Mexico’s Relations with Latin America during the Cárdenas Era

This book examines culture and diplomacy in Mexico’s relations with the rest of Latin America during the presidency of Lázaro Cárdenas (1934–1940). Drawing on archival research throughout Latin America, the author demonstrates that Cárdenas’s representation of Mexico as a revolutionary nation contributed to the formation of Mexican national identity and spread the legacy of the Mexican Revolution of 1910 beyond Mexico’s borders. Cárdenas did more than any other president to fulfill the goals of the revolution, incorporating the masses into the political life of the nation and implementing land reform, resource nationalization, and secular public education, and his government promoted the idea that these reforms represented a path to social, political, and economic development for the entire region. Kiddle offers a colorful and detailed account of the way Cardenista diplomacy was received in the rest of Latin America and the influence his policies had throughout the continent.

Perhaps more than any other European country, Spain has undergone a remarkable transformation in the post-war period. To the surprise of many, it has succeeded in making the leap from a predominantly agricultural and politically repressed country, to a modern European democracy with a diversified economy containing important manufacturing and service sectors. Yet, despite the fact that at the beginning of the twenty-first century Spain is the world's eighth largest economy, old stereotypes that see the Iberian nation as an inflexible, unchanging society, persist. As such, scholars will welcome this new study which challenges the picaresque and outdated notions of Spanish economic development...

Hidden Geographies

This book defines and discusses the term “hidden geographies” in two ways: systematically and by presenting a variety of examples of the research fields and topics concerning hidden geographies, with the aim of stimulating further basic and applied research in this area. While the term is quite rarely used in the scientific literature (more often as a figure of speech than to illustrate or problematize its deeper meaning), we argue that hidden geographies are everywhere and many of them have significant impacts on (other) natural and social phenomena and processes, subsequently triggering changes, for example in landscape, economy, culture, health or quality of life. The introductory sec...

Politiques de l'eau en milieu méditerranéen

Dans le domaine des politiques de l'eau, la péninsule Ibérique a hérité de son passé une culture de l'eau d'une extrême richesse, variable d'un espace à l'autre mais homogène à l'échelle régionale. Il s'y est substitué, vers la fin du XIXe siècle, une nouvelle culture qui a placé, entre les usagers et la ressource, des structures administratives d'État rendues nécessaires par le coût et l'ampleur des grands travaux hydrauliques à réaliser. Ces structures nouvelles, souvent efficaces mais bureaucratiques, furent aussi à l'origine d'une rupture complète avec les modes de fonctionnement technique et social antérieurs. Les liens anciens avec les territoires se sont distendu...
