El novembre de 1936, davant el setge de la ciutat de Madrid pels rebels, el govern de la Segona República decideix traslladar-se a València, ciutat de rereguarda des de la qual projecta organitzar la resistència inicial i l’ofensiva final que acabe amb la insurrecció. Aquest catàleg, editat amb motiu de l’exposició del mateix títol, realitza un acurat estudi en què s’analitza el període d’onze mesos durant els quals València –llavors una ciutat de només 375.000 habitants– va ser el centre de decisió política del govern republicà, i el punt de trobada i acollida de les poblacions desplaçades, xiquets evacuats, periodistes, escriptors i intel·lectuals a la recerca de refugi i d’una realitat històrica que s’escenificava a Espanya.

En las sociedades contemporáneas se afirma cada vez más una tendencia preocupante: frente a dramas o problemas de distinta magnitud –de la delincuencia a las protestas callejeras, del terrorismo o el tráfico de drogas al fracaso escolar o la mala conducta–, la mayoría de los dirigentes políticos, los periodistas y los editorialistas de los grandes medios recurren a discursos y promesas de mano dura, de castigo y represión: la responsabilidad le cabe exclusivamente al individuo que quebrantó el orden y que, desde esa perspectiva, merece una condena rápida. Pero no sólo eso: desautorizan, banalizan o acallan las voces de quienes, en lugar de juzgar, proponen comprender y analizar por qué pasó lo que pasó, no para disculpar o excusar, sino para llegar a la raíz del problema y evitar que vuelva a suceder. En este libro, pensado y escrito con ánimo de intervenir fuertemente en el debate público, Bernard Lahire reivindica el rol de los sociólogos, politólogos, antropólogos y demás científicos sociales, porque son ellos los que aportan explicaciones que surgen de la observación y el estudio serio, los que desbaratan el mito de que vivimos en un mundo de individuos aislados que deciden sin condicionamientos sobre todos los aspectos de su vida y que, por eso, son los únicos responsables de sus propios éxitos y fracasos. Contra este culto liviano del libre albedrío y la libertad personal –coartadas para legitimar la dominación–, Lahire defiende el trabajo de las ciencias sociales, que historizan y reponen contexto, y que descubren tramas multicausales allí donde políticos y periodistas simplifican, señalando con el dedo a un solo culpable. Con estilo franco y polémico, sostenido en convicciones siempre razonadas y en ejemplos reveladores, Lahire entrega un ensayo fundamental para pensar el rol transformador de las ciencias sociales en una democracia.

La crisis de la Historia social y de las bases teóricas que en ella subyacían, sobre todo el marxismo y una serie de supuestos (totalización, determinación social, progreso y continuidad histórica, etc.) mayoritariamente admitidos hasta entonces, abrió paso, en las décadas finales del siglo xx, a la emergencia del pensamiento de la posmodernidad, concebida por algunos como una nueva etapa histórica o una nueva lógica cultural envolvente. El libro describe los efectos de esta crisis, adentrándose en sus premisas intelectuales, pero a la vez constatando sus raíces político-ideológicas, y define y delimita el heterogéneo campo del denominado “posmodernismo”, identificando sus principales referentes filosóficos (Nietzsche, Heidegger) y analizando pormenorizadamente los principales desarrollos y la obra de los autores fundamentales de esta corriente intelectual (Lyotard, Vattimo, Barthes, Derrida, Foucault, Deleuze y otros), además de subrayar sus efectos en la concepción de la Historia (White), la Politología (Laclau-Mouffe) y las ciencias sociales en general. Además, analiza las consecuencias de esta nueva corriente de pensamiento en la práctica historiográfica, impregnando en general las nuevas formas de hacer Historia e influyendo, más en particular, en algunas de sus manifestaciones específicas: la nueva Historia cultural, los estudios de género, los cultural studies, los estudios poscoloniales y otros. Finalmente se centra en plantear algunas propuestas tendentes a sustentar un proyecto renovado de Historia materialista / marxista para el siglo XXI. Para ello, se realiza un repaso, abierto y crítico, a los problemas de la totalización histórica, la causalidad y la determinación, los sujetos históricos, el papel de las “superestructuras” política e ideológica o la función social de la disciplina, con el fin de defender las posibilidades y opciones de una Historia racionalista, materialista y crítica para el siglo XXI, tal como se argumenta desde la misma Introducción.

Exile and migration played a critical role in the diffusion and development of modernism around the globe, yet have long remained largely understudied phenomena within art historiography. Focusing on the intersections of exile, artistic practice and urban space, this volume brings together contributions by international researchers committed to revising the historiography of modern art. It pays particular attention to metropolitan areas that were settled by migrant artists in the first half of the 20th century. These arrival cities developed into hubs of artistic activities and transcultural contact zones where ideas circulated, collaborations emerged, and concepts developed. Taking six major cities as a starting point – Bombay (now Mumbai), Buenos Aires, Istanbul, London, New York, and Shanghai –the authors explore how urban topographies and landscapes were modified by exiled artists re-establishing their practices in metropolises across the world. Questioning the established canon of Western modernism, Arrival Cities investigates how the migration of artists to different urban spaces impacted their work and the historiography of art. In doing so, it aims to encourage the discussion between international scholars from different research fields, such as exile studies, art history, social history, architectural history, architecture, and urban studies.

