Un pueblo que camina
Un pueblo que camina. PeregrinaciÓn con el SeÑor del Cerrito de Tepexpan es un libro que pregunta sobre la cosmovisiÓn del grupo Étnico mazahua a travÉs de una peregrinaciÓn tradicional. El estudio cobra relevancia no sÓlo por la carencia de este tipo de preguntas, sino porque se expresan en el ritual, que funcionan como entradas al pensamiento y cosmovisiÓn de dicho grupo cultural. En le Ámbito de la organizaciÓn social, se encuentran las mayordomÍas y el comisariado ejidal, ademÁs del culto a los ancestros mediante el oratorio familiar que aglutina a la familia extensa; en el Ámbito de lo simbÓlico, se encuentran el emblematico coyote como ofrma mÍtica ancestral, las danzas que definen los cuatro rumbos del viento y la dramatizaciÓn de la peregrinaciÓn que contraponen las fuerzas selenitas y celestes, de cuya fricciÓn se generan las condiciones para renovar el tiempo y justificar la existencia y propuesta de sociedad de este grupo Étnico. Este estudio parte de una comunidad, pero lanza hipÓtesis que permiten extender las interpretaciones al mundo Étnico mazahua en su conjunto.
Captivity Beyond Prisons
Today the United States leads the world in incarceration rates. The country increasingly relies on the prison system as a “fix” for the regulation of societal issues. Captivity Beyond Prisons is the first full-length book to explicitly link prisons and incarceration to the criminalization of Latina (im)migrants. Starting in the 1990s, the United States saw tremendous expansion in the number of imprisoned (im)migrants, specifically Latinas/os. Consequently, there was also an increase in the number of deportations. In addition to regulating society, prisons also serve as a reproductive control strategy, both in preventing female inmates from having children and by separating them from thei...
The Media and International Communication
The twenty-first century is witness to complex social, political, and cultural phenomena transforming the world in which we live. There are numerous aspects to this global process; most of them, however, are related one way or another to the media of communication which foster and accelerate it. The chapters in this book approach media and international/intercultural communication from various global perspectives. The authors provide insight into the impact of media on different contexts, cultures and nations. One theme that weaves its way throughout this collection of essays is an intercultural one, broadly defined as the contact point between two cultures that changes both to some degree. Scholars from different places in the world try to understand, explain and/or argue from a variety of traditions, perspectives and values. They examine the contact point between culture and identity, media and culture, art and media, technology and translation, theater and culture, etc., in order to better understand how and to what degree changes occur.

Interdisciplinary Statistics in Mexico
The volume includes a collection of peer-reviewed contributions from among those presented at the FNE, the main conference organized every two years by the Mexican Statistical Society (AME), and the 2020 AME Virtual Meeting. Statistical research in Latin America is prolific and research networks span both within and outside the region. As much of the work is typically carried out and published in Spanish, a large portion of the interested public is denied access to interesting findings, and the goal of this volume is therefore to provide access to selected works from Mexican collaborators and their international research networks to a wider audience. It may be especially attractive to academics interested in the latest methodological advances, while professionals from other disciplines may also find value in these new tools for data analysis. In 2021, the conference broadly focused on the interdisciplinary aspects of Statistics.
Política
Política offers a stunning revisionist understanding of the early political incorporation of Mexican-origin peoples into the U.S. body politic in the nineteenth century. Historical sociologist Phillip B. Gonzales reexamines the fundamental issue in New Mexico's history, namely, the dramatic shift in national identities initiated by Nuevomexicanos when their province became ruled by the United States. Gonzales provides an insightful, rigorous, and controversial interpretation of how Nuevomexicano political competition was woven into the Democratic and Republican two-party system that emerged in the United States between the 1850s and 1912, when New Mexico became a state. Drawing on newly dis...
