"The one source that sets reference collections on Latin American studies apart from all other geographic areas of the world.... The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field.

Liberals, Politics, and Power

Looking at the Latin American liberal project during the century of postindependence, this collection of original essays draws attention to an underappreciated dilemma confronting liberals: idealistic visions and fiscal restraints. Liberals, Politics, and Power focuses on the inventiveness of nineteenth-century Latin Americans who applied liberal ideology to the founding and maintenance of new states. The impact of liberalism in Latin America, the contributors show, is best understood against the larger backdrop of struggles that pitted regional demands against the pressures of foreign finance, a powerful church against a decentralized state, and aristocratic desire to retain privilege again...

Clássicos de história política: o Rio Grande do Sul e a Primeira República

A presente obra não se constitui apenas em uma coletânea impessoal de textos de referência de História do Rio Grande do Sul, mas, sobretudo, no resultado de um esforço pessoal de interlocução de Rodrigo Dal Forno e Rafael Lapuente com os seus respectivos autores, o que provocou em todos eles uma reflexão a respeito da relevância e validade da reedição dos seus estudos nos dias de hoje. Em todos os casos, contudo, prevaleceu entre os historiadores, da velha e da nova geração, a consciência da historicidade de cada um dos textos, agora reeditados. Cada um deles, certamente, é filho do seu próprio tempo. Simultaneamente, há a consciência da sua importância e relevância histórica, o que justifica uma nova edição, tão bem organizada. Ganhamos todos.

  • Publisher: Routledge

Power in the Village explores the formation of late-nineteenth-century Italian rural society in southern Brazil, through an examination of how Italian peasants in northern Italy and southern Brazil solved issues related to family honor. Looking specifically at social networks and justice practices to examine the kind of rationality that ruled individual and family behaviors, the book offers an understanding of the restoration of social balance in these communities, and explores the culture of immigrants, particularly in issues related to honor and morality. Taking as a case study the ambush and murder of a parish priest, Antonio Sorio, in January 1900 in Silveira Martins, a small town of Ita...

Federalista: a revolução da degola

Buscando analisar os fatos de uma perspectiva histórica mais aprofundada, o autor Renato Mocellin explica com eficiência os acontecimentos que culminaram em uma das maiores e mais sangrentas revoluções ocorridas em solo brasileiro. A revolução da degola, como ficou conhecida o levante sulista batizado de Revolução Federalista, ocorrida entre 1893 e 1895, foi uma das principais formas de contestação do regime republicano brasileiro, que acabara de ser instalado em 1889. Uma leitura importante e enriquecedora de mais esse capítulo da história brasileira.
