Book excerpt: How did men become the stars of the Mexican intellectual scene? Dude Lit examines the tricks of the trade and reveals that sometimes literary genius rests on privileges that men extend one another and that women permit. The makings of the “best” writers have to do with superficial aspects, like conformist wardrobes and unsmiling expressions, and more complex techniques, such as friendship networks, prizewinners who become judges, dropouts who become teachers, and the key tactic of being allowed to shift roles from rule maker (the civilizado) to rule breaker (the bárbaro). Certain writing habits also predict success, with the “high and hard” category reserved for men’s writing and even film directing. In both film and literature, critically respected artwork by men tends to rely on obscenity interpreted as originality, negative topics viewed as serious, and coolly inarticulate narratives about bullying understood as maximum literary achievement. To build the case regarding “rebellion as conformity,” Dude Lit contemplates a wide set of examples while always returning to three figures, each born some two decades apart from the immediate predecessor: Juan Rulfo (with Pedro Páramo), José Emilio Pacheco (with Las batallas en el desierto), and Guillermo Fadanelli (with Mis mujeres muertas, as well as the range of his publications). Why do we believe Mexican men are competent performers of the role of intellectual? Dude Lit answers this question through a creative intersection of sources. Drawing on interviews, archival materials, and critical readings, this provocative book changes the conversation on literature and gendered performance.

Book excerpt: Global Media Giants takes an in-depth look at how media corporate power works globally, regionally, and nationally, investigating the ways in which the largest and most powerful media corporations in the world wield power. Case studies examine not only some of the largest media corporations (News Corp., The Microsoft Corporation) in terms of revenues, but also media corporations that hold considerable power within national, regional, or geolinguistic contexts (Televisa, The Bertelsmann Group, Sony Corporation). Each chapter approaches a different corporation through the lens of economy, politics, and culture, giving students and scholars a thoughtful and data-driven guide with which to interrogate contemporary media industry power.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States and Mexico trade many commodities, the most important of which are indispensable sources of energy—crude oil and agricultural labor. Mexican oil and workers provide cheap and reliable energy for the United States, while US petro dollars and agricultural jobs supply much-needed income for the Mexican economy. Mexico’s economic dependence on the United States is well-known, but The Politics of Dependency makes a compelling case that the United States is also economically dependent on Mexico. Expanding dependency theory beyond the traditional premise that weak countries are dominated by powerful ones, Martha Menchaca investigates how the United States and Mexico have developed an asymmetrical codependency that disproportionally benefits the United States. In particular, she analyzes how US foreign policy was designed to enable the US government to help shape the development of Mexico’s oil industry, as well as how migration from Mexico to the United States has been regulated by the US Congress to ensure that American farmers have sufficient labor. This unprecedented dual study of energy sectors that are usually examined in isolation reveals the extent to which the United States has become economically dependent on Mexico, even as it remains the dominant partner in the relationship. It also exposes the long-term effects of the agricultural policies of NAFTA, which led to the unemployment of millions of agricultural workers in Mexico, a large percentage of whom relocated to the United States.

Book excerpt: Hola, me gozo de estar entre sus manos; usted es la razon de mi existencia; pues tengo grandes cosas para contarte; te dire secretos de ese mundo que se mueve junto al natural y que son invisible, pues son espiritual. Todas las personas estan viviendo bajo la influencia de ese mundo invisible, pues estan siendo victimas de una usurpacion espiritual de que son objeto. Para comenzar, te cuento, que, dentro de mi, estan escritas declaraciones, de como esos espiritus se estan engendrando dentro de cada persona. Y haciendose pasar por las personas, y no solo eso, si no que ponen una personalidad en ella no deseada; y como sugestionan su mente para que obedezcan. Lo que quiero contarte es como a traves de las religiones Santeras, Espiritistas y Paleras, llegan hacerles creer a los hombres, mujeres, ninos y ancianos que tienen un nuevo padre y una madre. En dos palabras, voy a explicarte la vida secreta del mundo del ocultismo y muchas de sus ramificaciones. La humanidad necesita saber como atraen sobre poblaciones enteras, a un ejercito de maldad espiritual antes los ojos de todos sin que nadie se de cuenta. Dentro de las letras que tengo, te regalare con amor, como los pueblos puede liberarse de la muerte y de la esclavitud que producen esas fuerzas espirituales de maldad. Abreme y comprenderas las razones de mis estrofas. No queda mucho tiempo; las pruebas estan en los acontecimientos que se ven en todas partes, en este mundo que ha sido invadido. Solo Jesus puede poner la vida y salvacion. !Dios le bendiga!

