Judicial Reforms in Mexico
This intriguing study of Mexico's participation in world's fairs from 1889 to 1929 explores Mexico's self-presentation at these fairs as a reflection of the country's drive toward nationalization and a modernized image.

The collection spans the earliest days of archaeology as a discipline to the present, telling the stories of w...
