Para sus seguidores y el sistema político, Vicente Lombardo Toledano es un héroe... Pero la realidad es más compleja. Fundador de numerosos sindicatos en México y en América Latina, Lombardo Toledano no sólo fue un organizador sino un negociador que destrababa conflictos imposibles. Fue un creyente en el orden, decidido a mantener la estabilidad del país y de la región a toda costa. Un operador del gobierno mexicano y, cuando lo creía oportuno, de las naciones vecinas y de la Unión Soviética. Un hombre identificado como comunista que, sin embargo, jamás perteneció a ese partido, y que fue vinculado con el PRI, del que no era miembro sino comparsa. Con una vida apasionante, fundó trascendentales instituciones como la CTM y la Confederación de Trabajadores de América Latina, que construyó como organizaciones sindicales así como mecanismos de negociación, cuando sus normas le estorbaban. En una biografía rigurosa y fluida, Daniela Spenser relata la vida de Lombardo Toledano, un hombre que refleja la complejidad del México posrevolucionario, tanto la esperanza que despertó como los proyectos fallidos que dejó.

In The Last Good Neighbor Eric Zolov presents a revisionist account of Mexican domestic politics and international relations during the long 1960s, tracing how Mexico emerged from the shadow of FDR's Good Neighbor policy to become a geopolitical player in its own right during the Cold War. Zolov shows how President Adolfo López Mateos (1958–1964) leveraged Mexico's historical ties with the United States while harnessing the left's passionate calls for solidarity with developing nations in a bold attempt to alter the course of global politics. During this period, Mexico forged relationships with the Soviet Bloc, took positions at odds with US interests, and entered the scene of Third World internationalism. Drawing on archival research from Mexico, the United States, and Britain, Zolov gives a broad perspective on the multitudinous, transnational forces that shaped Mexican political culture in ways that challenge standard histories of the period.

Mexico’s Spiritual Reconquest brings to life a classically misunderstood pícaro: liberal soldier turned Catholic priest and revolutionary antipope, “Patriarch” Joaquín Pérez. Historian Matthew Butler weaves Pérez’s controversial life story into a larger narrative about the relationship between religion, the state, and indigeneity in twentieth-century Mexico. Mexico’s Spiritual Reconquest is at once the history of an indigenous reformation and a deeply researched, beautifully written exploration of what can happen when revolutions try to assimilate powerful religious institutions and groups. The book challenges historians to reshape baseline assumptions about modern Mexico in order to see a revolutionary state that was deeply vested in religion and a Cristero War that was, in reality, a culture clash between Catholics.

Itineraries of Expertise contends that experts and expertise played fundamental roles in the Latin American Cold War. While traditional Cold War histories of the region have examined diplomatic, intelligence, and military operations and more recent studies have probed the cultural dimensions of the conflict, the experts who constitute the focus of this volume escaped these categories. Although they often portrayed themselves as removed from politics, their work contributed to the key geopolitical agendas of the day. The paths traveled by the experts in this volume not only traversed Latin America and connected Latin America to the Global North, they also stretch traditional chronologies of the Latin American Cold War to show how local experts in the early twentieth century laid the foundation for post–World War II development projects, and how Cold War knowledge of science, technology, and the environment continues to impact our world today. These essays unite environmental history and the history of science and technology to argue for the importance of expertise in the Latin American Cold War.

During the 1930s, thousands of social scientists fled the Nazi regime or other totalitarian European regimes, mainly towards the Americas. The New School for Social Research (NSSR) in New York City and El Colegio de México (Colmex) in Mexico City both were built based on receiving exiled academics from Europe. Comparing the first twenty years of these organizations, this book offers a deeper understanding of the corresponding institutional contexts and impacts of emigrated, exiled and refugeed academics. It analyses the ambiguities of scientists’ situations between emigration, return‐migration and transnational life projects and examines the corresponding dynamics of application, adaptation or amalgamation of (travelling) theories and methods these academics brought. Despite its institutional focus, it also deals with the broader context of forced migration of intellectuals and scientists in the second half of the last century in Europe and Latin America. In so doing, the book invites a deeper understanding of the challenges of forced migration for scholars in the 21st century.

During the Second World War, the United States built over two hundred defense installations on sovereign soil in Latin America in the name of cooperation in hemisphere defense. Predictably, it proved to be a fraught affair. Despite widespread acclaim for Pan-American unity with the Allied cause, defense construction incited local conflicts that belied the wartime rhetoric of fraternity and equality. Cooperating with the Colossus reconstructs the history of US basing in World War II Latin America, from the elegant chambers of the American foreign ministries to the cantinas, courtrooms, plazas, and brothels surrounding US defense sites. Foregrounding the wartime experiences of Brazil, Cuba, and Panama, the book considers how Latin American leaders and diplomats used basing rights as bargaining chips to advance their nation-building agendas with US resources, while limiting overreach by the "Colossus of the North" as best they could. Yet conflicts on the ground over labor rights, discrimination, sex, and criminal jurisdiction routinely threatened the peace. Steeped in conflict, the story of wartime basing certainly departs from the celebratory triumphalism commonly associated with this period in US-Latin American relations, but this book does not wholly upend the conventional account of wartime cooperation. Rather, the history of basing distills a central tension that has infused regional affairs since a wave of independence movements first transformed the Americas into a society of nations: national sovereignty and international cooperation may seem like harmonious concepts in principle, but they are difficult to reconcile in practice. Drawing on archival research in five countries, Cooperating with the Colossus is a revealing history told at the local, national, and international levels of how World War II transformed power and politics in the Americas in enduring ways.

En este libro, Soledad Loaeza propone mirar el desarrollo del presidencialismo autoritario mexicano, de 1945 a 1958, desde una perspectiva que privilegia la influencia del factor externo en este proceso. Su interpretación es novedosa porque se aparta de la visión del desarrollo institucional como un fenómeno puramente interno y lo sitúa en el contexto de la Guerra Fría que, en la temprana posguerra, condicionó la reconstrucción de los sistemas políticos de todo el mundo. La autora se plantea dos grandes preguntas: ¿Cómo respondió México al orden internacional de la Guerra Fría, en particular a la transformación de Estados Unidos en una superpotencia?, y ¿Cuál fue el impacto del contexto internacional sobre la evolución del presidencialismo mexicano? A partir del presupuesto de que el poder político se define tanto por sus límites como por sus alcances y de una extensa investigación documental, la autora examina las estrategias de respuesta de tres presidentes al mundo bipolar: Manuel Ávila Camacho, Miguel Alemán Valdés y Adolfo Ruiz Cortines, en tres dimensiones de su responsabilidad, así como la relación geoestratégica con Estados Unidos, la organización de la participación política y la estabilidad de la coalición revolucionaria.
