After Spanish Rule
Insisting on the critical value of Latin American histories for recasting theories of postcolonialism, After Spanish Rule is the first collection of essays by Latin Americanist historians and anthropologists to engage postcolonial debates from the perspective of the Americas.

Una historia del turismo en el Perú
Actualmente el Perú recibe un gran flujo de turistas extranjeros que recorren en forma permanente Cuzco, Puno, Arequipa, Lima y otros puntos del país. Mientras que en fines de semana largos o en períodos vacacionales millones de peruanos viajan por el territorio nacional. ¿Pero fue siempre así? En este libro innovador, Fernando Armas Asín narra la historia del turismo en el Perú, desde sus orígenes en el siglo XIX, pasando por su complejo y difícil desarrollo a lo largo del siglo XX, hasta llegar al año 2000. Viajes en caballos, en autos, carreteras, hoteles y aviones pasan por estas páginas; centrándose el autor en aspectos relevantes como la lenta y progresiva conformación de los destinos turísticos, las políticas públicas para su fomento, el rol del empresariado turístico o las problemáticas asociadas con los turistas y su efecto transformador.
