Book The Middle Classes in Latin America

Download or read book The Middle Classes in Latin America written by Mario Barbosa Cruz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-13 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a collective effort, this volume locates the formation of the middle classes at the core of the histories of Latin America in the last two centuries. Featuring scholars from different places across the Americas, it is an interdisciplinary contribution to the world histories of the middle classes, histories of Latin America, and intersectional studies. It also engages a larger audience about the importance of the middle classes to understand modernity, democracy, neoliberalism, and decoloniality. By including research produced from a variety of Latin American, North American, and other audiences, the volume incorporates trends in social history, cultural studies and discursive theory. It situates analytical categories of race and gender at the core of class formation. This volume seeks to initiate a critical and global conversation concerning the ways in which the analysis of the middle classes provides crucial re-readings of how Latin America, as a region, has historically been understood.

Download or read book La Ruta del Hechizo written by Ernesto Villavicencio and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-07-09 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portada trasera Nacemos genéticamente predispuestos a buscar la felicidad por todas partes y al final solo la obtenemos por cortos períodos de tiempo. ¿Cuál es la razón? Se debe a que desconocemos tres aspectos fundamentales que se esconden en los siguientes tres grandes interrogantes: ¿Es posible alcanzar la felicidad permanente? ¿Cuál es el camino para llegar a la felicidad permanente? ¿Para qué nos sirve ser feliz y cuáles son sus frutos? Luego de dedicarle tiempo a la reflexión sobre estos grandes interrogantes, nace el libro: "La Ruta del Hechizo" en el cual se plantea la Felicidad Filosófica, para que hagas de ella, una filosofía de vida y así disfrutes la felicidad permanente. Además, es la primera vez en la historia, que podemos medir la felicidad área por área, al igual que el sistema de emociones que le da vida y energía al alma. Este aporte es muy importante, porque nos permite enfocarnos en las áreas críticas de la Felicidad Filosófica y del conjunto de emociones, de tal manera que se nos haga más fácil rectificar en aquellos aspectos donde estamos fallando. Por la importancia de los planteamientos que aquí se hacen, este libro es como el teléfono celular, antes de que existiera, no era necesario, y hoy, quien no tenga uno, anda desconectado. Si eres mayor de 18 años, no dejes de leer este libro.

Book Palabras Para Rescatar

    Book Details:
  • Author : Manuel Rodr Guez Espejo
  • Publisher : Palibrio
  • Release : 2012-10
  • ISBN : 1463340087
  • Pages : 181 pages

Download or read book Palabras Para Rescatar written by Manuel Rodr Guez Espejo and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PA L A B R A S Q U E R E S C ATA R aporta 30 temas que pretenden hacer reflexionar al lector/a sobre otras tantas palabras que necesitan ser repensadas, porque la fe, como la vida misma, es continuo proceso de profundización. Lo más auténtico de nuestro ser no está en la superficie, ni siquiera en la inteligencia, sino en el descubrimiento de eso que llamamos "sabiduría divina", que se nos transmite en el contacto con la palabra, escuchada con el corazón y reflexionada también con un corazón sencillo, como de hijo que confía en su padre/madre. No todos los 30 capítulos tienen la misma longitud. Unos son más para ser leídos y otros, para ser trabajados. He buscado, en todos, palabras necesitadas de rescate, de actualización, palabras esenciales, como: voluntad, libertad, eucaristía, fe, perdón, Nueva Evangelización, familia, luz, oración, prueba, sufrimiento, servicio, vida cristiana, vida consagrada, acción de gracias, cuaresma, sanación, conversión, corrección fraterna, María, política y cristianismo... He tenido una doble intención: que pueda ser leído por adultos y jóvenes; y que los padres o educadores puedan usarlo con sus hijos o alumnos.

Book Intersected Identities

    Book Details:
  • Author : Erica Segre
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2007
  • ISBN : 9781845452919
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book Intersected Identities written by Erica Segre and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has always been an important visual element to the construction and questioning of national identity in post-Independence Mexico, though one that has not always been given its due, outside of the celebrated and much-studied muralists. Ranging from the early nineteenth century to the present - from the vogue for the picturesque, illustrated periodicals and the influential writings of Altamirano to a wealth of twentieth-century graphic artists, filmmakers and photographers - this book re-examines the complex variety of ways in which that visual element has operated. In particular, it looks at the ways in which discourses concerning ethnicity and cultural hybridity have been echoed and transformed in Mexican visual culture, resulting in fields of visual discourse which are eclectic and increasingly self-reflexive.

Morir no es un castigo, sino un llamado cuando nos toca el turno, porque todo lo que tiene un principio, tiene un final, todo lo que sube baja, lo que nace muere convirtiendo la vida en un maravilloso circulo.

Book Gated Communities

    Book Details:
  • Author : Samer Bagaeen
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2010-02-09
  • ISBN : 1136543708
  • Pages : 146 pages

Download or read book Gated Communities written by Samer Bagaeen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-02-09 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gated Communities provides a historic, socio-political and contemporary cultural perspective of gated communities. In doing so it offers a different lens through which to view the historical vernacular background of this now global phenomenon. The book presents a collection of new writing on the issue by an international and interdisciplinary group of contributors. The authors review current thinking on gated communities and consider the sustainability issues that these contemporary 'lifestyle' communities raise. The authors argue that there are links that can be drawn between the historic gated homesteads and cities, found in much of the world, and today's Western-style secure complexes. Global examples of gated communities, and their historical context, are presented throughout the book. The authors also comment on how sustainability issues have impacted on these communities. The book concludes by considering how the historic measures up with the contemporary in terms of sustainability function, and aesthetic.

