Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¡Viva la historieta! critically examines the participation of Mexican comic books in the continuing debate over the character and consequences of globalization in Mexico. The focus of the book is on graphic narratives produced by and for Mexicans in the period following the 1994 implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), an economic accord that institutionalized the free-market vision of relationships among the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Eight chapters cover a broad range of contemporary Mexican comics, including works of propaganda, romance and adventure, graphic novels, a corporate “brand” series, didactic single-issue books, and a superhero parody series. Each chapter offers an examination of the ways in which specific comics or comic book series represent Mexico's national identity, the US's influence, and globalization's effects on technology and economics since the passage of NAFTA. Through careful attention to how recent Mexican comics portray a changing nation, author Bruce Campbell reveals a contentious range of perspectives on the problems and promises of globalization. At the same time, Campbell argues that the contrasting views of globalization that circulate widely in Mexican historietas reflect a still unsettled relationship between Mexico and its superpower neighbor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2023 Ray and Pat Browne Award for Best Edited Collection in Popular and American Culture One of the greatest untold stories about the globalization of the Western is the key role of comics. Few American cultural exports have been as successful globally as the Western, a phenomenon commonly attributed to the widespread circulation of fiction, film, and television. The Comic Book Western centers comics in the Western's international success. Even as readers consumed translations of American comic book Westerns, they fell in love with local ones that became national or international sensations. These essays reveal the unexpected cross-pollinations that allowed the Western to emerge from and speak to a wide range of historical and cultural contexts, including Spanish and Italian fascism, Polish historical memory, the ideology of shōjo manga from Japan, British post-apocalypticism and the gothic, race and identity in Canada, Mexican gender politics, French critiques of manifest destiny, and gaucho nationalism in Argentina. The vibrant themes uncovered in The Comic Book Western teach us that international comic book Westerns are not hollow imitations but complex and aesthetically powerful statements about identity, culture, and politics.

Book excerpt: Mucho se ha escrito de la Escuela Náutica de Mazatlán y referente al egregio marino "Capitán de Altura Antonio Gómez Maqueo"; un poco aquí, otro tanto más allá. La investigación del Ing. Julio Alfonso Ruiz Ramírez contabiliza abundantes horas en entrevistas con marinos de todas las edades y estratos sociales, revisión de viejas y gastadas hojas en el archivo municipal, registros de las sesiones del cabildo de antaño en busca de pistas sobre fechas, y búsquedas que dieran mayor luz a la fundación de la escuela o sobre el siempre evasivo pasado del capitán. Su pesquisa incluyó visitas a los cementerios, incluso viajes: a México y al lugar de nacimiento del marino, oriundo de Orizaba; todo ello para perfilar mejor sus rasgos y personalidad. Hurgar en el pasado es difícil, y más cuando los coterráneos de la persona investigada pasaron a mejor vida. El trabajo que emprendió Julio es con la finalidad de dejar la menor cantidad de lagunas posibles y poder así sacar a relucir los pormenores de su amada escuela y del marino que tanto tuvo que ver en su reapertura y fortalecimiento. Su compendio es un registro ameno cuya intención es la de poder llegar a los lectores interesados en descubrir las fases de la fundación de su alma mater y de conocer mejor a la persona que la consolidó. Es un libro valiosoque merece ser escudriñado cuantas veces sea necesario. Ing. Jorge A. Holcombe Isunza

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the historical and cultural significance of comics in languages other than English, examining the geographic and linguistic spheres which these comics inhabit and their contributions to comic studies and academia. The volume brings together texts across a wide range of genres, styles, and geographic locations, including the Netherlands, Colombia, Greece, Mexico, Poland, Finland, Portugal, Ireland, and the Czech Republic, among others. These works have remained out of reach for speakers of languages other than the original and do not receive the scholarly attention they deserve due to their lack of English translations. This book highlights the richness and diversity these works add to the corpus of comic art and comic studies that Anglophone comics scholars can access to broaden the collective perspective of the field and forge links across regions, genres, and comic traditions. Part of the Global Perspectives in Comics Studies series, this volume spans continents and languages. It will be of interest to researchers and students of comics studies, literature, cultural studies, popular culture, art and design, illustration, history, film studies, and sociology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology hosts a collection of essays examining the role of comics as portals for historical and academic content, while keeping the approach on an international market versus the American one. Few resources currently exist showing the cross-disciplinary aspects of comics. Some of the chapters examine the use of Wonder Woman during World War II, the development and culture of French comics, and theories of Locke and Hobbs in regards to the state of nature and the bonds of community. More so, the continual use of comics for the retelling of classic tales and current events demonstrates that the genre has long passed the phase of for children’s eyes only. Additionally, this anthology also weaves graphic novels into the dialogue with comics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across generations and genres, comics have imagined different views of the future, from unattainable utopias to worrisome dystopias. These presaging narratives can be read as reflections of their authors' (and readers') hopes, fears and beliefs about the present. This collection of new essays explores the creative processes in comics production that bring plausible futures to the page. The contributors investigate portrayals in different stylistic traditions--manga, bande desinees--from a variety of theoretical perspectives. The picture that emerges documents the elaborate storylines and complex universes comics creators have been crafting for decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immigrants and Comics is an interdisciplinary, themed anthology that focuses on how comics have played a crucial role in representing, constructing, and reifying the immigrant subject and the immigrant experience in popular global culture of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Nhora Lucía Serrano and a diverse group of contributors examine immigrant experience as they navigate new socio-political milieux in cartoons, comics, and graphic novels across cultures and time periods. They interrogate how immigration is portrayed in comics and how the ‘immigrant’ was an indispensable and vital trope to the development of the comics medium in the twentieth century. At the heart of the book‘s interdisciplinary nexus is a critical framework steeped in the ideas of remembrance and commemoration, what Pierre Nora calls lieux de mémoire. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in Visual Studies, Comparative Literature, English, Ethnic Studies, Francophone Studies, American Studies, Hispanic Studies, art history, and museum studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wave of revolution swept across the United States in the sixties and the seventies. And across California, Cesar Chavez sparked the Chicano civil rights movement in the barrio, giving prominence to new leaders, new voices, and new demands for freedom from injustice and oppression. For young Javier Gomez, this battle cry would be the beginning of a fight to stand up to injustice in his home of East LA. In Mr. Gs Battle Cry!, author and civil rights activist Javier Gomez chronicles his march into the streets of East LA and beyond as he and his Chicano and Chicana brothers and sisters take up the cause of the civil rights movement and create hope for a better futureagainst great odds. Gomez also explores the history of his people, showing how their culture and their spirit was renewed during this historic era of equality and justice. Javier Gomez was inspired by the Chicano civil rights movement, and today his battle cry endures. Mr. Gs Battle Cry! gives voice to the enlightened individuals who fought, side by side, at protests, and in the streets, against the institutions of injustice that sought to keep the people silent. And today, this cultural revolution has left a living legacy of change, progress, and hope.

