Culture and Revolution
In the twenty years of postrevolutionary rule in Mexico, the war remained fresh in the minds of those who participated in it, while the enigmas of the revolution remained obscured. Demonstrating how textuality helped to define the revolution, Culture and Revolution examines dozens of seemingly ahistorical artifacts to reveal the radical social shifts that emerged in the war’s aftermath. Presented thematically, this expansive work explores radical changes that resulted from postrevolution culture, including new internal migrations; a collective imagining of the future; popular biographical narratives, such as that of the life of Frida Kahlo; and attempts to create a national history that un...

Courting Democracy in Mexico
This book documents Mexico's gradual transition to democracy, written from a perspective which pits opposition activists' post-electoral conflicts against their usage of regime-constructed electoral courts at the centre of the democratization process. It addresses the puzzle of why, during key moments of Mexico's 27-year democratic transition, opposition parties failed to use autonomous electoral courts established to mitigate the country's often violent post-electoral disputes, despite formal guarantees of court independence from the Party of the Institutional Revolution (PRI), Mexico's ruling party for 71 years (preceeding the watershed 2000 presidential elections). Drawing on hundreds of author interviews throughout Mexico over a three-year period and extensive archival research, the author explores choices by the rightist National Action Party (PAN) and the leftist Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) between post-electoral conflict resolution via electoral courts and via traditional routes - mobilization and bargaining with the PRI-state.

La revolución inconclusa
Los textos que componen esta antología fueron publicados originalmente a instancias del Grupo Cultural Ricardo Flores Magón, tras la muerte del autor en una prisión estadounidense en 1922. Con claras influencias anarquistas, socialistas y comunistas, Flores Magón le dio un valor preponderante y positivo al trabajo como un agente libertador y dignificante, en oposición al capital y la explotación; los escritos aquí reunidos fueron concebidos con un único e inamovible objetivo: hacer propaganda revolucionaria, finalidad a la que su autor consagró prácticamente todos los esfuerzos de su existencia.
La gestión política de la moneda y la edificación de la hacienda pública mexicana, 1825-1857
El presente libro es un acercamiento a la historia fiscal y monetaria mexicana a partir de la construcción de una categoría de análisis denominada gestión política de la moneda. Este planteamiento es producto del estudio de las condiciones que hicieron posible la apertura de casas de moneda estatales y su arrendamiento a compañías privadas a partir de 1825. Las cecas de Guanajuato, Zacatecas y la Ciudad de México sirven de escenario para mostrar el funcionamiento de estos acuerdos contractuales, los ajustes que sufrieron a lo largo del tiempo, la operación de arreglos institucionales (formales e informales), así como la agencia de actores públicos y privados, tanto nacionales como...
