This book examines the social worlds of young Latino street vendors as they navigate the complexities of local and federal laws prohibiting both their presence and their work on street corners. Known as fruteros, they sell fruit salads out of pushcarts throughout Los Angeles and are part of the urban landscape. Drawing on six years of fieldwork, Rocío Rosales offers a compelling portrait of their day-to-day struggles. In the process, she examines how their paisano (hometown compatriot) social networks both help and exploit them. Much of the work on newly arrived Latino immigrants focuses on the ways in which their social networks allow them to survive. Rosales argues that this understanding of ethnic community simplifies the complicated ways in which social networks and social capital work. Fruteros sheds light on those complexities and offers the concept of the “ethnic cage” to explain both the promise and pain of community.

Las artes textiles, especialmente el hilado, han sido actividades impuestas tradicionalmente a las mujeres. Los libros de moral y de conducta, salidos de la pluma de escritores como Juan Luis Vives o fray Luis de León, además de obras literarias como La Celestina, establecieron una honda ligazón entre las mujeres y la rueca o el huso, el hilo o la aguja. Estas fuentes y la documentación de los archivos revelan que la sociedad patriarcal ha utilizado las labores textiles para construir un ideal de feminidad y para controlar los espacios, los tiempos, las actividades y, en definitiva, la vida de las mujeres. En los albores de la Edad Moderna y entre las féminas de condición social elevada, triunfó una de estas labores textiles: el bordado. El bordado y otras artes de la aguja con él emparentadas, cumplieron funciones similares a la hora de crear un modelo de mujer virtuosa y honesta, una mujer anclada a la esfera doméstica. Pero las féminas hicieron del bordado un recurso creativo, a través del cual, combinando técnicas, materiales y motivos, se transmitieron conocimientos y enhebraron relatos para hacer oír su voz. El bordado fue un mecanismo de dominio, incluso de domesticación de las féminas, pero a la vez fue un medio de expresión para ellas, cuando no de subversión de los valores sociales del momento. A lo largo de los distintos capítulos que conforman esta obra se estudian estos aspectos. Se incide en la relación entre textil y virtud femenina, entre bordado y los espacios domésticos, entre las labores de aguja y la palabra femenina. Se aborda también el análisis de los instrumentos, los modelos, las técnicas y las complejas obras creadas por las mujeres a lo largo de la Edad Moderna. Porque estudiar el bordado es fundamental para reconstruir la vida de las mujeres, para entender cómo un grupo subordinado y numeroso utilizó las vías que estaban a su alcance para inventar e idear. También lo es para recuperar unas creaciones en su mayor parte desaparecidas y olvidadas. En definitiva, estudiar el bordado es estudiar la historia de las mujeres.

The first quarter of the 21st century introduced the world to rapid uncertainty, be it the social-political and financial crises, or pandemics, or the shaking up of well-established democracies with an increasing rise in populism. At the same time, the technological promise has taken off with automation, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnologies increasingly becoming an economic reality. This open-access book brings together experts of specific domains, through the windows of their experience, and in a crowdsourced fashion, to analyze these world developments to develop an overall view, a compelling case of what we should be prepared for, as we march towards 2050. Topics covered include the future of leadership, the future of solving global challenges, and designing a way of life in harmony with nature. Other topics include disruptive entrepreneurship, the relevance of geographical borders, game-changing future innovations, education, and networked learning, interplanetary travel, and communication. The book also places an importance on the role of empathy, mindfulness, presence, and sharing becoming the anchors for future decision-making by 2050. Of general interest to anyone eager to understand the future of the world, this book is particularly useful for planners, policymakers, strategists and entrepreneurs.
