, tracing how Chamorro decolonization efforts and Palestinian liberation struggles are connected through the Vietnamese refugee figure. Considering distinct yet overlapping modalities of refugee and Indigenous displacement, Gandhi offers tools for imagining emergent forms of decolonial solidarity between refugee settlers and Indigenous peoples. This is a phenomenal book that takes seriously the implication of Indigenous calls for place-based scholarship to refugee and migration studies and ups the ante by engaging the accountabilities such calls demand. Evyn Lê Espiritu Gandhi exemplifies the possibilities of reading 'archipelagically' across Indigenous and Asian American studies, across settler colonies, and against US militarism and empire." JODI A. BYRD, author of The Transit of Empire This strikingly original study demonstrates ways of knowing and connection otherwise- within, across, and beyond incommensurable structural divides and multiple belongings. Deeply inspiring, Gandhi's archipelagic methodology elucidates compelling political possibilities for decolonial futures." LISA YONEYAMA, author of Cold War Ruins

    Abstract: In The Currency of Empire, Jonathan Barth explores the intersection of money and power in the early years of North American history, and he shows how the control of money informed English imperial action overseas. The export-oriented mercantile economy promoted by the English Crown, Barth argues, directed the plan for colonization, the regulation of colonial commerce, and the politics of empire. The imperial project required an orderly flow of gold and silver, and thus England's colonial regime required stringent monetary regulation. As Barth shows, money was also a flash point for resistance; many colonists acutely resented their subordinate economic station, desiring for their local economies a robust, secure, and uniform money supply. This placed them immediately at odds with the mercantilist laws of the empire and precipitated an imperial crisis in the 1670s, a full century before the Declaration of Independence. The Currency of Empire examines what were a series of explosive political conflicts in the seventeenth century and demonstrates how the struggle over monetary policy prefigured the patriot reaction to the Stamp Act and so-called Intolerable Acts on the eve of American independence. Thanks to generous funding from the Arizona State University and George Mason University, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access (OA) volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other Open Access repositories

    Abstract: The artistic work, understood as a concept and a tangible object in any of its multiple technical and aesthetic categories, stands as an invaluable source of information, not only because of its intrinsic values, such as its formal characteristics, style or by whom it was created, among others. , but also for its ability to represent and make visible aspects of daily life, symbols of civil and religious power, beliefs, devotions and rites, historical events, social elements, feelings or connections between various plastic manifestations, transcending the limits of the merely artistic. until it becomes an object or artifact that encapsulates and preserves the culture, thought and concerns of a given time and a specific geographical space. This volume is made up of twenty-two papers by specialists participating in the Visual History and Culture Symposium, as well as others who have kindly accepted our invitation to share their studies. In the same way that the contributions collected are bidirectional between the New World and the Old Continent, their authors come from academic, cultural institutions and research centers located in the American and European space, making the relevance of these topics visible today through international level

    Abstract: The great merit and originality of this book lies in the fact that it analyzes the process of the creation of the Marxist theory of dependency by investigating the writings of its founders, now deceased, and through the current reflections of several of its closest collaborators. The current generations of students and researchers may not know this theory and its significance or only have a vague idea about it because it was formulated more than half a century ago and was displaced by the neoliberal dogmatic turn. I invite you to read this book to respond to current challenges by rescuing and renewing Latin American critical thinking (Cristobal Kay)

    Keywords: Sociology ; Political structure & processes ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: Este libro es un ensayo extendido sobre las dinámicas de desarrollo y resistencia desatadas por los avances del extractivismo, una forma de capitalismo que se caracteriza por una crisis multidimensional de alcance global. El extractivismo toma diversas formas, pero el epicentro en su más reciente encarnación es América Latina. La región ha sido el principal blanco de sus impactos socioecológicos negativos, pero también el escenario de las fuerzas más poderosas de resistencia. El autor aborda tres dimensiones críticas de este proceso, incluyendo la nueva geoeconomía y geopolítica del capital, las resistencias en la frontera extractiva y las alternativas propuestas por los gobiernos formados en el »ciclo progresista« en la política, y construidos desde abajo por las comunidades indígenas y no indígenas en la frontera. Finalmente, cierra con una reflexión sobre la posibilidad de una transición postextractivista a un otro mundo de solidaridad social y armonía con la naturaleza, en condiciones de justicia social y ecológica

    Abstract: When ungroovy scientists did groovy science: how non-activist scientists and engineers adapted their work to a rapidly changing social and political landscape. In The Squares, Cyrus Mody shows how, between the late 1960s and the early 1980s, some scientists and engineers who did not consider themselves activists, New Leftists, or members of the counterculture accommodated their work to the rapidly changing social and political landscape of the time. These "square scientists," Mody shows, began to do many of the things that the counterculture urged: turn away from military-industrial funding, become more interdisciplinary, and focus their research on solving problems of civil society. During the period Mody calls "the long 1970s," ungroovy scientists were doing groovy science. Mody offers a series of case studies of some of these collective efforts by non-activist scientists to use their technical knowledge for the good of society. He considers the region around Santa Barbara and the interplay of public universities, think tanks, established firms, new companies, philanthropies, and social movement organizations. He looks at Stanford University's transition from Cold War science to commercialized technoscience; NASA's search for a post-Apollo mission; the unsuccessful foray into solar energy by Nobel laureate Jack Kilby; the "civilianization" of the US semiconductor industry; and systems engineer Arthur D. Hall's ill-fated promotion of automated agriculture