Su padre, un marino de la Armada Real destinado al Virreinato de Nueva Granada, le pide que se reúna con él en Cartagena de Indias. La esperan una fortuna en cacaotales y un aristócrata venido a menos con quien casarse. Pero al desembarcar le informan que su padre fue asesinado y su prometido se casó con otra. Pronto Carina descubrirá los turbios negocios de su padre, el contrabando generalizado, el clima de guerra que se vive en todo el Caribe entre España e Inglaterra, la existencia de una hermanastra mulata perseguida por la Inquisición y los pasquines difamatorios que la han puesto en ridículo antes de llegar a la ciudad. Su camino se cruzará con el de Diego de Veranz, un malcriado aristócrata desterrado de la ciudad acusado de un crimen, que tras su fachada de bonvivant trabaja en secreto para la Corona. Oculto tras el disfraz de letrado, ayudará a la mujer a la que él mismo convirtió en el hazmerreír de toda Cartagena. Ambos buscan venganza, pero serán arrollados por un elemento imprevisto: la pasión.Las plantaciones de cacao, las misas negras en las ciénagas, el poder de la Inquisición y el lujo de la corte virreinal, el pirateo en Jamaica y Tortuga, el asalto inglés a Portobello y el ataque inglés a Cartagena -el mayor en la historia naval hasta el de Normandía doscientos años después-, son el escenario de esta heroica novela de amor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1803 in the colonial South American city of La Plata, Doña Martina Vilvado y Balverde presented herself to church and crown officials to denounce her husband of more than four years, Don Antonio Yta, as a “woman in disguise.” Forced to submit to a medical inspection that revealed a woman’s body, Don Antonio confessed to having been María Yta, but continued to assert his maleness and claimed to have a functional “member” that appeared, he said, when necessary. Passing to América is at once a historical biography and an in-depth examination of the sex/gender complex in an era before “gender” had been divorced from “sex.” The book presents readers with the original court docket, including Don Antonio’s extended confession, in which he tells his life story, and the equally extraordinary biographical sketch offered by Felipa Ybañez of her “son María,” both in English translation and the original Spanish. Thomas A. Abercrombie’s analysis not only grapples with how to understand the sex/gender system within the Spanish Atlantic empire at the turn of the nineteenth century but also explores what Antonio/María and contemporaries can teach us about the complexities of the relationship between sex and gender today. Passing to América brings to light a previously obscure case of gender transgression and puts Don Antonio’s life into its social and historical context in order to explore the meaning of “trans” identity in Spain and its American colonies. This accessible and intriguing study provides new insight into historical and contemporary gender construction that will interest students and scholars of gender studies and colonial Spanish literature and history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richer Than A Millionaire A Pathway to True Prosperity Having taught thousands of students over our careers, it is clear to the authors that many young people are clueless about their direction in life. Yes, they want a career, and yes, they want a good life, but knowing what to do is to many quite a challenge. Some say they want to be rich, but they really don't know what that means. In a sense, to paraphrase the Italian Renaissance polymath Leonardo da Vinci, many are like ships on the high seas of life without rudders! They have tremendous potential but no direction. In our book, Richer Than A Millionaire A Pathway to True Prosperity, we hope to inspire and to point all people (but especially young adults and concerned parents and grandparents who want sound advice for the next generation) in what we believe is the right direction. This direction has been reinforced by over forty years of academic and consulting research on what it really means to be rich. Our approach relies heavily on tried-and-true social science research methods of personal interviews and large-scale structured surveys. In other words, we have more than our personal opinions to offer. While there are many self-help books about wealth or happiness, we believe our book is unique in that it combines these topics. We show that it is possible to be modestly wealthy and happy. In order to reach true prosperity- health, happiness, and wealth, in all likelihood behavior modification will be required. And change is hard. Benjamin Franklin understood this, as he concluded in The Way to Wealth essay 250 years ago: the people heard the advice, agreed with it, and then practiced the contrary.

Book excerpt: The winner of the Man Booker Prize, this "expertly written, perfectly constructed" bestseller (The Guardian) is now a Starz miniseries. It is 1866, and Walter Moody has come to stake his claim in New Zealand's booming gold rush. On the stormy night of his arrival, he stumbles across a tense gathering of 12 local men who have met in secret to discuss a series of unexplained events: a wealthy man has vanished, a prostitute has tried to end her life, and an enormous cache of gold has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. Moody is soon drawn into a network of fates and fortunes that is as complex and exquisitely ornate as the night sky. Richly evoking a mid-nineteenth-century world of shipping, banking, and gold rush boom and bust, The Luminaries is at once a fiendishly clever ghost story, a gripping page-turner, and a thrilling novelistic achievement. It richly confirms that Eleanor Catton is one of the brightest stars in the international literary firmament.
