Download or read book Argentina 1516 1987 written by David Rock and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1987-11-18 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: N this comprehensive history, updated to include the climactic events of the five years since the Falklands War, Professor Rock documents the early colonial history of Argentina, pointing to the colonial forms established during the Spanish conquest as the source for Argentina's continued reliance on foreign commercial and investment partnerships. The collapse of Argentina's close western European ties after World War II is thus seen as the underlying cause for her current economic and political crisis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A History of Argentina, originally published in Spanish in 2020, Ezequiel Adamovsky presents over five hundred years of Argentine economic, political, social, and cultural history. Adamovsky highlights the experiences of women, Indigenous communities, and other groups that have traditionally been left out of the historical archive. He focuses on harmful aspects of Spanish colonization such as gender subjugation, the violence enacted in the name of the Catholic Church, the role of the economy as it shifted from the encomienda system into modern industrialization, and the devastating effects of slavery, violence, and disease brought to the region by Spanish colonizers. Adamovsky also discusses Argentina’s independence and territorial consolidation, the first democratic elections in 1916, military coups, Peronism, democratization and the neoliberal reforms of the 1980s, and many other facets of Argentine life up to the 2019 presidential election. Concise, accessible, and comprehensive, A History of Argentina is an essential guide to this nation.

Download or read book Making Citizens in Argentina written by Benjamin Bryce and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Citizens in Argentina charts the evolving meanings of citizenship in Argentina from the 1880s to the 1980s. Against the backdrop of immigration, science, race, sport, populist rule, and dictatorship, the contributors analyze the power of the Argentine state and other social actors to set the boundaries of citizenship. They also address how Argentines contested the meanings of citizenship over time, and demonstrate how citizenship came to represent a great deal more than nationality or voting rights. In Argentina, it defined a person's relationships with, and expectations of, the state. Citizenship conditioned the rights and duties of Argentines and foreign nationals living in the country. Through the language of citizenship, Argentines explained to one another who belonged and who did not. In the cultural, moral, and social requirements of citizenship, groups with power often marginalized populations whose societal status was more tenuous. Making Citizens in Argentina also demonstrates how workers, politicians, elites, indigenous peoples, and others staked their own claims to citizenship.

Download or read book Transformations and Crisis of Liberalism in Argentina 1930 1955 written by Jorge A. Nállim and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nállim chronicles the decline of liberalism in Argentina during the volatile period between two military coups—the 1930 overthrow of Hipólito Yrigoyen and the deposing of Juan Perón in 1955. While historians have primarily focused on liberalism in economic or political contexts, Nállim instead documents a wide range of locations where liberalism was claimed and ultimately marginalized in the pursuit of individual agendas. Nállim shows how concepts of liberalism were espoused by various groups who “invented traditions” to legitimatize their methods of political, religious, class, intellectual, or cultural hegemony. In these deeply fractured and corrupt processes, liberalism lost political favor and alienated the public. These events also set the table for Peronism and stifled the future of progressive liberalism in Argentina. Nállim describes the main political parties of the period and deconstructs their liberal discourses. He also examines major cultural institutions and shows how each attached liberalism to their cause. Nállim compares and contrasts the events in Argentina to those in other Latin American nations and reveals their links to international developments. While critics have positioned the rhetoric of liberalism during this period as one of decadence or irrelevance, Nállim instead shows it to be a vital and complex factor in the metamorphosis of modern history in Argentina and Latin America as well.

Download or read book A History of Argentina in the Twentieth Century written by Luis Alberto Romero and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Argentina in the Twentieth Century, originally published in Buenos Aires in 1994, attained instant status as a classic. Written as an introductory text for university students and the general public, it is a profound reflection on the “Argentine dilemma” and the challenges that the country faces as it tries to rebuild democracy. Luis Alberto Romero brilliantly and painstakingly reconstructs and analyzes Argentina’s tortuous, often tragic modern history, from the “alluvial society” born of mass immigration, to the dramatic years of Juan and Eva Perón, to the recent period of military dictatorship. For this second English-language edition, Romero has written new chapters covering the Kirchner decade (2003–13), the upheavals surrounding the country’s 2001 default on its foreign debt, and the tumultuous years that followed as Argentina sought to reestablish a role in the global economy while securing democratic governance and social peace.

Download or read book Las multitudes argentinas written by José María Ramos Mejía and published by Linkgua. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las multitudes argentinas (1899), de José María Ramos Mejía, es un estudio de psicología colectiva influido por Psychologie des foules, de Le Bon. A partir de un sociologismo evolucionista, Ramos analiza la dimensión social y política de la inmigración masiva y la gobernabilidad de las masas, y aplica los preceptos positivistas a la historia social. "Las obras de Ramos Mejía (Argentina, 1842-1914), Juan Agustín García (Argentina, 1862-1923) y Jorge Basadre (Perú, 1903-1980) abrieron el camino hacia una nueva historia de Hispanoamérica, hacia una historia social. Tienen las virtudes y los defectos de toda obra fundacional: imprecisión terminológica, manejo de conceptos determinados por las corrientes de la época. Los historiadores que no las tuvieron en cuenta pasaron por alto una riqueza que a ellos mismos les hubiera correspondido rectificar, acrecentar y perfilar. Esa omisión es aún recuperable. Pero la recuperación solo es posible cuando se tenga una visión transparente de nuestro pasado cultural y de nuestra historia, es decir, una visión que no solo censure y que cuando lo haga no confunda la censura con la condena; una visión que no crea que la generosidad en la apreciación de una obra del pasado es necesariamente apología o ignorancia de la última moda. Las creaciones literarias y científicas son inevitablemente efímeras, pero el reconocimiento de la fugacidad no puede inducir a creer que lo que es pasado para una o dos generaciones carece de suscitaciones para las generaciones posteriores, de las que se supone que tienen una perspectiva más amplia." Rafael Gutiérrez Girardot
