Book El exilio espa  ol y su vida cotidiana en M  xico

Download or read book El exilio espa ol y su vida cotidiana en M xico written by Fernando Serrano Migallón and published by Bonilla Artigas Editores. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El exilio es uno de esos fenómenos históricos que afectan profundamente a quien lo padece: trastoca la vida personal, laboral, familiar, social y política, y cada individuo lo asimila de diferente forma. Por eso, hablar de la vida cotidiana en las circunstancias de un exilio es más complicado que en situaciones normales: todos asumen el rompimiento de forma única y todos enfrentan a su manera la inserción en un nuevo medio. Son muchas las dimensiones del exilio español que han sido objeto de investigación: sus orígenes; sus características ideológicas, políticas y sociales; su influencia, etcétera. Sobre todo, se han estudiado las vidas de los refugiados que integraron un grupo notable por sus logros intelectuales y políticos. Son innumerables los textos dedicados a los abogados, pintores, filósofos, músicos y escritores que conformaron de manera definida y señalada parte del exilio. Es necesario, sin embargo, recordar más ampliamente la vida cotidiana de quienes, sin destacar por alguna hazaña o circunstancia distintiva, formaron ese conjunto esencial y mayoritario del exilio; padres, madres, funcionarios públicos, obreros, campesinos, trabajadoras y militares que hicieron juntos una nueva vida común, padecieron los mismos sinsabores y fueron parte de una historia y un proceso de integración a la sociedad mexicana. En esta obra, Fernando Serrano Migallón realiza un análisis histórico de la vida cotidiana en donde se refiere a las relaciones humanas, su evolución, las formas culturales y los valores éticos que paulatinamente nacieron en este grupo.

  • Pages : 391 pages

Download or read book Picturing the Proletariat written by John Lear and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas McGann Memorial Prize, Rocky Mountain Council on Latin American Studies, 2017 Runner-up, Humanities Book Prize, Mexico Section of the Latin American Studies Association, 2018 In the wake of Mexico’s revolution, artists played a fundamental role in constructing a national identity centered on working people and were hailed for their contributions to modern art. Picturing the Proletariat examines three aspects of this artistic legacy: the parallel paths of organized labor and artists’ collectives, the relations among these groups and the state, and visual narratives of the worker. Showcasing forgotten works and neglected media, John Lear explores how artists and labor unions participated in a cycle of revolutionary transformation from 1908 through the presidency of Lázaro Cárdenas (1934–1940). Lear shows how middle-class artists, radicalized by the revolution and the Communist Party, fortified the legacy of the prerevolutionary print artisan José Guadalupe Posada by incorporating modernist, avant-garde, and nationalist elements in ways that supported and challenged unions and the state. By 1940, the state undermined the autonomy of radical artists and unions, while preserving the image of both as partners of the “institutionalized revolution.” This interdisciplinary book explores the gendered representations of workers; the interplay of prints, photographs, and murals in journals, in posters, and on walls; the role of labor leaders; and the discursive impact of the Spanish Civil War. It considers “los tres grandes”—Rivera, Siquieros, and Orozco—while featuring lesser-known artists and their collectives, including Saturnino Herrán, Leopoldo Méndez, Santos Balmori, and the League of Revolutionary Writers and Artists (LEAR). The result is a new perspective on the art and politics of the revolution.

Book European and Latin American Social Scientists as Refugees    migr  s and Return   Migrants

Download or read book European and Latin American Social Scientists as Refugees migr s and Return Migrants written by Ludger Pries and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-28 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1930s, thousands of social scientists fled the Nazi regime or other totalitarian European regimes, mainly towards the Americas. The New School for Social Research (NSSR) in New York City and El Colegio de México (Colmex) in Mexico City both were built based on receiving exiled academics from Europe. Comparing the first twenty years of these organizations, this book offers a deeper understanding of the corresponding institutional contexts and impacts of emigrated, exiled and refugeed academics. It analyses the ambiguities of scientists’ situations between emigration, return‐migration and transnational life projects and examines the corresponding dynamics of application, adaptation or amalgamation of (travelling) theories and methods these academics brought. Despite its institutional focus, it also deals with the broader context of forced migration of intellectuals and scientists in the second half of the last century in Europe and Latin America. In so doing, the book invites a deeper understanding of the challenges of forced migration for scholars in the 21st century.

