Mexicanos: A History of Mexicans in the United States

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gonzales, Manuel G., PUBLISHER: Indiana University Press, MexicanosA History of Mexicans in the United StatesManuel G. Gonzales "A thoughtful, thorough survey of events in the history of Mexican-Americans, Chicanos, Mexicanos, Hispanos, and Latinos.... A lively narrative." -- Kirkus Reviews "Gonzales brings a bracing perspective to this epic story.... Exhaustive and destined for controversy." -- Publishers Weekly "The author is also especially good in weaving relevant historical developments in Mexico throughout the analysis.... A] readable, engaging, and lively synthesis." -- David G. Gutierrez, University of California, San Diego "The best short introduction yet to the history of Mexicans in the U.S." -- Arkansas Democrat Gazette Mexicanos tells the rich and vibrant story of Mexicans in the United States. Emerging from the ruins of Aztec civilization and from centuries of Spanish contact with indigenous people, Mexican culture followed the Spanish colonial frontier northward and put its distinctive mark on what became the southwestern United States. Shaped by their Indian and Spanish ancestors, deeply influenced by Catholicism, and tempered by an often difficult existence, Mexicans continue to play an important role in U.S. society, even as the dominant Anglo culture strives to assimilate them. Thorough and balanced, this book makes a valuable contribution to the understanding of theMexican population of the United States, a growing minority who will be a vital presence in 21st-century America. Manuel G. Gonzales is a professor of history at Diablo Valley College and coeditor (with Cynthia M. Gonzales) of En Aquel Entonces, forthcoming from Indiana University Press. His other publications include Andrea Costa and the Rise of Socialism in the Romagna and The Hispanic Elite of the Southwest.

The Paradox of Revolution: Labor, the State, and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Middlebrook, Kevin J. / Middlebrook, Kevinj, PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press, This important interdisciplinary work makes original contributions to the study of the state-society relations in Latin America and to the comparative analysis of labor's role in regime change. Middlebrook's theoretical framework identifies the principal dimensions of elite control over mass participation in postrevolutionary authoritarian regimes and highlights the most important aspects of Mexican authoritarianism. By demonstrating organized labor's central importance in the formation and evolution of Mexico's distinctive authoritarian regime, Middlebrook also lays the basis for a major reinterpretation of key features of twentieth-century Mexican politics. "Any scholar interested in Latin American social and political questions over the last one hundred years will sooner or later read this book. Mexicanists worth their salt will read it as soon as they can get it. The scholarship is outstandingly sound. It is rigorous in conceptualization and analysis, and in the historical parts as good as the best histories of Mexican labor and politics." -- John Womack Jr., Harvard University Buy Now