    Abstract: This volume is the product of a collaborative research program undertaken since 2014 by the Société d'Études Interdisciplinaires sur les Femmes au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance (seifmar). This program has focused on various aspects of the relationship between women and the religious in Europe during the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era, as well as how this interaction expanded across the Atlantic. Studies dedicated to the impact of women on the social, intellectual, and religious affairs of their era have grown in popularity over the past few decades. Research on these issues, however, has not progressed in an altogether coherently. On the contrary, it has presented considerable discrepancies in context and geography, as well as in the various aspects, themes, and research angles that this exceptionally broad domain encompasses. Moreover, there has been a profound lack of dialogue between researchers. Evidence of a communication breakdown is threefold: spatial, between different countries, and between the two sides of the Atlantic; temporal, between specialists of different time periods, in particular between medievalists and early-modernists; and lastly what can be called a lack of intra/ interdisciplinary communication. The above- mentioned research program was designed to eschew these traditional limitations

    Abstract: Comment comprendre la politisation des violences sexistes et leur perpétuation dans un environnement institutionnel en apparence favorable à leur sanction ? Ce livre retrace la construction en enjeu public des violences contre les femmes au Nicaragua, et la façon dont ce phénomène traverse historiquement trois régimes politiques (de la fin de la dictature des Somoza à l’essai d’instauration démocratique) et une guerre civile en période de guerre froide. Cet enjeu a été consubstantiel au façonnement du féminisme nicaraguayen de la deuxième vague, en collusion et en collision avec les dirigeants révolutionnaires sandinistes. Puis, il s’est inscrit dans une nouvelle acception des droits humains. L’investissement de ce langage juridique a engendré une production contradictoire du droit, où ont fini par se côtoyer la pénalisation des violences intrafamiliales et sexuelles, et l’interdiction totale de l’avortement. Enfin, ces processus ont paradoxalement contribué au reflux d’une expression latente sur les crimes sexistes perpétrés sur les fronts guerriers. Cet ouvrage permet de relire l’histoire nicaraguayenne contemporaine à l’aune du genre. Il apporte un regard neuf sur l’imbrication des pactes patriarcaux et de pouvoir dans l’entretien des violences sexistes. Il fournit des éléments de compréhension plus généraux sur la façon dont les politiques contre ces violences sont menées dans une sorte de dissociation instrumentale entre l’objet fédérateur qu’elles représentent, et l’étouffement de controverses plus souterraines qu’elles engendrent à propos de l’impunité masculine

    Abstract: In this book, Josephine Lee looks at the intertwined racial representations of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century American theater. In minstrelsy, melodrama, vaudeville, and musicals, both white and African American performers enacted blackface characterizations alongside oriental stereotypes of opulence and deception, comic servitude, and exotic sexuality. Lee shows how blackface types were often associated with working-class masculinity and the development of a nativist white racial identity for European immigrants, while the oriental marked what was culturally coded as foreign, feminized, and ornamental. These conflicting racial connotations were often intermingled in actual stage performance, as stage productions contrasted nostalgic characterizations of plantation slavery with the figures of the despotic sultan, the seductive dancing girl, and the comic Chinese laundryman. African American performers also performed common oriental themes and characterizations, repurposing them for their own commentary on Black racial progress and aspiration. The juxtaposition of orientalism and black figuration became standard fare for American theatergoers at a historical moment in which the color line was rigidly policed. These interlocking cross-racial impersonations offer fascinating insights into habits of racial representation both inside and outside the theater

    Abstract: Following conflicting desires for an Aztec crown, this book explores the possibilities of repatriation. In The Contested Crown, Khadija von Zinnenburg Carroll meditates on the case of a spectacular feather headdress believed to have belonged to Montezuma, the last emperor of the Aztecs. This crown has long been the center of political and cultural power struggles, and it is one of the most contested museum claims between Europe and the Americas. Taken to Europe during the conquest of Mexico, it was placed at Ambras Castle, the Habsburg residence of the author’s ancestors, and is now in Vienna’s Welt Museum. Mexico has long requested to have it back, but the Welt Museum uses science to insist it is too fragile to travel. Both the biography of a cultural object and a history of collecting and colonizing, this book offers an artist’s perspective on the creative potentials of repatriation. Carroll compares Holocaust and colonial ethical claims, and she considers relationships between indigenous people, international law and the museums that amass global treasures, the significance of copies, and how conservation science shapes collections.

    Abstract: Esta obra contribuye a comprender la compleja relación entre las iglesias y el Estado respecto a los pueblos indígenas. La primera parte recoge contribuciones de misioneros, teólogos, antropólogos e historiadores. Sus artículos exponen casos de la Amazonía ecuatoriana y peruana relacionados con las misiones capuchinas, salesianas y franciscanas. Incluye también un estudio sobre la relación de la misión franciscana con los mapuche en su doble rol de agente gubernamental y evangelizadora y un estudio de caso en Chimborazo, así como una revisión crítica de los documentos en torno al Sínodo para la Amazonía. La segunda parte transcribe tres documentos relacionados con los hechos acaecidos en las Escuelas Residenciales Indígenas de Canadá que conmocionaron la opinión pública. Se trata de un fragmento del Informe de la Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación de Canadá (2015); la Declaración de disculpa de los obispos católicos de Canadá a los indígenas de esta tierra; y, finalmente, la Carta abierta del Equipo de Pastoral Indígena (EDIPA) de Neuquén (Argentina) que se hace eco de los sucesos de Canadá desde la perspectiva de solidaridad, sanación y reparación

    Abstract: Este es un trabajo colectivo, a partir de una convocatoria abierta, que dio como resultado el libro titulado: Perfiles etnohistóricos en América Latina y el Caribe, que contiene artículos que presentan resultados de investigaciones, reflexiones críticas, teóricas, metodológicas y técnicas de investigación utilizadas en los estudios etnohistóricos del área. El interés de la obra fue generar el debate sobre la articulación de los contextos locales a los procesos de la globalización y sus nexos históricos, políticos, sociales y culturales con América Latina y el Caribe. Es por lo que, en su mayoría, los textos trascienden las barreras geográficas y geopolíticas, y van más allá de los nacionalismos, regionalismos o de las áreas geográficas comúnmente trazadas por las fronteras del Estado nación. Los escritos permiten entender las diversas dinámicas sociales e interrelaciones históricas y geográficas del continente, con el entramado de nexos globales que inciden en la construcción de formas, fronteras e imaginarios particulares de ver, conocer y dominar al “otro” y lo “otro”. El libro está dividido en dos grandes secciones, una Etnohistorias de América Latina, siglos XVI-XX, y la otra Historia, derecho, género y políticas en América Latina, siglos XX y XXI. La primera sección inicia con el artículo denominado, Los Izalcos: Un altépetl complejo registrado por los tlaxcaltecas en 1524, de Hugo Díaz Chávez, Julio César Alvarado Hernández y David Calogero Messana Villafranco. Este artículo aporta a la comprensión de la distribución geográfica de los pueblos nahuas antes de la invasión y ocupación europea, así como, su impronta en las divisiones administrativas actuales