  • ISBN : 1443864307

Download or read book Coming Home Vol 1 written by Sharif Gemie and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wars of the twentieth century uprooted people on a previously unimaginable scale to the extent that being a refugee became an increasingly widespread experience. With the arrival of refugees, governments of host countries had to mediate between divided national populations: some wished to welcome those arriving in search of refuge; others preferred a strategy of exclusion or even expulsion. At the same time, refugees had to manage conflicts of the self as they responded to the loss of nationhood, families, socio-political networks, material goods, and arguably also a sense of belonging or home. While return migration was usually perceived by governments and refugees alike as the best solution to the dilemmas of forced displacement, consensus about the timing and dynamics of how this would actually occur was very difficult to achieve. In practice, the return of refugees to their countries of origin rarely, if ever, produced a wholly satisfactory outcome. Conflicts clearly resulted in forced displacement, but it is equally true that forced displacement created conflicts. The complex inter-relationship of conflict, return migration and the sometimes chimerical, but still compelling, search for a sense of home is the central preoccupation of the contributors to the two volumes of the Coming Home? series. Scholars from history, literature, cultural studies and sociology explore the tensions between nation-states and migrants as they have anticipated, implemented or challenged the process of return migration during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. This book begins with Western Europe and progresses to Central and Eastern Europe from the period of the Spanish Civil War to the Cold War era, whilst the second volume – Coming home? Vol. 2: Conflict and Postcolonial Return Migration in the Context of France and North Africa – shifts the focus to the colonial and post-colonial framework of the French-North African nexus. What emerges from the two volumes of essays is that, as ambiguous and sometimes ambivalent as home could appear, it was nonetheless central to migrants’ preoccupations about returning.

Book Jesuit Student Groups  the Universidad Iberoamericana  and Political Resistance in Mexico  1913 1979

Download or read book Jesuit Student Groups the Universidad Iberoamericana and Political Resistance in Mexico 1913 1979 written by David Espinosa and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Mexico in the twentieth century is marked by conflict between church and state. This book focuses on the efforts of the Roman Catholic Church to influence Mexican society through Jesuit-led organizations such as the Mexican Catholic Youth Association, the National Catholic Student Union, and the Universidad Iberoamericana. Dedicated to the education and indoctrination of Mexico’s middle- and upper-class youth, these organizations were designed to promote conservative Catholic values. The author shows that they left a very different imprint on Mexican society, training a generation of activists who played important roles in politics and education. Ultimately, Espinosa shows, the social justice movement that grew out of Jesuit education fostered the leftist student movement of the 1960s that culminated in the Tlatelolco massacre of 1968. This study demonstrates the convergence of the Church, Mexico’s new business class, and the increasingly pro-capitalist PRI, the party that has ruled Mexico in recent decades. Espinosa’s archival research has led him to important but long-overlooked events like the student strike of 1944, the internal upheavals of the Church over liberation theology, and the complicated relations between the Jesuits and the conservative business class. His book offers vital new perspectives for scholars of education, politics, and religion in twentieth-century Mexico.

Book excerpt: "Two centuries of political motivated migrations rendered Mexico City as a place of asylum. This book tells the conditions in which, especially at two important moments -the rise of fascism in Spain and of military dictatorship in South America- Spanish, Jews, Poles, French, Argentinean, Chileans, Uruguayans, Guatemalans, had to migrate to Mexico City. In doing so, many of these groups transformed Mexican culture in such different fields as food, architecture, literature, science, and humanities. From the Lebanese constructions to the Japanese peanut, this book candidly explores through a fluid narrative, what the great tragedies of entire nations was to some and how they found in Mexico City a place to keep existing and to express their culture"--Verso cover English.

Download or read book Mexico on Film written by Armida De La Garza Author and published by Arena books. This book was released on 2006-06-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given its features as a modern mass medium and thus closely related to the nation, cinema has rightly been regarded as a privileged site for putting forward contesting representations of national identity, or in short, as a main area in which narratives of national identity are negotiated.What do films such as Amores Perros or Traffic say about Mexican identity? In what way could Bread and Roses or The Crime of Padre Amaro be part of its transformation? This book looks at representations of "e;Mexicanity"e; in Mexican cinema and also in Hollywood throughout the 20th century and beyond, arguing that the international context plays at least as important a role as ethnicity, religion and language in the construction of images of the national self, although it is seldom taken into account in theories of national identity.The Mexican film may reveal much about Mexican society, e.g., Traffic and the prevalence of drug trafficking, Bread and Roses, and the problems of migration; Amores Perros, in relation to metaphors of the nation as an extended family; The Crime of Father Amaro, in discussing the changing position of the Catholic Church; and Herod's Law, a scathing critique of the political system that dominated Mexico for the best past of the 20th century.Throughout, the book emphases the contingent nature of hegemonic representations, and our ongoing need to tell and to listen to - or indeed, view - stories that weave together a variety of strands to convincingly tell us who we are.
