The Routledge Hispanic Studies Companion to Nineteenth-Century Latin America
The Routledge Hispanic Studies Companion to Nineteenth-Century Latin America provides a unique, comprehensive, and critical overview of Latin American studies in the nineteenth century, including the major regions and subfields. The essays in this collection offer a complex, yet accessible transdisciplinary overview of the heterogeneous and asynchronous historical, political, and cultural processes that account for the becoming of Latin America in the nineteenth century—from Mexico and the Caribbean Basin to the Southern Cone.

Textile Processes
Textiles are everywhere in the modern world as natural, synthetic, and blended fibers, yarns, and fabrics. They might be woven or non-woven. We use them for cloths of all varieties from disposal wipes to bandages to blankets to clothing. We use them in the upholsteries, carpets, and curtains in our homes and in cars and aircraft. Textiles are now “smart.” They can be embedded with sensors that monitor our life functions, such as heart rate and breathing, and send signals to medical authorities about pending heart attacks. Giving the textiles different forms through cutting and sewing as well as combining different textile and non-textile materials, we can produce products with a wide ran...
Confine

È qui che indistintamente inizia l’Europa e finisce qualcos’altro che non è più veramente Asia. A grandi linee la sua geografia è questa, ma la cartina vi guiderà solo fino a un certo punto, e poi vi ritroverete nella foresta ancestrale, brulicante di ombre e di esistenze fuori dal tempo. O per lo meno, è lì che sono finita io.

Conflict, Domination, and Violence
Conflict, domination, violence—in this wide-ranging, briskly narrated volume from acclaimed Mexican historian Carlos Illades, these three phenomena register the pulse of a diverse, but inequitable and discriminatory, social order. Drawing on rich and varied historical sources, Illades guides the reader through seven signal episodes in Mexican social history, from rebellions under Porfirio Díaz’s dictatorship to the cycles of violence that have plagued the country’s deep south to the recent emergence of neo-anarchist movements. Taken together, they comprise a mosaic history of power and resistance, with artisans, rural communities, revolutionaries, students, and ordinary people confronting the forces of domination and transforming Mexican society.
