Iconografía mexicana VII
Se busca enriquecer las interpretaciones iconográficas conocidas del Paleolítico hasta las efigies marianas de la época novohispana, pasando por las deidas mexicanas.
Mythology and Symbolism of Eurasia and Indigenous Americas
A system of myths, symbols, and rituals, dating back to the Paleolithic and Neolithic, survives in present-day imagery. In exploring this system, special attention is drawn to the linkage between ancient and contemporary civilizations of Eurasia and Mesoamerica, as seen in their cosmology, and expressed in common mythological and iconographic themes. The author examines contemporary Middle American and eastern European textiles, especially women’s garments, that contain an elaborated sacred code of symbols, and include remnants of the four horizontal directions, and the three vertical worlds that portray the structure of the universe. The cosmology contained in patterns around the world denotes striking parallels that attest to internal connections between different cultures, beyond time and place.
Iconografía mexicana VII
"El Seminario Permanente de Iconografía presenta en este libro no sólo investigaciones antropológicas y análisis de historia del arte que buscan enriquecer las interpretaciones iconográficas conocidas, sino que ofrece también un pequeño homenaje a la maestra Noemí Castillo Tejero, investigadora de gran relevancia para la antropología mexicana debido a sus trabajos de campo, sus estudios cerámicos y su gran interés en la preparación de futuros investigadores. Los artículos obre iconografía, pese a ser análisis rigurosos, no están pensados exclusivamente para especialistas: se trata de novedosos aportes, estudios meticulosos de los atributos que caracterizan a las deidades femeninas, que resultan de interés para un público amplio. Los trabajos reunidos en este volumen abarcan desde el Paleolítico hasta las efigies marinas de la época novohispana, pasando por las deidades mexicas."--

Bioprocessing of Agri-Food Residues for Production of Bioproducts
This new volume presents original research and scientific advances in the field of the food bioprocessing, bioproducts, valorization of agricultural and food wastes, microbiology, and biotechnology. It explores the most important advances in the valorization of agri-food residues for the production of bioproducts and in the development of several bioprocessing strategies. The authors place a special emphasis on the challenges that the industry faces in the era of sustainable development and aim to facilitate the reduction of food loss and waste. This book demonstrates the potential and actual development and advances in the design and development of strategies and tools for the bioprocessing of agri-food residues for the production of bioproducts. Bioprocessing of Agri-Food Residues for Production of Bioproducts covers aspects related to biotransformation of agri-food residues such as mango seed, citrus waste, pomegranate husks, nut shells, melon peels, leaves and grains, cheese whey, among others.
El Palacio: Historiography and new perspectives on a pre-Tarascan city of northern Michoacán, Mexico
11 contributions consider legacy and archive data (1896–1995) and results derived from recent archaeological investigations (2012–2017) to present a review and analysis of the chrono-stratigraphy, material culture, urbanism, and economic and ritual practices at El Palacio, northern Michoacán, Mexico, between A.D. 850 and 1521.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Drug Trafficking, Corruption and States
Drug Trafficking, Corruption and States is cutting edge research. Garay Salamanca and Salcedo-Albarán, along with their contributing authors help document the transition from economic to political imperatives within transnational drug cartels. The break from the Zetas by La Familia Michoacana is one example contained in their empirical survey. Social Network Analysis is their tool for illuminating the varying dynamics of cartel-state inter-penetration and reconfiguration. In doing so they clearly discern between State Capture (StC) and Co-opted State Reconfiguration (CStR). As the drug wars and criminal insurgencies rage in the Americas and beyond, this seminal framework will facilitate efforts by scholars, law enforcement officials, intelligence analysts and policymakers to understand shifts in sovereignty, and to illuminate the mechanisms of transnational illicit networks and their interaction with the state.