    Abstract: En 2021 se cumplieron 500 años de la caída de México-Tenochtitlan, hito que marca, en el discurso histórico, artístico, literario, social, la conquista del centro de México. Este libro se inserta en el debate abierto por las conmemoraciones y las disputas críticas que se han venido desplegando internacionalmente desde mediados de la década pasada, y lo hace con una perspectiva latinoamericana y situada. Orientado tanto al lector especializado como a un público más amplio, este volumen entrelaza lecturas clásicas, aproximaciones renovadoras a la conquista de México, y reflexiones en torno a otros discursos y representaciones (visuales, materiales, arquitectónicas) que han marcado los modos en que este acontecimiento y sus imágenes han sido interpretados

    Abstract: A veinte años de su primera edición, el presente trabajo sigue siendo provocativo, abre interrogantes, debates y fuertes críticas, tanto desde el ámbito académico como desde la militancia. Para el autor, el estudio de la guerrilla se convierte en una puerta de entrada para acercarnos a la historia reciente de la Argentina, con un tema complejo de abordar, en tanto nos permite comprender la violencia que caracterizó al país en las décadas de los sesenta y los setenta desde otra óptica. Este libro nos demuestra que la violencia en la Argentina era parte del sentido común de la sociedad, y en ese sentido, la guerrilla no era ajena a ello.

    Abstract: Up in Arms provides an illustrative and timely window onto the ways in which guns shape people’s lives and social relations in Texas. With a long history of myth, lore, and imaginaries attached to gun carrying, the Lone Star State exemplifies how various groups of people at different historical moments make sense of gun culture in light of legislation, political agendas, and community building. Beyond gun rights, restrictions, or the actual functions of firearms, the book demonstrates how the gun question itself becomes loaded with symbolic firepower, making or breaking assumptions about identities, behavior, and belief systems. Contributors include: Benita Heiskanen, Albion M. Butters, Pekka M. Kolehmainen, Laura Hernández-Ehrisman, Lotta Kähkönen, Mila Seppälä, and Juha A. Vuori

    Abstract: For almost two decades before Canada officially adopted multiculturalism in 1971, a large network of women and their allies in Toronto were promoting pluralism as a city- and nation-building project. Before Official Multiculturalism assesses women as liberal pluralist advocates and activists, critically examining the key roles they played as community organizers, frontline social workers, and promoters of ethnic festivals. The book explores women's community-based activism in support of a liberal pluralist vision of multiculturalism through an analysis of the International Institute of Metropolitan Toronto, a postwar agency that sought to integrate newcomers into the mainstream and promote cultural diversity. Drawing on the rich records of the Institute, as well as the massive International Institutes collection in Minnesota, the book situates Toronto within its Canadian and North American contexts and addresses the flawed mandate to integrate immigrants and refugees into an increasingly diverse city. Before Official Multiculturalism engages with national and international debates to provide a critical analysis of women's pluralism in Canada

    Abstract: In 1988, the first bilingual educational model in Latin America, managed autonomously by an indigenous social movement, was institutionalized in Ecuador. The will was to challenge the hierarchies of knowledge and an exclusive society. Since the colonial period, the indigenous population, their languages, knowledge and practices had been confined to a subordinate and invisible condition. It had been done through discourses and measures that imagined and manufactured 'the other as other', and reduced it to the space of the non-human, in order to legitimize exploitation and oppression. The indigenous movement, creator of the project, broke into history with the 1990 uprising, and presented itself as a subversive force whose purpose was to decolonize the Ecuadorian racist imaginary. He proposed a political and epistemological challenge, to build what Latin American critical thinking has called "critical interculturality." This proposal, different from multiculturalism, is forged in a counter-discourse that is based on creating a group ('we, the indigenous people') linked by centuries of discrimination, and an 'ancestral' and 'millennial' culture, which is recreated and reinvented claiming a new identity. In this book, the author analyzes the historical reasons why the Intercultural Bilingual Education (EIB) project emerged in Ecuador. In addition, the tensions between this, aimed at decolonizing knowledge and subverting racialized hierarchies, and how it was applied in a State that declares itself 'intercultural and plurinational'. Through an analysis that is historically based and solidly anchored in field work, she will try to answer the multiple questions that arise in the daily practice of the project

    Abstract: Les récits relatifs à la fabrique des nations sont toujours pleins d'oublis. Dans le cas du Brésil, considérer que les peuples indigènes ont joué un rôle actif dans l'histoire du pays revient à toucher un château de cartes : il suffit d'en déplacer une seule pour que tout l'édifice s'écroule et pour que les interprétations consacrées, les certudes les mieux ancrées, s'effondrent. Le chercheur doit alors construire de nouvelles interprétations, mettre à distance les catégories de pensée héritées de l'ère coloniale et toujours bien présentes dans les sociétés contemporaines, revoir de manière critique son outillage méthodologique et ses instruments d'analyse. En considérant les marges comme de possibles façonneuses du centre et en s'interrogeant sur les régimes d'altérité, il devient alors en mesure de bâtir à nouveaux frais un récit alternatif sur la naissance d'une nation. Sur la base d'un travail ethnographique et dialogique engagé auprès des peuples autochtones brésiliens depuis plusieurs décennies, João Pacheco de Oliveira propose dans cet ouvrage une autre histoire du Brésil et de la formation des identités brésiliennes. Cet exercice d'anthropologie historique donne à voir les tensions complexes qui ont existé et existent toujours entre la pratique disciplinaire du pouvoir et les formes de résistance, de rébellion à l'autorité, entre les politiques publiques nationales et les dynamiques de la mondialisation, entre les héritages de l'époque coloniale et les mutations les plus contemporaines

