Social Inclusion and Economic Development in Latin America
Poverty and inequality in Latin America are easily recognizable in the faces of women, Afro-descendents, the indigenous, people with disabilities, victims of HIV/AIDS, and other groups outside the societal mainstream. Social Inclusion and Economic Development in Latin America reviews the common features of these excluded populations, including their invisibility in official statistics and the stigma, discrimination, and disadvantages they have long endured. But it also examines the region's inclusionary policies and programs that can improve access by these groups to the quality social services and economic and political resources these groups need to level the playing field. Case studies examine ethnic and racial political organization, gender quotas, and labor markets across the region, and social exclusion in Brazil, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico, and Peru. Comparative studies summarize social inclusion policies of both the European Union and selected countries on the Continent.
Mosaics in Mexico
The author presents the history evolution of the mosaic production since ancient Greek and Roman tiles and Pre-Columbian mosaic pieces along the history of "Mosaicos Venicianos de Mexico", a factory and workshop owned and operated by the Perdomo family for over 50 years. In the workshop located in Cuernavaca (state of Morelos, Mexico) several generations of mosaicists have produced glass Byzantine mosaic tiles while upholding the highs tandards of the traditional craft of the tesserae with extraordinary examples of contemporary mosaic art displayed in murals and architectural ornamentation. The company has participated with artists Jose Chavez Morado, Diego Rivera, Juan O'Gorman, David Alfaro Siqueiros and Francisco Eppens amongst others in the creation of monumental public mosaic murals"--Provided by vendor.
Finding Afro-Mexico
In 2015, the Mexican state counted how many of its citizens identified as Afro-Mexican for the first time since independence. Finding Afro-Mexico reveals the transnational interdisciplinary histories that led to this celebrated reformulation of Mexican national identity. It traces the Mexican, African American, and Cuban writers, poets, anthropologists, artists, composers, historians, and archaeologists who integrated Mexican history, culture, and society into the African Diaspora after the Revolution of 1910. Theodore W. Cohen persuasively shows how these intellectuals rejected the nineteenth-century racial paradigms that heralded black disappearance when they made blackness visible first in Mexican culture and then in post-revolutionary society. Drawing from more than twenty different archives across the Americas, this cultural and intellectual history of black visibility, invisibility, and community-formation questions the racial, cultural, and political dimensions of Mexican history and Afro-diasporic thought.
