El presente libro está compuesto por once estudios de caso elaborados a modo de relectura historiográfica sobre maneras actuales de abordar el tema de la ciudadanía. Aunque ésta se asume como resultado de las reformas institucionales, de las luchas sociales que se producen al margen de las instituciones y de la combinación de ambos fenómenos, esto es, producto de conflictos y de negociaciones entre las fuerzas estructurales políticas y sociales de un país, tiene al estado como el agente garante y regulador de su materialización y como la entidad decisoria última a cerca de quién es ciudadano.

Can citizenship rights be denied to significant groups in a society that regards itself as civilized and self-governing? Is it possible to exclude such people in the name of freedom and reason? Is it plausible to explain classifications that differentiate between first- and second-class citizens as “natural”? This is the paradox inherent in modern politics, born of the revolutions that ended the Ancien Régime in the western world. Throughout the nineteenth century and at the beginning of the twentieth, liberalism inspired a representative form of government that appealed to citizenship, yet marginalized many social groups, including natives, women, immigrants, workers, slaves and nomads. In the Hispanic dimension of the Atlantic world that this book deals with, modern politics was based on exclusions explained as natural and necessary. In both Europe and America, a distinction was made between the responsible citizen and those “others” in society, potential “enemies within”, who had to be controlled and supervised. This book explains the success of this political operation by analysing the historical construction of figures of alterity that were fundamental to the definition of national civic identities. Its basic premise is that imaginaries that were constructed in the nineteenth century can be found even today in western political conceptions. The cultural complexity of enduring political images is revealed by exploring the inner workings of virtuous figures in relation to their opposites: readers will find the mosaic of representations of civic alterity both recognisable and surprising. The contributors to this volume provide historical perspectives on the debate on political legitimacy in open societies. Reinventing democracies involves understanding the historicity of inherited formulae of governance and considering them, therefore, as amenable to improvement. The readiness to do this is not a threat to democracy but, rather, a commitment to looking for it.

"This book explores the ways in which people in Latin America and the Caribbean joined with others in Europe and the United States to re-imagine the ancient term "democracy", so as to give it relevance and power in the modern world. In all these regions, that process largely followed the French Revolution; in Latin America it more especially followed independence movements of the 1810s and 20s. The book looks at how a variety of political actors and commentators used the term to characterize or argue about modern conditions through the ensuing half-century; by 1870, it was firmly established in mainstream political lexicons throughout the region. Following introductory scene-setting and overview chapters, specialists contribute wide-ranging accounts of aspects of the context in which the word was "re-imagined"; six final chapters explore differences in its fortune from place to place"--

Marcela Echeverri draws a picture of the royalist region of Popayán (modern-day Colombia) that reveals deep chronological layers and multiple social and spatial textures. She uses royalism as a lens to rethink the temporal, spatial, and conceptual boundaries that conventionally structure historical narratives about the Age of Revolution.

This collaborative multi-authored volume integrates interdisciplinary approaches to ethnic, imperial, and national borderlands in the Iberian World (16th to early 19th centuries). It illustrates the historical processes that produced borderlands in the Americas and connected them to global circuits of exchange and migration in the early modern world. The book offers a balanced state-of-the-art educational tool representing innovative research for teaching and scholarship. Its geographical scope encompasses imperial borderlands in what today is northern Mexico and southern United States; the greater Caribbean basin, including cross-imperial borderlands among the island archipelagos and Central America; the greater Paraguayan river basin, including the Gran Chaco, lowland Brazil, Paraguay, and Bolivia; the Amazonian borderlands; the grasslands and steppes of southern Argentina and Chile; and Iberian trade and religious networks connecting the Americas to Africa and Asia. The volume is structured around the following broad themes: environmental change and humanly crafted landscapes; the role of indigenous allies in the Spanish and Portuguese military expeditions; negotiations of power across imperial lines and indigenous chiefdoms; the parallel development of subsistence and commercial economies across terrestrial and maritime trade routes; labor and the corridors of forced and free migration that led to changing social and ethnic identities; histories of science and cartography; Christian missions, music, and visual arts; gender and sexuality, emphasizing distinct roles and experiences documented for men and women in the borderlands. While centered in the colonial era, it is framed by pre-contact Mesoamerican borderlands and nineteenth-century national developments for those regions where the continuity of inter-ethnic relations and economic networks between the colonial and national periods is particularly salient, like the central Andes, lowland Bolivia, central Brazil, and the Mapuche/Pehuenche captaincies in South America. All the contributors are highly recognized scholars, representing different disciplines and academic traditions in North America, Latin America and Europe.

The history of education in the modern world is a history of transnational and cross-cultural influence. This collection explores those influences in (post) colonial and indigenous education across different geographical contexts. The authors emphasize how local actors constructed their own adaptation of colonialism, identity, and autonomy, creating a multi-centric and entangled history of modern education. In both formal as well as informal aspects, they demonstrate that transnational and cross-cultural exchanges in education have been characterized by appropriation, re-contextualization, and hybridization, thereby rejecting traditional notions of colonial education as an export of pre-existing metropolitan educational systems.

Yucatán, 1847. La incipiente república mejicana está ocupada por tropas de la Unión Americana. Se inicia una ominosa guerra, la que pronto sería llamada "Guerra de castas". Tizimín, situado en las últimas fronteras de la civilización, una década atrás había padecido de asonadas de militares que pretendían separar a la península de Méjico. Desde 1812 la Nueva España habían derogado de facto las leyes de las Cortes de Cádiz, que otorgaban a los indígenas los mismos privilegios que gozaban los españoles. Los nuevos amos son ahora los criollos: hacendados, empresarios, militares, clérigos, y una pequeña burguesía, oprimieron los mayas y restauraron el feudalismo en la región. El levantamiento indígena resultante sería el más cruento que recuerde la historia del Continente. En aquel ambiente, un mozalbete de ambigua procedencia y trastornada personalidad, se involucra activamente en la contienda. La gente blanca del pueblo huye en urgida caravana hacia Mérida, ciudad blanca. En el trayecto, nuestro amigo va descubriendo la realidad de sus orígenes. Y todo parece haber cambiado para él. A la muerte de sus padres, su tía y el cura del pueblo ya se habían encargado de su educación. Un misterioso personaje aparece reiteradamente a suplantar su singular personalidad. Su fascinación por la aventura, la temprana avidez por el dinero, una innata empatía hacia los mayas, y sus relación con una jovencita indígena, le mueven a unirse a los alzados, al tiempo que sus nuevos preceptores le apoyan en su vocación a las letras. A cuatro décadas de la huída, Turix nos relata las peripecias de su vida, y nos da a conocer el intolerante ambiente de aquella época. "El escritor es un observador imparcial, no juez de sus personajes, o de las palabras que él pueda poner en su boca; aprende a alejarse de sí mismo y a mirarse sin complicidades. No resuelve problemas, sólo los plantea abiertamente", expresa en algún momento de su narrativa.