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: With a marked revolutionary and workerist phraseology with libertarian overtones, the first revolutionary unionists in Argentina came from within the Socialist Party led by Juan B. Justo, within which they had challenged their growing electoral and parliamentary orientation, under the influence of the new ideas that they were beginning to gain ground in the French and Italian labor movement. At the beginning of the 20th century, intense social struggles in Argentina catalyzed this process of political differentiation, in the context of the first general strikes and direct confrontations with the state and the ruling class. During the following years, revolutionary syndicalism unfolded as a dynamic and ductile current within a recently formed, heterogeneous and highly ethnically fragmented labor movement. The book that we present here continues and advances on the investigations carried out in the last period, providing a set of original works that examine little-reported aspects of the Creole revolutionary syndicalist current during the period prior to the first government of Hipólito Yrigoyen (1916-1922), the mandate itself and the subsequent moment, already under the presidency of Marcelo T. de Alvear (1922-1928). Starting from a careful study of primary sources, the chapters investigate aspects such as: the syndicalist political formation prior to 1916; militancy and organization in the wood industry; the activation of revolutionary unionism among rural workers; the link between trade unionism and the world of women's work; the positions and struggles within the current around the state project of legal status for unions

    Abstract: This study re-examines and contextualises Eduard Seler's investigations in the Chaculá-Region (Department of Huehuetenango, Guatemala). Starting with a discussion of ethnohistory as well as the historical circumstances of Seler's research, his methods are critically examined in the context of archaeology in late 19th century Guatemala and the practice of collecting by European museums, specifically the Ethnological Museum Berlin. This is followed by the results of a reconnaissance of the different archaeological sites documented by Seler in the region, in which their current state of preservation is examined and Seler's excavation trenches are re-discovered. The core of the work is a new study of the materials from the region in the collection of the Ethnological Museum Berlin, including previously undocumented ceramic materials. Through typological cross-dating, a first ceramic chronology for the region is established, showing that the major settlements were occupied from the Late Classic (600-900) to the Early Postclassic (900-1250). These data and observations form the foundation for a re-examination of the interpretations put forth by Eduard Seler and later scholars, concerning topics such as architecture, burials and caches, the function of the Quen Santo caves, ritual and settlement continuity from the Late Classic to modern times and the ethnolinguistic identity of the ancient inhabitants of the region. The book concludes with a look at the postcolonial challenges that the collection in Berlin faces and ways to connect the archaeological past with the indigenous present in the Chaculá-Region

    Abstract: The existing studies and lines of research around the Solidarity Organization of the Peoples of Asia, Africa and Latin America and the Tricontinental design are relatively recent in the field of history. There is no work that has delved into the materials collected within the more than one hundred and eighty-four issues published by the Tricontinental magazine to date. This study, which delves into the history of the organization and into the analysis of three specific representational models of Tricontinental graphic art, aspires to offer new interpretive keys around the Femininity of the Global South, the image of Ernesto Che Guevara and the Imperialism from an alternative point of view scarcely worked until now in the field of historical research

    Abstract: The contributions assembled in this volume present cutting-edge research that examines the network of Indo-American interconnections over a wider time frame. The case studies stretch into the American republic’s early decades, hinting at a longer history of mutual influence and exchange, beyond the registers of the American century’ of globalization. By bringing together academics working across disciplines ranging from history to cultural and literary studies, comparative religion, political science and sociology, this volume thus foregrounds and historicizes the complex, multi-sited, polyvalent nature of the Indo-US encounter. At the same time, the book explores the possibilities of methodologically engaging with established categories—such as the nation, the imperial and Empire—and test alternative typologies to understand this encounter better. Taken together, our authors reconstruct the myriad ways in which Americans and Indians have engaged with each other through trade, diplomacy, intellectual comradeship, missionary evangelism and revolutionary fervor

    Abstract: What might a sensible community choose to do if its economy has fallen apart and becoming a ghost town is not an acceptable option? Unfortunately, answers to this question have long been measured against an implicit standard: the postwar economy of the 1950s. After showing why that economy provides an implausible standard-made possible by the lack of economic competition from the European and Asian countries, winners or losers, touched by the war-John Henry Schlegel attempts to answer the question of what to do. While Waiting for Rain first examines the economic history of the United States as well as that of Buffalo, New York: an appropriate stand-in for any city that may have seen its economy start to fall apart in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. It makes clear that neither Buffalo nor the United States as a whole has had an economy in the sense of "a persistent market structure that is the fusion of an understanding of economic life with the patterns of behavior within the economic, political, and social institutions that enact that understanding" since both economies collapsed. Next, this book builds a plausible theory of how economic growth might take place by examining the work of the famous urbanist, Jane Jacobs, especially her book Cities and the Wealth of Nations. Her work, like that of many others, emphasizes the importance of innovation for economic growth, but is singular in its insistence that such innovation has to come from local resources. It can neither be bought nor given, even by well-intentioned political actors. As a result Americans generally, as well as locally, are like farmers in the midst of a drought, left to review their resources and wait. Finally, it returns to both the local Buffalo and the national economies to consider what these political units might plausibly do while waiting for an economy to emerge