Sovereignty And Revolution In The Iberian Atlantic written by Jeremy Adelman and has been published by Princeton University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-06-08 with History categories.
This book takes a bold new look at both Spain's and Portugal's New World empires in a trans-Atlantic context. It argues that modern notions of sovereignty in the Atlantic world have been unstable, contested, and equivocal from the start. It shows how much contemporary notions of sovereignty emerged in the Americas as a response to European imperial crises in the age of revolutions. Jeremy Adelman reveals how many modern-day uncertainties about property, citizenship, and human rights were forged in an epic contest over the very nature of state power in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Sovereignty and Revolution in the Iberian Atlantic offers a new understanding of Latin American and Atlantic history, one that blurs traditional distinctions between the "imperial" and the "colonial." It shows how the Spanish and Portuguese empires responded to the pressures of rival states and merchant capitalism in the eighteenth century. As empires adapted, the ties between colonies and mother countries transformed, recreating trans-Atlantic bonds of loyalty and interests. In the end, colonies repudiated their Iberian loyalties not so much because they sought independent nationhood. Rather, as European conflicts and revolutions swept across the Atlantic, empires were no longer viable models of sovereignty--and there was less to be loyal to. The Old Regimes collapsed before subjects began to imagine new ones in their place. The emergence of Latin American nations--indeed many of our contemporary notions of sovereignty--was the effect, and not the cause, of the breakdown of European empires.

This book deals with Chinese immigrants' role in the struggle for Cuban liberation and in Cuba's twentieth-century revolutionary social movement; the history of the Chinese economy in Cuba; and the Chinese contribution to Cuban music, painting, food, sport, and language. The centerpiece of the book is a translation of a study by Mauro Garc'a Triana and Pedro Eng Herrera on the history of the Chinese presence in Cuba. Over many years, Garc'a and Eng have collaborated closely on scholarly research on the Chinese contribution to Cuban life and politics, although their work is not widely known. Both are well equipped for such an enterprise: Eng as a Cuban of Chinese descent and a participant in the ethnic-Chinese revolutionary movement in Cuba, starting in the 1950s; Garc'a as a participant in the struggle against Batista and Cuban Ambassador to China during the period of the Cultural Revolution. The study is supplemented by an extensive collection of archival photographs and of paintings on Cuban-Chinese themes by Pedro Eng, who is not just a chronicler of the community but a well-known worker-artist who paints in a style described by commentators as 'naive.' The volume has three appendices: excerpts from the Cuba Commission's 1877 report on Chinese emigration to Cuba; the rebel leader Gonzalo de Quesada y Ar-stegui's pamphlet 'The Chinese and Cuban Independence,' translated from his book Mi primera ofrenda (My first offering), first published in 1892; and the chapter on 'Coolie Life in Cuba' from Duvon Clough Corbitt's Study of the Chinese in Cuba, 1847-1947 (Wilmore 1971).

This book is a study of the political development of the many factions that surfaced in Mexico from the achievement of independence in 1821 to General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna's last government in 1853-55. Paying particular attention to the writings of the main thinkers of the period and the ways in which they inspired or were betrayed by their respective factions, this volume concentrates on the evolution of the different factions (traditionalists, moderates, radicals, and santanistas), who sustained their beliefs at one point or another. It follows a chronological approach and puts significant emphasis to the way the hopes of the 1820s degenerated into the despair of the 1840s, and how these in turn affected the evolution of the different factions' political proposals. Political proposals and ideologies were important in independent Mexico; it was an age of proposals. Various constitutional projects were proposed, discussed, attempted, or dismissed. This study offers a comprehensive analysis of how the generalized liberal principles of early republican Mexico became fractured into numerous conflicting political proposals and movements. In response to the ever-changing political landscape of the new nation, the emergent Mexican political class was prevented from achieving the ever-evasive constitutional order, unity, progress, and stability all dreamed of experiencing when General Agustin de Iturbide marched into Mexico City on September 27, 1821. Appendices with a glossary, chronologies, and description of major personalities are included.

This book deals with the gross human rights violations that characterized the military repression in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay from the 1960s to the 1980s. Dr Wolfgang Heinz, the author of three of the four case studies is a German scholar. The second author, Dr Hugo Frühling, is a Chilean researcher. Both are renowned human rights specialists who have done in-depth research on the causes of gross human rights violations in these countries. They have interviewed generals and officers directly involved in the repression. They have unearthed secret documents and, building on existing scholarship, they have managed to draw a unique picture of the mechanisms of repressive domestic social control. They have investigated international factors as well as the dynamics of the interaction between guerrilleros and urban terrorists on the one hand, and the military, the police forces and the death squads on the other. The result is a comprehensive volume, broad and comparative in scope, and written with clinical detachment but also with humanitarian sympathy for the victims of repression.