Book Mathias Goeritz

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jennifer Josten
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2018-01-01
  • ISBN : 0300228600
  • Pages : 353 pages

Download or read book Mathias Goeritz written by Jennifer Josten and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major work in English on Mathias Goeritz (1915-1990), this book illuminates the artist's pivotal role within the landscape of twentieth-century modernism. Goeritz became recognized as an abstract sculptor after arriving in Mexico from Germany by way of Spain in 1949. His call to integrate abstract forms into civic and religious architecture, outlined in his "Emotional Architecture" manifesto, had a transformative impact on midcentury Mexican art and design. While best known for the experimental museum El Eco and his collaborations with the architect Luis Barrag n, including the brightly colored towers of Satellite City, Goeritz also shaped the Bauhaus-inspired curriculum at Guadalajara's School of Architecture and the iconic Cultural Program of Mexico City's 1968 Olympic Games. Josten addresses the Cold War implications of these and other initiatives that pitted Goeritz, an advocate of internationalist abstraction, against Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros, ardent defenders of the realist style that prevailed in official Mexican art during the postrevolutionary period. Exploring Goeritz's dialogues with leading figures among the Parisian and New York avant-gardes, such as Yves Klein and Philip Johnson, Josten shows how Goeritz's approach to modernism, which was highly attuned to politics and place, formed part of a global enterprise.

Book A City on a Lake

  • Author : Matthew Vitz
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2018-04-26
  • ISBN : 0822372096
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book A City on a Lake written by Matthew Vitz and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A City on a Lake Matthew Vitz tracks the environmental and political history of Mexico City and explains its transformation from a forested, water-rich environment into a smog-infested megacity plagued by environmental problems and social inequality. Vitz shows how Mexico City's unequal urbanization and environmental decline stemmed from numerous scientific and social disputes over water policy, housing, forestry, and sanitary engineering. From the prerevolutionary efforts to create a hygienic city supportive of capitalist growth, through revolutionary demands for a more democratic distribution of resources, to the mid-twentieth-century emergence of a technocratic bureaucracy that served the interests of urban elites, Mexico City's environmental history helps us better understand how urban power has been exercised, reproduced, and challenged throughout Latin America.

Book Waking from the Dream

    Book Details:
  • Author : Louise E. Walker
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2013-02-20
  • ISBN : 0804784574
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book Waking from the Dream written by Louise E. Walker and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-20 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the postwar boom began to dissipate in the late 1960s, Mexico's middle classes awoke to a new, economically terrifying world. And following massacres of students at peaceful protests in 1968 and 1971, one-party control of Mexican politics dissipated as well. The ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party struggled to recover its legitimacy, but instead saw its support begin to erode. In the following decades, Mexico's middle classes ended up shaping the history of economic and political crisis, facilitating the emergence of neo-liberalism and the transition to democracy. Waking from the Dream tells the story of this profound change from state-led development to neo-liberalism, and from a one-party state to electoral democracy. It describes the fraught history of these tectonic shifts, as politicians and citizens experimented with different strategies to end a series of crises. In the first study to dig deeply into the drama of the middle classes in this period, Walker shows how the most consequential struggles over Mexico's economy and political system occurred between the middle classes and the ruling party.

Book Gender  Sexuality and National Identity in the Lives of British Lifestyle Migrants in Spain

Download or read book Gender Sexuality and National Identity in the Lives of British Lifestyle Migrants in Spain written by Laura Dixon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-29 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an intimate look at the lives of British migrants in Sitges, an affluent coastal tourist town in Northern Spain and investigates ideas of gender, sexuality, and national identity as they are brought to life through the voices of British lifestyle migrants. Situating Sitges as a specifically affluent and "middle-class" location representing a particular form of "lifestyle migration," this rich and detailed study explores how the experiences of British migrants re-inscribe culturally specific understandings of the relationship between space, place, culture and identity. What ultimately emerges is an account of the complex structural constraints of identity, as British migrants find themselves stuck within the stereotype of badly-behaved Brits Abroad and entangled in highly conservative conceptualisations of gender and sexuality, that leave them unable to live the kind of cosmopolitan lifestyles that they so purposefully sought. This is a fascinating study suitable for researchers in gender and sexuality studies, tourism, sociology, and anthropology.

Book Episentido 5 Ultimo

Download or read book Episentido 5 Ultimo written by Hilario Casarin and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aunque la realidad es mucho más profunda. El potencial cuántico es lo que permite la interconexión y forma el sistema en el que se desenvuelve toda la situación conjunta. A partir de experimentos constatados en el subterfugio de las partículas elementales, se concluye tajantemente, que todo se halla interrelacionado con todo, que no hay nada separado de nada, que la filosofía nunca concluirá nada, y que todo lo que percibimos, más allá de lo que nos hagan creer nuestros sentidos y nuestra mente, no es sino la forma o expresión que nos remite a una realidad primordial que algunos no dudan en nombrar como conciencia. Una conciencia que se origina en el único cerebro que la naturaleza nos suministró con carencias, un gigantesco resorte que absorbe y disipa energía, y vibra en su propia frecuencia de ineficiencia, y para su completamiento, precisa con urgencia la intervención de la ciencia, que es la única que puede proveerlo, extranatura, de un episentido.