    Abstract: Este volumen reúne las voces de filósofos y filósofas colombianos, así como voces provenientes de otras latitudes del continente, en un esfuerzo por pensar en tiempo real los acontecimientos sucedidos en Colombia relacionados con el Paro Nacional en 2021 y sus consecuencias y ecos desde y sobre la región. Claves históricas para comprender la crisis actual se suman a perspectivas políticas, sociales y culturales que permiten analizar las diferentes dimensiones de lo ocurrido durante la protesta social. Políticas neoliberales, desigualdades intensificadas por la pandemia, falta de acceso a derechos y respuesta represiva del Estado, por una parte, frente al concepto del Buen Vivir, un nuevo proyecto de vida en común y la emergencia de nuevas subjetividades, por otra, son solo algunos de los conceptos gracias a los cuales se propone abordar un proceso que está lejos de haberse cerrado

    Abstract: L'histoire de la seigneurie laurentienne est-elle la fille du conflit politique ? C'est, entre autres, à cette question que répond Le féodalisme dans la vallée du Saint-Laurent. Dans cet ouvrage, Matteo Sanfilippo résume et analyse 250 années (1763-2008) de production historiographique au Canada français et au Canada anglais portant sur le régime seigneurial laurentien. Mais l'ambition du livre est aussi de remettre dans le contexte politique qui leur est propre les discours des historiens sur le régime seigneurial. Ce faisant, il montre résolument comment le champ de l'histoire de ce régime est inextricablement lié aux dynamiques politiques canadiennes. Fruit du regard objectif d'un historien italien ayant longtemps fréquenté les travaux anglophones et francophones, Le féodalisme dans la vallée du Saint-Laurent est un essai unique dans le paysage historiographique canadien. Il est ici traduit en français pour la première fois. À l'heure d'un renouveau certain pour l'histoire seigneuriale, les lecteurs pourront découvrir la passionnante histoire de la seigneurie laurentienne, et faire la rencontre de la pensée de Matteo Sanfilippo. Enfin, les historiens Olivier Guimond et Arnaud Montreuil signent une postface dans laquelle ils poursuivent les réflexions de Matteo Sanfilippo entre 2008 et aujourd'hui.L'histoire de la seigneurie laurentienne est-elle la fille du conflit politique ?

    Keywords: Media studies ; Politics & government ; History of the Americas ; Guantanamo ; politics ; media ; journalism ; human rights ; security state ; violence
    Abstract: For the last twenty years, the Guantánamo Bay detention camp has not just been a military prison and security facility, but also a site of media production. Films, photographs, and documents have continued to emerge from the camp and become the focus of fierce legal and political battles, as well as intense moral anguish. This book looks at how the US Department of Defense has struggled, and often failed, to control the public perception of these media objects through complex, layered framing devices. It traces how small ruptures in the Department’s framings have provided openings for critical interventions from various fields – ranging from journalism and human rights law to the arts. Guantánamo Frames thus lays the groundwork for a critical reappraisal of the entanglement of media, violence, and the security state in a broader sense

    Abstract: In order for the process of knowledge to confront its object in the integrity of its concrete determination, it is necessary to start from the simplest form of the object in question, and to reproduce it with thought by virtually accompanying it in the unfolding of its determinations, however that these appear to be the opposite of that simpler content of theirs. Such is the course that this research follows in order to answer about the specific national form with which Argentine society acts as a subject in the process of development of the productive forces of work. This research does not consist of the historical unfolding of the course followed by Argentine society throughout the period considered, as a process whose unity is given simply by dealing with the same national scope. On the contrary, its course has as its axis the evidence of the features that this historical development presents as expressions of the existence of a specific determination of the form that the Argentine national process of capital accumulation takes

    Keywords: History of the Americas ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: Amazonian Cosmopolitans focuses on the autobiographical accounts of two Brazilian Indigenous leaders, Prepori and Sabino, Kawaiwete men whose lives spanned the twentieth century, when Amazonia increasingly became the context of large-scale state projects. Both give accounts of how they worked in a range of interethnic enterprises from the 1920s to the 1960s in central Brazil. Prepori, a shaman, also gives an account of his relations with spirit beings that populate the Kawaiwete cosmos as he participated in these projects. Like other Indigenous Amazonians, Kawaiwete value engagement with outsiders, particularly for leaders and shamanic healers. These social engagements encourage a careful watching and learning of others’ habits, customs, and sometimes languages, what could be called a kind of cosmopolitanism or an attitude of openness, leading to an expansion of the boundaries of community. The historical consciousness presented by these narrators centers on how transformations in social relations were experienced in bodily terms—how their bodies changed as new relationships formed. Amazonian Cosmopolitans offers Indigenous perspectives on twentieth-century Brazilian history as well as a way to reimagine lowland peoples as living within vast networks, bridging wide social and cosmological divides

    Keywords: States United Democracy Center (Organization) ; Elections ; Democracy ; Elections & referenda ; Politics & government ; History of the Americas
    Abstract: The Laurence and Lynne Brown Democracy Medal, presented by the McCourtney Institute for Democracy at Penn State, recognizes outstanding individuals, groups, and organizations that produce innovations to further democracy in the United States or around the world. Elections are the bedrock of any democracy, but they are under attack in the United States. State legislatures are moving to limit voting rights and seize control of election administration, candidates are refusing to accept election results, and antidemocracy forces are sowing lies and encouraging political violence. The States United Democracy Center is fighting back by equipping state and local officials, law enforcement leaders, and prodemocracy partners with the tools and resources they need to protect free, fair, and secure elections. For this important work, its cofounders are the recipients of the 2022 Brown Democracy Medal. States United was founded during the 2020 election and continues to be led by Joanna Lydgate, former chief deputy attorney general of Massachusetts; Norman Eisen, former ambassador to the Czech Republic and special assistant to President Barack Obama for ethics and government reform; and Christine Todd Whitman, former New Jersey governor and Environmental Protection Agency administrator
    Abstract: "Elections are the bedrock of any democracy. They rely on nonpartisan officials to administer them, voters to cast votes and candidates to accept the results, all in accordance with the law. According to some political experts, these democratic norms are under attack in states across the country as several legislatures seek to add barriers to voting rights, interfere with election administration, oust nonpartisan election officials, and refuse to accept the 2020 election results. The States United Democracy Center is pushing back by empowering state and local officials, law enforcement leaders, and prodemocracy partners by connecting them with tools and expertise they may need to administer free, fair and secure elections"--

