Bread, or Bullets!
Bread or Bullets! is the first thoroughly documented history of organized labor in nineteenth-century Cuba. Based on research in libraries and archives in Cuba, Spain, the United States, and the Netherlands, it focuses on how urban laborers joined together in collective action during the transition from slave to free labor and in the last decades of Spanish colonial rule in Cuba. Nineteenth-century Cuban colonial society and the slavery system sharply divided Cuba’s inhabitants by race and origin.

La equidad y la educación
¿Mejorar el rendimiento educativo del alumnado con más desventaja social?, ¿que haya pocas diferencias educativas entre las personas de más alto y más bajo nivel social?, ¿prohibir o permitir el hijab en las aulas?... Entender por qué hay tantas formas de aproximarse a la equidad es uno de los objetivos de este libro. Pero no se queda en lo abstracto, sino que también diagnostica el estado de la equidad en nuestro sistema educativo. Para ello, el autor realiza un esfuerzo por clarificar la confusión que reina en el debate sobre la educación en España. Mediante el rigor analítico y el análisis de las principales fuentes de datos, presenta una explicación de la falta de equidad y realiza propuestas de mejora. (Fuente: La Casa del Libro).
The Oxford Handbook of Spanish Politics
The Oxford Handbook of Spanish Politics provides a comprehensive and comparative overview of the Spanish political system through the lens of political science. It aims to move away from a complacent analysis of Spanish democracy and provide a nuanced view of some of its strengths and challenges. The Handbook introduces Spanish politics to an international audience of scholars and practitioners. It is structured around six sections that cover Spain's political history, institutional changes, elections, civil society, policy-making, and foreign affairs. The volume brings together a distinguished group of 47 internationally renowned scholars who study Spain in its own right, or as a case among others in a comparative perspective. The contributors provide expert accounts of contemporary Spain, making the Oxford Handbook of Spanish Politics an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Spanish politics and government since the country's transition to democracy.
