Elecciones en el México del siglo XIX: las prácticas. Tomo I
Las elecciones en el siglo XIX mexicano, sin ser democráticas, tuvieron un lugar y una función política fundamental que iba mucho más allá de un simple ritual legitimador de gobiernos republicanos. Tuvieron gran centralidad en la construcción de los poderes públicos, así como en los procesos de articulación de la sociedad política en sus diferentes niveles y momentos. Las elecciones decimonónicas constituyeron una forma muy importante de hacer política en el México de entonces —entretejidas con otras, como la acción periodística y los pronunciamientos militares.

The Inquisition Trial of Jerónimo de Rojas, A Morisco of Toledo (1601-1603)
This book includes the whole transcription of the trial of a converted Muslim (Morisco) from Toledo, condemned to die at the stake at the beginning of the 17th century. In their study of the trial, the authors address the question of how and to what extent Inquisition documents can be used as an historical source by contextualizing and analysing its multifaceted aspects as well as its protagonists and participants, victim, witnesses, and inquisitors. The authors elucidate the beliefs and practices of the culprit, situating his ordeal in the framework of Morisco life and its connections with North African Islam. By so doing they shed light on questions of Inquisitorial procedure, witnessing and testimony, the extent of confession, the effects of life in prison, the relations of trust between inmates and the consequences of isolation.

Identity and Violence in Early Modern Granada
In Identity and Violence in Early Modern Granada: Conversos and Moriscos, Tanja Zakrzewski argues that Conversos and Moriscos, despite being distinct sociocultural groups within Spanish society, still employed the same arguments and rhetorical strategies to establish and defend their place within society. Both Conversos and Moriscos relied on contemporary notions of honour, authority, and loyalty to emphasize that they are true Spaniards - not despite their New Christian heritage but because of it. This book offers an entangled narrative of their history and examines how their notions of honour and hispanidad shaped their socio-cultural identities during the time of the socio-cultural identities during the time of the Alpujarras Rebellion.