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: The eighteen volumes of Detailed Reports on the Salzburger Emigrants Who Settled in America (reproduced in sixteen discrete books) contain the diaries and letters of Lutheran pastors who ministered to the Salzburgers, German-speaking Protestant refugees, in Georgia. Samuel Urlsperger collected and edited these writings into the Urlsperger Reports printed at Orphanage Press, Halle, Germany, from 1735 to 1760. The original German publication, Ausführliche Nachricht von den saltzburgischen Emigranten, is available through the Internet Archive, but this English-language translation has not been available online until now.In the mid-eighteenth century, Samuel Urlsperger of the Lutheran Ministry in Augsburg edited the German edition of the Detailed Reports after having distributed the many reports to the faithful in Germany. He made major deletions for both diplomatic and economic reasons and suppressed proper names. His son, Johann August Urlsperger, succeeded him. He took even greater liberties with the text, deleting large sections and rearranging others. The English version, translated and edited by George Fenwick Jones, a German scholar, restores the deleted sections and the proper names and provides the original sequencing of the material.The Detailed Reports offer insight into daily life in colonial Georgia and provide precious details and vignettes on subjects that receive less attention in other sources, notably African Americans, women, silk production, and the cost of goods in a frontier colony. The Reports are an underutilized resource for the study of this period and an unparalleled source for the evolution of a rural community during the early years of the colony.The Georgia Open History Library has been made possible in part by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities: Democracy demands wisdom. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in this collection, do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities

    Abstract: Border of Lights, a volunteer collective, returns each October to Dominican-Haitian border towns to bear witness to the 1937 Haitian Massacre ordered by Dominican dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo. This crime against humanity has never been acknowledged by the Dominican government and no memorial exists for its victims. A multimodal, multi-vocal space for activists, artists, scholars, and others connected to the BOL movement, The Border of Lights Reader provides an alternative to the dominant narrative that positions Dominicans and Haitians as eternal adversaries and ignores cross-border and collaborative histories. This innovative anthology asks large-scale, universal questions regarding historical memory and revisionism that countries around the world grapple with today

En efecto, mucho se ha escrito sobre el Tratado de 1904, tanto en Chile como en Bolivia, de ahí que ya vemos una sérié de estudios recientes que han ido aclarando ese proceso. El présente libro, por eso mismo, no trata del acuerdo en sí, sino de su relevancia como hito de un cambio decisivo en la trayectoria de Chile como vence- dor de la Guerra del Pacífico, hasta 1929

    Abstract: En 1821, au lendemain de la proclamation d'Indépendance du Pérou, San Martín déclarait que ceux que l'on appelait « Indiens » à l'époque coloniale espagnole ne devaient plus être désignés que comme « Péruviens » car ils devenaient citoyens au même titre que les Blancs et les métis. Quelques décennies plus tard, la guerre du Pacifique (1879-1883), véritable désastre pour le Pérou, fut cependant interprétée comme la preuve de l'échec de l'intégration nationale, générant de nouveaux débats sur la place des Indiens dans la société péruvienne. Cet ouvrage analyse la façon dont furent perçues les populations autochtones andines par les élites créoles entre 1821 et 1879, période charnière, et pourtant peu connue, entre la pensée coloniale et les courants indigénistes de la fin du xixe et du début du xxe siècle. Il propose une histoire culturelle des représentations à partir de la législation, des discours politiques, de la presse, de divers essais, d'œuvres littéraires et de l'iconographie. Ces sources révèlent toute l'ambiguïté de ces discours et visent à mieux comprendre les fondements de la nation péruvienne encore aujourd'hui

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: From the earliest days of their empire in the New World, the Spanish sought to gain control of the native peoples and lands of what is now Sonora. While missionaries were successful in pacifying many Indians, the Seris-independent groups of hunter-gatherers who lived on the desert shores and islands of the Gulf of California-steadfastly defied Spanish efforts to subjugate them. Empire of Sand is a documentary history of Spanish attempts to convert, control, and ultimately annihilate the Seris. These papers of religious, military, and government officials attest to the Seris' resilience in the face of numerous Spanish attempts to conquer them and remove them from their lands. The documents include early observations of the Seris by Jesuit missionaries, descriptions of the collapse of the Seri mission system in 1748, accounts of the invasion of Tiburón Island in 1750 and the Sonora Expedition of 1767-71, and reports of late eighteenth-century Seri hostilities. Thomas E. Sheridan's introduction puts the documents in perspective, while his notes objectively clarify their significance. By skillfully weaving the documents into a coherent narrative of Spanish-Seri interaction, he has produced a compelling account of empire and resistance that speaks to anthropologists, historians, and all readers who take heart in stories of resistance to oppression

    Series Statement: Energy Histories, Cultures, and Politics
    Keywords: History of the Americas ; Microeconomics
    Abstract: Understanding the history of energy and the evolving place of energy in society is essential to facing the changing future of energy production. Across North and South America, national and localized understandings of energy as a common, public, or market good have influenced the development of energy industries. Energy in the Americas brings the diverse energy histories of North and South American nations into dialogue with one another, presenting an integrated hemispheric framework for understanding the historical constructions of contemporary debates on the role of energy in society. Rejecting pat truisms, this collection historicizes the experiences of producers and policymakers and assesses the interplay between environmental, technological, political, and ideological influences within and between countries and continents. Breaking down assumptions about the evolution of national energy histories, Energy in the Americas broadens and opens the conversation. De-emphasizing the traditional focus on national peculiarities, it favours an international, integrated approach that brings together the work of established and emerging scholars. This is an essential step in understanding the circumstances that have created current energy policy and practice, and the historical narratives that underpin how energy production is conceptualized and understood

