Book Synopsis Harvesting Change by : Laura J. Enriquez
Download or read book Harvesting Change written by Laura J. Enriquez and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the principal aims of the Sandinista government in Nicaragua was to end the exploitation of the rural poor. But its attempts to promote balanced economic development and redistribute agricultural resources created labor shortages that threatened the country's economic lifeline. New employment opportunities created through agrarian reform upset the delicate balance developed in pre-revolution years to meet the labor requirements of Nicaragua's two key crops, cotton and coffee. Laura Enriquez studied this problem extensively while working in Nicaragua between 1982 and 1989, and in Harvesting Change she provides a unique analysis of the dilemmas of reform in an agrarian society. Enriquez describes the traditional labor relations of Nicaragua's agroexport production and outlines their breakdown as agrarian reform advanced. She also assesses the alternatives adopted by the Sandinista government as it attempted to address the crisis. Her book is based on participant observation and on formal and informal interviews with a broad cross section of people involved in agricultural production, including officials involved in agrarian reform, planning, and labor; producers; workers; and representatives from associations of growers, workers, and peasants. By presenting agrarian reform in its broad social context, Enriquez makes and important contribution to our understanding of the problems associated with the transition to socialism in the Third World.

Book excerpt: As a young girl growing up in Spain, Ana Larragoity Cubillas is powerfully drawn to Puerto Rico by the diaries of an ancestor who traveled there with Ponce de Leon. And in handsome twin brothers Ramon and Inocente—both in love with Ana—she finds a way to get there. Marrying Ramon at the age of eighteen, she travels across the ocean to Hacienda los Gemelos, a remote sugar plantation the brothers have inherited. But soon the Civil War erupts in the United States, and Ana finds her livelihood, and perhaps even her life, threatened by the very people on whose backs her wealth has been built: the hacienda’s slaves, whose richly drawn stories unfold alongside her own in this epic novel of love, discovery and adventure.
Book Synopsis Catastrophic Historicism by : Ronald Mendoza-de Jesús
Download or read book Catastrophic Historicism written by Ronald Mendoza-de Jesús and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catastrophic Historicism unsettles the historicist constitution of Julia de Burgos (1914–53), Puerto Rico’s most iconic writer—a critical task that necessitates redefining the concept of historicism. Through readings of Aristotle, Walter Benjamin, Jacques Derrida, Werner Hamacher, and Frank Ankersmit, Mendoza-de Jesús shows that historicism grounds historical objectivity in the historian’s capacity to compose totalizing narratives that domesticate the contingency of the past. While critiques of historicism as a realism leave untouched the sovereignty of the historian, the book insists that reading the text of history requires an attunement to danger—a modality that interrupts historicism by infusing the past with a contingency that evades total appropriation. After desedimenting the monumental tradition that has reduced de Burgos to a totemic figure, Catastrophic Historicism reads the poet’s first collection, Poema en 20 surcos (1938). Mendoza-de Jesús argues that the historicity of Poema crystallizes in the lyrical speaker’s self-institution as an embodied ipseity, which requires producing racialized/gendered allegorical figures—the bearers of an abject flesh—that lack any ontological resistance to modern alienation. Rather than treating de Burgos’s poetics of selfhood as the ideal image of Puerto Rican sovereignty, Mendoza-de Jesús endangers this idealization by drawing attention to the abjection that sustains our attachments to ipseity as the form of a truly sovereign life. In this way, Catastrophic Historicism not only resets the terms of ongoing critiques of historicism in the humanities—it also intervenes in Puerto Rican historicity for the sake of its transformation.

Book Synopsis Productividad by : Jorge Lopez Herrera
Download or read book Productividad written by Jorge Lopez Herrera and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lo valioso de la obra es que integra conocimientos para la superación individual y organizacional, de tal forma que las claves puedan ser asimiladas por gente sin preparación académica, y por directores corporativos o presidentes de cualquier ámbito. Destacando que el método de creación de la riqueza, es el mismo en cualquier parte del mundo, aquí el autor lo esclarece de forma simple y de aplicación inmediata; donde prevalece el significado del dinero, con su relación que tiene con la eficiencia y la productividad, para la competitividad en los campos; económico, social, y político. El autor plantea que los países de las economías emergentes para que puedan desarrollarse, tienen que llevar el progreso sostenido y sustentable a todos sus habitantes, como desarrollo social. Establece que es un error que los beneficios de la tecnología se limiten al campo industrial o empresarial, porque su campo es la civilización y la cultura. Y aclara porque los valores humanos y la ética, son los pilares de las sociedades, y en combinación con el desarrollo económico, generan la prosperidad de las naciones. E invita a los individuos y a las sociedades, a mejorar sus pensamientos, para decidir en que y, como quieren vivir y convivir, para realizar las acciones necesarias, porque de la forma de pensar germina la conducta del crecimiento integral continúo".

Book Synopsis American Sugar Kingdom by : César J. Ayala
Download or read book American Sugar Kingdom written by César J. Ayala and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-11-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engaging conventional arguments that the persistence of plantations is the cause of economic underdevelopment in the Caribbean, this book focuses on the discontinuities in the development of plantation economies in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic in the early twentieth century. Cesar Ayala analyzes and compares the explosive growth of sugar production in the three nations following the War of 1898--when the U.S. acquired Cuba and Puerto Rico--to show how closely the development of the Spanish Caribbean's modern economic and social class systems is linked to the history of the U.S. sugar industry during its greatest period of expansion and consolidation. Ayala examines patterns of investment and principal groups of investors, interactions between U.S. capitalists and native planters, contrasts between new and old regions of sugar monoculture, the historical formation of the working class on sugar plantations, and patterns of labor migration. In contrast to most studies of the Spanish Caribbean, which focus on only one country, his account places the history of U.S. colonialism in the region, and the history of plantation agriculture across the region, in comparative perspective.
