Описание: Examines a critical part of Atlantic trade for a neglected corner of the Spanish Empire.

Jesse Cromwell paints a vivid picture of the lives of littoral peoples who normalized their subversions of imperial law.
Venezuela's most prominent community television station, Catia TVe, was launched in 2000 by activists from the barrios of Caracas. Run on the principle that state resources should serve as a weapon of the poor to advance revolutionary social change, the station covered everything from Hugo Chávez’s speeches to barrio residents' complaints about bureaucratic mismanagement. In Channeling the State, Naomi Schiller explores how and why Catia TVe's founders embraced alliances with Venezuelan state officials and institutions. Drawing on long-term ethnographic research among the station's participants, Schiller shows how community television production created unique openings for Caracas's urban poor to embrace the state as a collective process with transformative potential. Rather than an unchangeable entity built for the exercise of elite power, the state emerges in Schiller's analysis as an uneven, variable process and a contentious terrain where institutions are continuously made and remade. In Venezuela under Chávez, media activists from poor communities did not assert their autonomy from the state but rather forged ties with the middle class to question whose state they were constructing and who it represented.
Описание: A collective biography of the veterans of the battle of El Santuario (1829), this book uses the untold stories of ordinary lives to examine the history of the imperial conflicts that shaped politics and society in Colombia and Venezuela after independence from colonial rule.

Автор: Marsh Название: Hugo Ch?vez, Al? Primera and Venezuela ISBN: 1137579676 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781137579676 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 12577.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Unlike much of the literature on Venezuela in the Ch?vez period, this book shifts focus away from 'top down' perspectives to examine how Venezuelan folksinger Al? Primera (1942-1985) became intertwined with Venezuelan politics, both during his lifetime and posthumously. Al?’s ‘Necessary Songs’ offered cultural resources that enabled Ch?vez to connect with pre-existing patterns of grassroots activism in ways that resonated deeply with the poor and marginalised masses. Official support for Al?’s legacy led the songs to be used in new ways in the Ch?vez period, as Venezuelans actively engaged with them to redefine themselves in relation to the state and to reach new understandings of their place within a changed society. This book is essential reading not only for those interested in popular music and politics, but for all those seeking to better understand how Ch?vez was able to successfully identify himself so profoundly with the Venezuelan masses, and they with him.
