Описание:
Despite the Mexican government’s projected image of prosperity and modernity in the years following World War II, workers who felt that Mexico’s progress had come at their expense became increasingly discontented. From 1948 to 1958, unelected and often corrupt officials of STFRM, the railroad workers’ union, collaborated with the ruling Institutionalized Revolutionary Party (PRI) to freeze wages for the rank and file. In response, members of STFRM staged a series of labor strikes in 1958 and 1959 that inspired a nationwide working-class movement. The Mexican army crushed the last strike on March 26, 1959, and union members discovered that in the context of the Cold War, exercising their constitutional right to organize and strike appeared radical, even subversive.
Railroad Radicals in Cold War Mexico examines a pivotal moment in post–World War II Mexican history. The railroad movement reflected the contested process of postwar modernization, which began with workers demanding higher wages at the end of World War II and culminated in the railway strikes of the 1950s, a bold challenge to PRI rule. In addition, Robert F. Alegre gives the wives of the railroad workers a narrative place in this history by incorporating issues of gender identity in his analysis.

Описание: This is a study of life in two radically different sites in colonial Mexico: Mexico City, the focus of Spanish colonization, and Xaltocan, an indigenous town. Topics include the adoption of foreign material culture by Spaniards and by indigenous people, technological change, food, clothing, and patterns of change after the Spanish conquest.
Описание: Modern Mexico derives many symbols of identity and heritage from its Aztec legacy. This book demonstrates that such emotional links to the native past originated in part among colonial-era indigenous leaders who adapted ancestral memories following the Spanish conquest, eventually enabling American-born Spaniards to likewise identify with this ancient legacy.

Описание: The history of emotions is a new approach to social history, and this book is the first in English to systematically examine emotions in Colonial Mexico. The essays collected here chart daily life through the study of sex and marriage, love, lust and jealousy, civic rituals and preaching, gambling and leisure, prayer and penance, and protest and rebellion.
The plight of the urban poor in Mexico has changed little since World War II, despite the country's impressive rate of economic growth. Susan Eckstein considers how market forces and state policies that were ostensibly designed to help the poor have served to maintain their poverty. She draws on intensive research in a center city slum, a squatter settlement, and a low-cost housing development.