    Keywords: History of the Americas
    Abstract: In The Currency of Empire, Jonathan Barth explores the intersection of money and power in the early years of North American history, and he shows how the control of money informed English imperial action overseas.The export-oriented mercantile economy promoted by the English Crown, Barth argues, directed the plan for colonization, the regulation of colonial commerce, and the politics of empire. The imperial project required an orderly flow of gold and silver, and thus England's colonial regime required stringent monetary regulation. As Barth shows, money was also a flash point for resistance; many colonists acutely resented their subordinate economic station, desiring for their local economies a robust, secure, and uniform money supply. This placed them immediately at odds with the mercantilist laws of the empire and precipitated an imperial crisis in the 1670s, a full century before the Declaration of Independence.The Currency of Empire examines what were a series of explosive political conflicts in the seventeenth century and demonstrates how the struggle over monetary policy prefigured the patriot reaction to the Stamp Act and so-called Intolerable Acts on the eve of American independence.Thanks to generous funding from the Arizona State University and George Mason University, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access (OA) volumes from Cornell Open (cornellopen.org) and other Open Access repositories

    Abstract: In the past two decades, a discourse of crisis has emerged about the democratic institutions and political culture of the US: many structures of authority which people had more or less taken for granted are facing a massive public loss of trust. This volume takes an interdisciplinary and historical look at the transformations of authority and trust in the United States. The contributors examine government institutions, political parties, urban neighborhoods, scientific experts, international leadership, religious communities, and literary production. Exploring the nexus between authority and trust is crucial to understand the loss of legitimacy experienced by political, social, and cultural institutions not only in the United States but in Western democracies at large

    Abstract: Quels parcours de vie mènent à se retrouver, au grand âge, entouré d'amour et de sollicitude, ou isolé et esseulé ? Comment faire face, en vieillissant, à cette question angoissante : « Qui prendra soin de moi ? » Cette enquête ethnographique décrit la vie quotidienne des vieux Cubains, qui sont nés avant 1959 et atteignent aujourd'hui leur quatrième âge, dans un contexte de crise économique et d'incertitude politique, où les cadres d'existence qu'ils ont connus et contribué à construire sont bouleversés. Dans un style narratif et vivant, Blandine Destremau montre comment les hommes et les femmes de cette génération vivent et aménagent leur vieillissement, alors que les solidarités familiales ont été affectées par les migrations, la chute de la fécondité et la renaissance d'une culture entrepreneuriale. Comment les politiques publiques, très performantes dans le domaine sanitaire, prennent-elles la mesure des besoins de care et y répondent-elles ? L'auteure propose en fin d'ouvrage une sociologie du vieillissement à Cuba

    Abstract: Dix ans après le viol et l'assassinat de Cassandre Bouvier et Houria Moumni en Argentine, le travail de recherche auquel Cassandre s'était longuement consacrée et qui était sur le point d'être achevé au moment de sa disparition est enfin publié aux Éditions de l'IHEAL. Ce livre est d'abord un hommage rendu par l'ensemble de notre communauté universitaire à l'une des siennes, un ouvrage dont la production fut ponctuée d'interrogations, de doutes et de tentatives avortées tant chaque relecture rendait plus cruelle encore l'absence de son auteure. Mais il s'agit aussi d'une recherche au sens propre du terme. Cassandre travaillait sur la réception de la révolution sandiniste de 1979 dans la presse espagnole, sur les échos que les événements nicaraguayens ont renvoyés dans une Espagne en pleine transition démocratique, encore meurtrie par le souvenir de la guerre civile de 1936-1939 et des années du franquisme. Histoire politique, histoire des représentations, histoire des relations internationales et des circulations transatlantiques : autant de perspectives chères au corps enseignant de l'IHEAL dans lesquelles Cassandre s'était plongée à bras-le-corps et qui alimentent le fil de ces pages. S'il est resté inachevé, ce mémoire n'en est pas moins le témoin de la vivacité d'esprit et de la maturité intellectuelle d'une des étudiantes les plus prometteuses de sa promotion, ainsi que des doutes inhérents à la recherche en train de se faire

    Abstract: From the late fifteenth century to the present day, countless explorers, conquerors, and other agents of empire have laid siege to the New World, plundering and pilfering its most precious artefacts and treasures. Today, these natural and cultural products—which are key to conceptualizing a history of Latin America—are scattered in museums around the world. With contributions from a renowned set of scholars, New World Objects of Knowledge delves into the hidden histories of forty of the New World’s most iconic artifacts, from the Inca mummy to Darwin’s hummingbirds. This volume is richly illustrated with photos and sketches from the archives and museums hosting these objects. Each artifact is accompanied by a comprehensive essay covering its dynamic, often global, history and itinerary. This volume will be an indispensable catalog of New World objects and how they have helped shape our modern world

    Abstract: Considered by historian Herbert E. Bolton to be one of the greatest books ever written in the West, Andrés Pérez de Ribas's history of the Jesuit missions provides unusual insight into Spanish and Indian relations during the colonial period in Northern New Spain. First published in Madrid in 1645, it traces the history of the missions from 1591 to 1643 and includes letters from Jesuit annual reports and other correspondence, much of which has never been found or cataloged in historical archives. Daniel T. Reff, Maureen Ahern, and Richard K. Danford have now prepared the first complete, scholarly, and fully annotated edition of this important work in English. Pérez de Ribas was the first permanent missionary to the Ahome, Zuaque, and Yaqui Indians. After fifteen years on the mission frontier he was recalled to Mexico City, where he held various posts, including Jesuit Provincial. Addressed to novitiates ignorant of the challenges they would face in the field, his Historia was a virtual textbook on missionary work in the New World. Also written to encourage ongoing support of the Jesuit missions, it reflected the author's deep grasp of what rhetorically soothed and moved Church and Crown officials. Perhaps of greatest interest to the modern reader are Pérez de Ribas's often detailed comments on indigenous beliefs and practices. These firsthand observations provide a rich resource of ethnographic and historical data concerning everything from native subsistence, settlement patterns, and myths to the dynamics of Jesuit-Indian relations. The many cases of conversion that Pérez de Ribas describes are especially rich in ethnographic data, clarifying the values and beliefs from which the Indians were "rescued." History of the Triumphs is a primary document of great importance, made more valuable here by an exceptionally fluid translation and painstaking annotations. It will be a standard reference for all engaged in research on New Spain and a captivating read for anyone interested in this chapter of American history

