Entre fines del siglo XIX y las primeras décadas del XX, en medio del vertiginoso proceso de modernización que atraviesan las principales ciudades de Sudamérica, los archivos policiales de Buenos Aires y Río de Janeiro empiezan a registrar, con alarma, la amenaza de los "delincuentes viajeros", un tipo de personaje especialmente difícil de detectar, veloz y con apariencia de gentleman, capaz de concretar con éxito robos y estafas sin ejercer violencia. ¿Quiénes eran estos ladrones de guante blanco? ¿Existieron más allá de las fantasías y las coartadas policiales? En una pesquisa tan rigurosa como apasionante en sí misma, Diego Galeano persigue esas biografías escurridizas, esas historias de individuos o de bandas que circulaban por el espacio atlántico con nombres falsos, documentos fraguados, ganzúas, llaves, navajas, valijas elegantes. Revisando documentación policial –telegramas, retratos, álbumes fotográficos, fichas antropométricas y dactiloscópicas–, rastros que atestiguan los pactos de cooperación y las redes de vigilancia transnacional, el autor reconstruye el modus operandi de los "ratones de hotel", los cuenteros del tío y los punguistas, verdaderos profesionales que operaban en los hoteles de lujo o se movían al amparo del anonimato en ciudades cada vez más populosas. Y revela también los esfuerzos de las policías que, recurriendo a las modernas técnicas de identificación y al canje de antecedentes e información, buscaban combatir a los malhechores con la menor burocracia posible. Contribución valiosa a la historia social de las prácticas delictivas y de la policía, este libro narra las deliciosas picardías de un puñado de ladrones viajeros, en una época de fronteras porosas y un intenso flujo de personas, papeles e ideas, a la vez que aporta una pieza nueva y necesaria a una genealogía de los mecanismos de control transnacional.

El turismo se viene estudiando con asiduidad desde fines del siglo XIX, cuando ya lo practicaban las clases medias urbanas. Los primeros estudiosos, los hoteleros, adoptaron el concepto de turista que décadas antes habían encontrado los hablantes y crearon el derivado turismo. Cuando, ya en el siglo XX, se ocuparon los profesores universitarios de esta parcela de la realidad social, no averiguaron antes si la noción vulgar permitía fundar sobre ella un corpus teórico sólido. Para ellos, para la gente y para los hoteleros, turismo es lo que hacen los turistas (consumidores) y lo que hacen los hoteleros (productores). Como el mismo término designa lo mismo la demanda que la oferta, se crea una grave confusión en el análisis. Si se añade que aún no se ha encontrado una definición satisfactoria de turista, no es extraño que se diga que el estudio del turismo es enigmático y bizarro, una compleja realidad que ninguna ciencia social puede desentrañar por sí sola. El Turismo explicado con claridad demuestra que si de lo que se trata es de conocer el turismo para invertir en negocios, hay que estudiarlo, entonces, como la microeconomía se acerca al estudio de cualquier actividad productiva. La obra formula un modelo alternativo, económico o de oferta, al modelo convencional, sociológico o de demanda, y termina con una recapitulación en la que se analizan mitos o lugares comunes del turismo tales como que el turismo es "tan antiguo como la humanidad" o que es "la primera industria mundial".

This volume explores several notable themes related to foreign affairs in Latin America and the reconfiguration of the power of the different states in the region. It offers insightful historical perspectives for understanding national, regional and global issues from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day, from analysis of the traditional "hegemony" of the United States over Latin America through its military, and political influence due to the presence of the European Union, Russia, and China. These views cannot be reduced to a simplistic vision of the dominant and subordinate; rather, they attempt to seek lines of continuity by highlighting traditional interpretations of new scenarios such as regional trading and security blocs. The volume refuses to impose a traditional and uncritical linear historical narrative onto the reader but instead proposes an alternative interpretation of the past and its relation to the present. Finally, the growing importance of international mechanisms in enabling the success of certain Latin American regimes is also highlighted, in particular the influence of regional diffusion through international organizations or other networks.

This volume explores several notable themes related to social, political, and religious movements in Latin America and offers insightful historical perspectives to understand national, regional, and global issues from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day. This volume’s collected chapters focus on the Latin American society and are divided into three sections. The first section, Social, presents some cultural, demographic, and urban changes that have occurred with increasing frequency in Latin America from the early twentieth century onward. The second section, Political, shows migratory, political, and identity movements that in recent decades have re-emerged with force. Finally, the third section, Religious, analyzes various Latin American religious visions with their particular characteristics. From the religious hegemony of Catholicism, a change in the religious panorama in the last decades can be seen intermingled with politics, history, and society.

"The book is a collection of essays looking at histories of crime and justice in Latin America, with a focus on social history and the interactions between state institutions, the press, and social groups. It argues that crime in Latin America is best understood from the "bottom up" -- not just as the exercise of power from the state. The book seeks to document and illustrate the "every day" experiences of crime in particular settings, emphasizing under-researched historical actors such as criminals, victims, and police officers"--Provided by publisher.

On the Other Shore explores the social history of Italian communities in South America and the transnational networks in which they were situated during and after World War I. From 1915 to 1921 Italy’s conflict against Austria-Hungary and its aftermath shook Italian immigrants and their children in the metropolitan areas of Buenos Aires, Montevideo, and São Paulo. The war led portions of these communities to mobilize resources—patriotic support, young men who could enlist in the Italian army, goods like wool from Argentina and limes from Brazil, and lots of money—to support Italy in the face of “total war.” Yet other portions of these communities simultaneously organized a strident movement against the war, inspired especially by anarchism and revolutionary socialism. Both of these factions sought to extend their influence and ambitions into the immediate postwar period. On the Other Shore demonstrates patterns of social cohesion and division within the Italian communities of South America; reconstructs varying transatlantic and inter-American networks of interaction, exchange, and mobility in an “Italian Atlantic”; interrogates how authorities in Italy viewed their South American “colonies”; and uncovers ways that Italians in Latin America balanced and blended relationships and loyalties to their countries of residence and origin. On the Other Shore’s position at the intersection of Latin American history, Atlantic history, and the histories of World War I and Italian immigration thereby engages with and informs each of these subject areas in distinctive ways.

Today, there is plenty of evidence that Russia has become a prominent external actor in Latin America and the Caribbean. Yet, few books have attempted to better understand the reasons behind Russia ́s return and Moscow’s continuous engagement in the region. In order to fill the gap, this volume offers the first interdisciplinary study of Russian-Latin American relations after the end of the Cold War. Across 16 chapters, leading experts from Russia, Europe, the United States, and Latin America collectively re-examine the Soviet legacy to reveal the conditions in which Russia operates today and identify the key trends of contemporary Russian relations with this part of the world. The book then moves on to provide a detailed case study analysis of Russia’s bilateral relations with Venezuela, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia, identifying the most critical dimensions of Russian engagement. Rethinking Post Cold-War Russian-Latin American Relations allows readers to identify the fundamental driving forces of Russia’s renewed commitment to the area, its strategies and experiences. The book will be of interest to readers of international relations and area studies, historians of modern Latin America, migration studies, political economy, and any political scientists interested in Russian decision-making.
