Tenerlo Todo: Having It All in Mi Vida Flamenca
A professional flamenco dancer since the age of 16, Julia Lopez performed in the cafes of Madrid, the resorts of Haiti, and the cabarets of Paris during the 1950's. And though she gave it all up to become the quintessential American military wife and mother traveling from state to state, the spirit and soul of flamenco never left her heart - or her body. It wasn't until the 70's when Julia - now in her 40's, newly single, running a restaurant in the City of Brotherly Love while raising three kids - found her true passion - and new love. Entering into both a personal and professional partnership with the esteemed Carlos Rubio, together they became beloved teachers, re-energized performers, and cultural icons in Philadelphia - and beyond. Julia's unusual life and adventures are fascinating. Her refusal to succumb to the expectations of women in the world of dance - and society - is stirring. And her determination to "have it all," no matter how long it took to find it, is triumphant, heartbreaking, and deeply inspiring.

Celebrating Our Cuentos: Choosing and Using Latinx Literature in the Classroom
Dr. Julia López-Robertson makes a case for infusing our classrooms with literature by a range of Latinx authors and illustrators- voices that reflect our students' experiences and provide a window into the cultures of people from Spanish-speaking countries and communities. She shows how to identify quality literature by checking for bias, stereotypes, and cultural and linguistic authenticity. From there, she explores how to put the literature to work in whole-class lessons, read-alouds, small group discussions, and writing projects to nurture engaged readers. Foreword by Sonia Nieto.

Collective Bargaining and Collective Action
This book offers a unique contribution that examines major recent changes in conflict, negotiation and regulation within the labour relations systems and related governance institutions of advanced societies. The broad scope of analysis includes social welfare institutions, new forms of protest including judicialisation, transnational structures and collective bargaining itself. As the distinguished group of participating authors shows, the accumulation of numerous crucial changes in the interactions of unions, employers, political parties, courts, protestors, regulators and other key actors makes it imperative to reframe the study of collective bargaining and related forms of governance.

Inscribing Solidarity
"Many governments, large institutions, and collective actors rely on the principle of solidarity to embed social policies on firm normative and legal grounds. In this original volume, a multidisciplinary roster of scholars come together to examine the contributions - and challenges - implicit in relying on the idea of solidarity to "inscribe" this principle in social policies. Chapters explore how the dependence on the solidarity principle, and especially on inclusive understandings of solidarity, can strengthen or weaken institutions and movements. The volume's contributors cover developments across decades with a multilevel approach exploring dynamic interactions between local, national, and supranational arenas in pursuing and adjudicating the solidarity principle. Unique and innovative, Inscribing Solidarity examines the implications and dynamics of solidarity across a variety of terrains to illuminate its concrete limitations and specific advantages. This title is also available via Open Access on Cambridge Core"--
