Book excerpt: The fall of Porfirio Diaz has traditionally been presented as a watershed between old and new: an old style repressive and conservative government, and the more democratic and representative system that flowered in the wake of the Mexican Revolution. Now this view is being challenged by a new generation of historians, who point out that Diaz originally rose to power in alliance with anti-conservative forces and was a modernising force as well as a dictator. Drawing together the threads of this revisionist reading of the Porfiriato, Garner reassesses a political career that spanned more than forty years, and examines the claims that post-revolutionary Mexico was not the break with the past that the revolutionary inheritors claimed.

This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Gabriel García Márquez’s novel One Hundred Years of Solitude, a character articulates the fascination goods, technology, and modernity held for many Latin Americans in the early twentieth century when he declares that “incredible things are happening in this world.” The modernity he marvels over is the new availability of cheap and useful goods. Steven Bunker’s study shows how goods and consumption embodied modernity in the time of Porfirio Díaz, how they provided proof to Mexicans that “incredible things are happening in this world.” In urban areas, and especially Mexico City, being a consumer increasingly defined what it meant to be Mexican. In an effort to reconstruct everyday life in Porfirian Mexico, Bunker surveys the institutions and discourses of consumption and explores how individuals and groups used the goods, practices, and spaces of urban consumer culture to construct meaning and identities in the rapidly evolving social and physical landscape of the capital city and beyond. Through case studies of tobacco marketing, department stores, advertising, shoplifting, and a famous jewelry robbery and homicide, he provides a colorful walking tour of daily life in Porfirian Mexico City. Emphasizing the widespread participation in this consumer culture, Bunker’s work overturns conventional wisdom that only the middle and upper classes participated in this culture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Porfirio Diaz: Seven Times President of Mexico Simply because he thought I had done something for his country in Mexico as I Saw It, and because I did not want to be commissioned or paid for my work - but undertook it as an independent person, and a friend. Simple reasons, but they won his heart, and I can only regret my own inability to draw his character more dramatically for the world. He deserves the pen of a John Morley, who has so graphically given us the characteristics and personality of a statesman in his Life of Gladstone, whom in some ways Diaz resembles. He te sembles him in his quiet simplicity, the charm of his home life, and his keen interest in many varied subjects. By the hour, day after day, during my visit, the President, Madame Diaz and I talked. They knew I could not remain long in Mexico - not six months as previously - and they gave much of their time to help me.
