Etnografía del patrimonio biocultural de las regiones y territorios indígenas de México III
Se exploran los conceptos de diversidad y patrimonio biocultural, situándolos en el contexto legal y de derechos humanos en México como país pluricultural. En cada capítulo, se abordan aspectos del vínculo indisoluble de los pueblos indígenas con su entorno, con enfoques analíticos distintos, como la etnoecología, el diálogo de saberes, la ecología política, entre otros.

Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders
Phytochemicals are naturally occurring bioactive compounds found in edible fruits, plants, vegetables, and herbs. Unlike vitamins and minerals, phytochemicals are not needed for the maintenance of cell viability, but they play a vital role in protecting neural cells from inflammation and oxidative stress associated with normal aging and acute and chronic age-related brain diseases. Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders explores the advances in our understanding of the potential neuroprotective benefits that these naturally occurring chemicals contain. Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders explores the role that a number of plant-bas...

Bastión de brujos y sueños
Nunca fue mi interés hacer un libro teórico. Más allá del material, diálogos e inquietudes acumulados por años de trabajo de campo, el detonador que ofreció un hilo desde dónde empezar a tejer, fue un conjunto de sueños que desde 2015 se abatió sobre los pobladores de Zapote Bravo, en los calurosos lomeríos de la Huasteca veracruzana, desencadenando una serie de eventos rituales, búsquedas y conflictos que terminaron por cimbrar la añeja jerarquía chamánica, lo que implicó un necesario acompañamiento teórico para explorar sus causas. Poco antes de que la pandemia la alcanzara, esta comunidad ya enfrentaba una inusual crisis que alteró su dinámica ritual y socavó el lider...
Las regiones indígenas a prueba de la etnografía
Los ensayos que conforman este volumen son producto de un ejercicio de reflexión colectiva, ¿a qué obedecen las palabras “regiones”, “indígenas” y “etnografía” en el título de uno de los proyectos de mayor envergadura en el quehacer etnográfico mexicano de los últimos veinte años: el Programa Nacional Etnografía de las Regiones Indígenas de México? Escudriñar en el título, implica reabrir los debates iniciales en los que se cimentó un programa que buscaba resarcir las limitaciones de la etnografía producida en México.
Cultural Transfer and Political Conflicts
Film festivals during the Cold War were fraught with the political and social tensions that dominated the world at the time. While film was becoming an increasingly powerful medium, the European festivals in particular established themselves as showcases for filmmakers and their perceptions of reality. At the same time, their prestigious, international character attracted the interest of states and private players. The history of these festivals thus sheds light not only on the films they made available to various publics, but on the cultural policies and political processes that informed their operations. Presenting new research by an international group of younger scholars, Cultural Transfer and Political Conflicts critically investigates postwar history in the context of film festivals reconstructing not only their social background and international dispensation, but also their centrality for cultural transfers between the East, the West and the South during the Cold War.
The Relative Volatility of Commodity Prices
This paper studies the volatility of commodity prices on the basis of a large dataset of monthly prices observed in international trade data from the United States over the period 2002 to 2011. The conventional wisdom in academia and policy circles is that primary commodity prices are more volatile than those of manufactured products, even though most of the existing evidence does not actually attempt to measure the volatility of prices of individual goods or commodities. Rather the literature tends to focus on trends in the evolution and volatility of ratios of price indexes composed of multiple commodities and products. This approach can be misleading. Indeed, the evidence presented in this paper suggests that on average prices of individual primary commodities may be less volatile than those of individual manufactured goods.
Race in Another America
This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date book on the increasingly important and controversial subject of race relations in Brazil. North American scholars of race relations frequently turn to Brazil for comparisons, since its history has many key similarities to that of the United States. Brazilians have commonly compared themselves with North Americans, and have traditionally argued that race relations in Brazil are far more harmonious because the country encourages race mixture rather than formal or informal segregation. More recently, however, scholars have challenged this national myth, seeking to show that race relations are characterized by exclusion, not inclusion, and that fair-...
