El Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas y la historia académica.

Este libro rastrea y analiza el quehacer del Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas de la UJED, a lo largo de las cuatro décadas que van desde su creación a la actualidad (1979-2019). El propósito es hacer un balance de lo producido en cuarenta años por el conjunto de académicos que, desde la Institución, han contribuido al desarrollo del conocimiento histórico del norte mexicano. Concentra la información que fue posible acopiar por la vía de la entrevista, de la investigación, de los recuerdos y del análisis de la producción de los investigadores que han transitado por el Instituto en sus cuarenta años de existencia, y constituye un valioso documento por ser una especie de mirada íntima a la vida y obra de los investigadores del IIH.

Of Love and Papers

A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. Of Love and Papers explores how immigration policies are fundamentally reshaping Latino families. Drawing on two waves of interviews with undocumented young adults, Enriquez investigates how immigration status creeps into the most personal aspects of everyday life, intersecting with gender to constrain family formation. The imprint of illegality remains, even upon obtaining DACA or permanent residency. Interweaving the perspectives of US citizen romantic partners and children, Enriquez illustrates the multigenerational punishment that limits the upward mobility of Latino families. Of Love and Papers sparks an intimate understanding of contemporary US immigration policies and their enduring consequences for immigrant families.

Working at the local processing plant, Marcos is in the business of slaughtering humans—though no one calls them that anymore. His wife has left him, his father is sinking into dementia, and Marcos tries not to think too hard about how he makes a living. After all, it happened so quickly. First, it was reported that an infectious virus has made all animal meat poisonous to humans. Then governments initiated the “Transition.” Now, eating human meat—“special meat”—is legal. Marcos tries to stick to numbers, consignments, processing. Then one day he’s given a gift: a live specimen of the finest quality. Though he’s aware that any form of personal contact is forbidden on pain of death, little by little he starts to treat her like a human being. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost—and what might still be saved.

From Where We Stand

This original study examines women's activism against war in areas as far apart as Sierra Leone, India, Colombia and Palestine. It shows women on different sides of conflicts in the former Yugoslavia and Israel addressing racism and refusing enmity and describes international networks of women opposing US and Western European militarism and the so-called 'war on terror'. These movements, though diverse, are generating an antimilitarist feminism that challenges how war and militarism are understood, both in academic studies and the mainstream anti-war movement. Gender, particularly the form taken by masculinity in a violent sex/gender system, is inseparably linked to economic and ethno-national factors in the perpetuation of war.

De género y guerra. Nuevos enfoques en los conflictos armados actuales

En un mundo cada vez más global y sistemáticamente fragmentado la guerra sigue generando víctimas. En esa realidad, hombres, mujeres y personas con identidades de género diversas han padecido los horrores de la lucha entre los seres humanos. Sin embargo, el sufrimiento de cada uno es diferente, precisamente, porque la mujer o las personas con una identidad de género diversa viven y sienten los conflictos de una forma distinta. En este sentido, el propósito de esta obra es divulgar una serie de estudios y reflexiones sobre la guerra a partir de una perspectiva de género. El libro que usted tiene en sus manos, explora desde una visión nterdisciplinar una serie de conflictos que han ocurrido en Sudáfrica, Palestina, El Salvador, la antigua ex Yugoslavia y Perú, con lo cual pretende nutrir las problemáticas y soluciones que se han desarrollado en otras latitudes.
