Proyectos episcopales y secularización en México, siglo XIX
La obra reúne seis estudios de caso sobre la reacción de los obispos ante los cambios que trajeron consigo la modernidad política y económica en el siglo XIX, esto es, ante lo que se conoce como el procesos de secularización. Los obispos habían sido personajes fundamentales de la vida religiosa y política del Antiguo Régimen, prácticamente al mismo nivel de autoridad que los magistrados reales, y debían afrontar entonces el desplazamiento de su autoridad por una nueva forma de organización social y política que ya no estaba fundamentada en la religión, sino en principios como los derechos humanos o la soberanía popular. Ante la nueva situación, esas autoridades tradicionales tuvieron reacciones a la vez semejantes y originales, en las que hubo tanto intransigencia como negociación, sin que podamos hablar ni de progreso triunfal ni de decadencia absolutas en un sentido o en otro.

The Europeanization of National Foreign Policies Towards Latin America
Who shapes the European Union's policy towards Latin America? How has this EU policy modified individual member states' relations with the region? This book provides a comparative account of seven member states' bilateral links with Latin America since 1945, in the context of their EU membership and based on the concept of 'Europeanization'. It illustrates how and why the main architects of this EU policy have been Spain and Germany. In contrast, Poland, Sweden and Ireland, which had little previous interaction with Latin America, have developed their current relations with that region virtually as a result of their EU membership. The United Kingdom and France lie in the middle: they have been influential in certain policy-areas and key periods in history, while they have adapted to what is done at the EU level in others. Practitioners, established academic experts as well emerging scholars in the field bring to be bear a novel combination of pioneering research and cutting edge conceptual analysis on this important but neglected area of the EU's foreign relations.
The Zapatista Movement and Mexico's Democratic Transition
Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.

A History of Women in the West
Drawing on myriad sources--from the faint traces left by the rocking of a cradle at the site of an early medieval home to an antique illustration of Eve's fall from grace--this second volume in the celebrated series offers new perspectives on women of the past. Twelve distinguished historians from many countries examine the image of women in the masculine mind, their social condition, and their daily experience from the demise of the Roman Empire to the genesis of the Italian Renaissance. More than in any other era, a medieval woman's place in society was determined by men; her sexuality was perceived as disruptive and dangerous, her proper realm that of the home and cloister. The authors dr...
