Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biggest pitched battle in Brazilian territory took place on February 20, 1827, about 13 km east of the current city of Rosário do Sul. Alvear (commander of the platine republican army) disguised his movements in order to make Barbacena (commander of the Brazilian imperial army) believe that he was chasing the rear of a retreating army, when in fact all his troops were close by. The battle lasted eleven hours and its end did not mean the end of the Cisplatine War. According to Brazilian historians, Passo do Rosário was an accumulated series of tremendous imperial errors, responsible for not having had a stupendous victory there .

Download or read book Historical Biogeography of Neotropical Freshwater Fishes written by James S. Albert and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-03-08 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fish faunas of continental South and Central America constitute one of the greatest concentrations of aquatic diversity on Earth, consisting of about 10 percent of all living vertebrate species. Historical Biogeography of Neotropical Freshwater Fishes explores the evolutionary origins of this unique ecosystem. The chapters address central themes in the study of tropical biodiversity: why is the Amazon basin home to so many distinct evolutionary lineages? What roles do ecological specialization, speciation, and extinction play in the formation of regional assemblages? How do dispersal barriers contribute to isolation and diversification? Focusing on whole faunas rather than individual taxonomic groups, this volume shows that the area’s high regional diversity is not the result of recent diversification in lowland tropical rainforests. Rather, it is the product of species accumulating over tens of millions of years and across a continental arena.

Download or read book Global Entangled Inequalities written by Elizabeth Jelin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents studies from across Latin America to take up the challenge of exploring the plurality of social inequalities from a global perspective. Accordingly, it identifies the structural forces of social inequalities on a world scale as they shape asymmetries observed in a wide array of phenomena, such as racial and gender inequality, urbanization, migration, commodity production, indigenous mobilization, ecological conflicts, and the "new middle class". A rich contribution to the study of the interconnections between the global social structure and multiple local and national hierarchies, Global Entangled Inequalities brings consistently together a variety of conceptual approaches, ranging from ethnographies to legal genealogies, and will therefore appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in social theory, power analysis, intersectionality studies, urban studies, and global social and environmental justice.

Download or read book Social Mobilization Global Capitalism and Struggles over Food written by Renata Motta and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the transformation of Brazil and Argentina into two of the world’s largest producers of genetically modified (GM) crops. Systematically comparing their stories in order to explain their paths, differences, ruptures and changes, the author reveals that the emergence of the two nations as leading producers of GM crops cannot be explained by technological superiority of biotechnology; rather, their trajectories are the results of political struggles surrounding agrarian development, in which social movements and the rural poor contested the advancement of biotechnologically-based agrarian models, but have been silenced, ignored, or demobilized by a network of actors in favour of GM crops. Based on rich interview and media material collected amongst activists, the author highlights the importance of political struggles over GM crops not only to debates on agrarian futures and food security, but also as illustrations of the challenges faced by contemporary democracies. An international comparative study, this book raises the question of how social mobilization and rights claims can counter the systemic imperatives of global capitalism and political interests, at a time when regional governments are reliant on commodity booms, whilst globally, governments are obliged to introduce programmes of austerity. As such it will appeal to scholars of sociology, political science and geography with interests in social movements, development, globalization, inequality and political economy.
