Memoria del monte: Manuel Rendón Solórzano
Este es un documento ágrafo del siglo XIX ha recorrido por los caminos cantando los quehaceres del campo, las costumbres del pueblo y las pasiones de las mujeres y de los hombres de su tiempo. Su herencia poética ha llegado hasta nuestros días de la mano de familiares que transcribieron su voz. El estudio introductorio desafía la visión letrada respecto a obras como la de Rendón Solórzano formulada desde el folclor y la tradición oral. La cosmovisión y el trabajo con la lengua ameritan que este manabita sea considerado como la voz poética de los acontecimientos de su tiempo y geografía. El ensayo recupera ciento sesenta décimas que buscan ser leídas como literatura montuvia en el campo de las oraliteraturas, evitando el cajón folclórico donde yacen dormidos tantos poetas del pueblo.

The New Sultan
In a world of rising tensions between Russia and the United States, the Middle East and Europe, Sunnis and Shiites, Islamism and liberalism, Turkey is at the epicentre. And at the heart of Turkey is its right-wing populist president, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an. Since 2002, Erdo?an has consolidated his hold on domestic politics while using military and diplomatic means to solidify Turkey as a regional power. His crackdown has been brutal and consistent - scores of journalists arrested, academics officially banned from leaving the country, university deans fired and many of the highest-ranking military officers arrested. In some senses, the nefarious and failed 2016 coup has given Erdo?an the licence to make good on his repeated promise to bring order and stability under a 'strongman'. Here, leading Turkish expert Soner Cagaptay will look at Erdo?an's roots in Turkish history, what he believes in and how he has cemented his rule, as well as what this means for the world. The book will also unpick the 'threats' Erdogan has worked to combat - from the liberal Turks to the Gulen movement, from coup plotters to Kurdish nationalists - all of which have culminated in the crisis of modern Turkey.

Andean Cocaine
Illuminating a hidden and fascinating chapter in the history of globalization, Paul Gootenberg chronicles the rise of one of the most spectacular and now illegal Latin American exports: cocaine. Gootenberg traces cocaine's history from its origins as a medical commodity in the nineteenth century to its repression during the early twentieth century and its dramatic reemergence as an illicit good after World War II. Connecting the story of the drug's transformations is a host of people, products, and processes: Sigmund Freud, Coca-Cola, and Pablo Escobar all make appearances, exemplifying the global influences that have shaped the history of cocaine. But Gootenberg decenters the familiar story...
