A Compact History of Latin America's Cold War
While not commonly centered in the Cold War story, Latin America was intensely affected by that historic conflict. In this book, available for the first time in English, Vanni Pettinà makes sense of the region’s diverse, complex political experiences of the Cold War era. Cross-fertilized by Latin American and Anglophone historiography, his account shifts from an overemphasis on U.S. interventions toward a comprehensive Latin American perspective.

Cuba After the Cold War
Ten original essays by an international team of scholars specializing in Cuba, the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and Latin America focus on the fall of communism in Europe and the transition to a market economy.

Cuba
Lou Perez's Cuba has been a welcome addition to the Cuban history course since it first appeared. The Second Edition has solidified its place as the leading choice among teachers of modern Cuban history, and, based on events over the past nine years, the text has now been updated and revised. Perez has added new material covering the years from 1995 through 2004 in the chapter on Socialist Cuba (the last chapter). Further, the book ends with a political chronology, which has beenrevised and updated; the extensive bibliography been condensed where necessary (through elimination of outdated or superseded entries) and expanded to highlight the scholarship of the past decade (some of it by Perez himself). He has also condensed material in the body of the text where possible.The new edition features a slightly larger format and for the first time, photos in the text and the inclusion of two new maps. Sales of the previous editions have been extremely good, and there's every reason to think that a new Third edition will have an even more enthusiastic reception.

Nos abre las puertas para entrar en ese laberinto del oscuro y perverso mundo del terrorismo imperial con el que Estados Unidos intenta establecer una gobernanza global, bajo democracias de seguridad nacional, que en realidad son un proyecto de recolonización mundial.
Mafalda: historia social y política
En 1964, la revista Primera Plana lanzó una tira de humor cuya protagonista era una niña de clase media, intelectualizada y rebelde, llamada Mafalda. Cincuenta años más tarde, la genial tira de Quino se ha traducido a cerca de veinte idiomas, se sigue reeditando y agotando año tras año, y se ha transformado en un fenómeno mundial. ¿Cómo se explica el éxito y la perdurabilidad de Mafalda? ¿Cuáles fueron sus sentidos sociales, políticos y culturales a lo largo de medio siglo? ¿De qué modo la historieta de Quino se volvió un fenómeno cultural significativo a escala global con vigencia hasta la actualidad? Isabella Cosse propone un recorrido por la historia de las últimas cinco...