    Abstract: Plantear o acusar que cierto pensamiento latinoamericano puede ser eurocentrista, implica asumir que las ideas tienen un origen, una nacionalidad y que, además, puede no corresponder con la identidad y el territorio de quienes las piensan: latinoamericanos pensando con ideas europeas. Esta distinción epistemológica entre la identidad de las ideas y la de las personas que las piensan nos es útil para introducir los escritos de este libro: autoras y autores que, pese a estar en Dinamarca, piensan de "forma latinoamericana sobre Latinoamérica". Como en el reflejo de un espejo, estas autoras y autores están situados en Europa, pero piensan en y con América Latina, un "pensamiento en diálogo con Latinoamérica. Los textos aquí reunidos no sólo desbordan estas categorías entre pensamiento puramente eurocéntrico o latinoamericano, también rebasan los límites impuestos por las disciplinas académicas las humanidades y las ciencias sociales

    Abstract: Exploring "refuge" and "refugee" as concepts that shape Canadian nation-building both within and beyond national borders, Refugee States takes an interdisciplinary and critical approach to describing how refugees articulate their relation to and defiance of official discourses. Through close examinations of refugee movements, contexts, and subjectivities, this collection reveals how Canada has relied upon the rejection and inclusion of refugees as a crucial means of statecraft. Bringing together renowned and emerging scholars from multiple disciplines, Nguyen and Phu illuminate the historical, political, and cultural conditions that produce refugees as well as the narrative of humanitarian benevolence that persists nationally and internationally. Highlighting landmark cases, the editors and contributors together develop critical refugee studies as a framework for understanding, nuancing, and critiquing the production of Canadian humanitarian exceptionalism - the international image and discourse of Canada as a liberal, tolerant, and welcoming haven for people fleeing oppression, persecution, and unfreedom. In doing so, Refugee States offers alternative modes of understanding past and present refugee passages to and within Canada, and brings to light the many ways in which refugee subjects navigate displacement, migration, and resettlement

    Abstract: What distinguishes humans from nonhumans? Two common answers—free will and religion—are in some ways fundamentally opposed. Whereas free will enjoys a central place in our ideas of spontaneity, authorship, and deliberation, religious practices seem to involve a suspension of or relief from the exercise of our will. What, then, is agency, and why has it occupied such a central place in theories of the human? Automatic Religion explores an unlikely series of episodes from the end of the nineteenth century, when crucial ideas related to automatism and, in a different realm, the study of religion were both being born. Paul Christopher Johnson draws on years of archival and ethnographic research in Brazil and France to explore the crucial boundaries being drawn at the time between humans, “nearhumans,” and automata. As agency came to take on a more central place in the philosophical, moral, and legal traditions of the West, certain classes of people were excluded as less-than-human. Tracking the circulation of ideas across the Atlantic, Johnson tests those boundaries, revealing how they were constructed on largely gendered and racial foundations. In the process, he reanimates one of the most mysterious and yet foundational questions in trans-Atlantic thought: what is agency?

    Abstract: The personal diary that Modesto de la Torre wrote between 1821 and 1822 reflects the perceptions of a young royalist military man about a New Spain that was gaining independence from the Peninsula to become a Mexican Empire. The author traveled from Cadiz to Mexico City with the retinue that accompanied the last viceroy, Juan O'Donojú, and in his pages he describes the nature, towns and cities he passed through, as well as the political and military events that took place during those years. Anecdotes, both major and minor, are found in these brief chronicles. In addition, the dialogue with himself, through writing, is a means to exorcise the crisis of the culture of masculinity that was part of his imaginary. This crisis was largely caused by the nationalist discourse of the Mexicans and their military victories, which became the central theme of his reflections and is extensively analyzed in the study that precedes the transcription of the diary. The spontaneous and secret character of the Apuntaciones makes them a singular source for historians of the early 19th century, of nationalism, and of the little-known first-person writings in the Latin American world of the time

    Abstract: F. López de Gómara's Historia de las Indias is the only chronicle of the Indies in the sixteenth century to offer a complete overview of the process of discovery and conquest, even though the author had never been to the Indies. The intelligence and elegance of Gómara's style explain the remarkable success of the work both in Spain and in Europe, in spite of a diffusion disrupted by the prohibition decrees from 1553. Of the two parts that compose it, it is the first, critically edited here, that has had the greatest influence on the history of ideas

    Abstract: La Amazonía es sujeto y objeto de múltiples y variados debates que tansitan desde su diversidad biológica y cultural, pasando por su papel para contrarrestar el efecto invernadero, hasta su potencial económico y la sostenibilidad de sus recursos naturales. Sin duda, la discución está aquí para quedarse y tiene que ser enriquecida con conocimiento cierto y pertinente a su(s) realidad(es). Es con este espíritu que el Centro de Estudios para el Desarrollo Laboral y Agrario (CEDLA) y el Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (CLACSO), con el apoyo de la Embajada de Suecia en Bolivia, promovieron el concurso de investigación "Expansión mercantil capitalista y la Amazonía como nueva frontera de recursos en el siglo XXI". El propósito de esta convocatoria fue profundizar el conocimiento sobre las causas de las transformaciones socioeconómicas y espaciales que ocurren actualmente en la Amazonía
