Download or read book Modernity for the Masses written by Ana María León and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the early twentieth century, waves of migration brought working-class people to the outskirts of Buenos Aires. This prompted a dilemma: Where should these restive populations be situated relative to the city’s spatial politics? Might housing serve as a tool to discipline their behavior? Enter Antonio Bonet, a Catalan architect inspired by the transatlantic modernist and surrealist movements. Ana María León follows Bonet's decades-long, state-backed quest to house Buenos Aires's diverse and fractious population. Working with totalitarian and populist regimes, Bonet developed three large-scale housing plans, each scuttled as a new government took over. Yet these incomplete plans—Bonet's dreams—teach us much about the relationship between modernism and state power. Modernity for the Masses finds in Bonet's projects the disconnect between modern architecture’s discourse of emancipation and the reality of its rationalizing control. Although he and his patrons constantly glorified the people and depicted them in housing plans, Bonet never consulted them. Instead he succumbed to official and elite fears of the people's latent political power. In careful readings of Bonet's work, León discovers the progressive erasure of surrealism's psychological sensitivity, replaced with an impulse, realized in modernist design, to contain the increasingly empowered population.

Download or read book The Bureaucrats of Buenos Aires 1769 1810 written by Susan Migden Socolow and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work Susan Socolow examines bureaucrats in early modern society by concentrating on those of Buenos Aires under the Bourbon reforms in the late colonial bureaucracy, Socolow studies the individuals who held positions in the colonial civil service—their recruitment, aspirations, job tenure, professional advancement, and economic position. The late eighteenth century was a critical time for the southernmost regions of Latin America, for in this period they became a separate political entity, the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata. Socolow's work, part of a continuing study of the political, economic, and social elites of the emerging city of Buenos Aires, here considers the bureaucracy put into place by the Bourbon reforms. The author examines the professional and personal circumstances of all bureaucrats, from the high-ranking heads of agencies to the more lowly clerks, contrasting their expectations and their actual experiences. She pays particular attention to their recruitment, promotion, salary, and retirement, as well as their marriage and kinship relationships in the local society.

This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las acciones de diversos grupos de trabajadoras y trabajadores argentinos que lograron darse una salida ante situaciones de profunda desesperación provocadas por el cierre, abandono o quiebra de las empresas donde habían trabajado durante años son tratados en este volumen. Sus páginas muestran -en forma ágil, dinámica y bien documentada- un fenómeno vigente que ha ensanchado el campo de lo posible y tiene mucho que decir sobre las acciones políticas y económicas de los trabajadores en un mundo en el que, una y otra vez, los pueblos se movilizan para protegerse de los choques económicos ante la insistente pretensión del sistema capitalista y sus defensores de separar la esfera económica de la sociedad.