Book excerpt: Este libro es una publicación estimulante e innovadora que explora diez grandes obras de pensadores y oradores reconocidos, con un impacto intelectual, práctico y global. Estas obras son en su mayoría un precedente significativo de las relaciones públicas en tanto que expresión o profesión, pero todas ellas se relacionan sin ninguna duda con la fuerza de la comunicación pública organizada y el poder ligado a aquellos que gestionan el proceso.Estas obras, estimulantes y diversas, se escribieron con el objetivo de abordar algunos de los grandes retos de la sociedad. Aunque tradicionalmente no han sido el foco de investigación de las relaciones públicas, todas ellas han tenido un impacto global como comunicadoras y también como base para ciertas ideas fundamentales, desde la espiritualidad hasta la guerra, la economía y la justicia social. Cada una de estas obras trata las implicaciones de la comunicación estructurada entre las organizaciones y las sociedades, y escudriña o aboga por las actividades que ahora son centrales para las relaciones públicas y su moralidad. Estas obras no pudieron ignorar las relaciones públicas y las relaciones públicas no pueden ignorarlas ahora. Este libro constituirá una lectura esencial para aquellos profesores y estudiantes de las relaciones públicas y la comunicación, y también será de interés para su estudio en otras disciplinas como la Sociología, la Literatura, la Filosofía y la Historia

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1970s, a group of Colombian intellectuals led by the pioneering sociologist Orlando Fals Borda created a research-activist collective called La Rosca de Investigación y Acción Social (Circle of Research and Social Action). Combining sociological and historical research with a firm commitment to grassroots social movements, Fals Borda and his colleagues collaborated with indigenous and peasant organizations throughout Colombia. In Cowards Don’t Make History Joanne Rappaport examines the development of participatory action research on the Caribbean coast, highlighting Fals Borda’s rejection of traditional positivist research frameworks in favor of sharing his own authority as a researcher with peasant activists. Fals Borda and his colleagues inserted themselves as researcher-activists into the activities of the National Association of Peasant Users, coordinated research priorities with its leaders, studied the history of peasant struggles, and, in collaboration with peasant researchers, prepared accessible materials for an organizational readership, thereby transforming research into a political organizing tool. Rappaport shows how the fundamental concepts of participatory action research as they were framed by Fals Borda continue to be relevant to engaged social scientists and other researchers in Latin America and beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secretos de los jesuitas no quieren a los cristianos a conocer. Desde Europa escuchamos una voz del mundo secular que documenta, históricamente, la misma información que nos fue dada por ex sacerdotes. Edmond Paris expone con valentía la intervención del Vaticano en la política y en las intrigas mundiales, además de fomentar guerras a través de la historia. Se ve, sin duda alguna, que la institución católica romana no es una iglesia cristiana y jamás lo fue. Proféticamente, es la ramera de la que habla Apocalipsis 17—18. El pobre pueblo católico romano ha sido traicionado por ella y está enfrentando una tragedia espiritual. Quiera Dios usar este libro para ayudarle a hacer un nuevo compromiso, de guiar a los amados católicos romanos al Cristo vivo y verdadero de la Biblia, de modo que sus almas puedan ser salvadas. El autor Edmond París explica porqué él escribió este libro... "La gente prácticamente desconoce la enorme responsabilidad del Vaticano y de los jesuitas en el inicio de las dos guerras mundiales; esto, en parte, se debió a los grandes recursos financieros que el Vaticano y los jesuitas tenían a su disposición, dándoles poder en muchos ámbitos, especialmente después del último conflicto. "En realidad, su papel en aquellos trágicos eventos casi no se ha mencionado sino hasta estos tiempos, excepto por apologistas deseosos de encubrirlo. A fin de rectificar esto y dar a conocer los hechos, presentamos en este libro y en otros la actividad política del Vaticano durante la época contemporánea, la cual tiene que ver también con los jesuitas. "Este estudio se basa en irrefutables documentos de archivo, en publicaciones de conocidos políticos, diplomáticos, embajadores y escritores eminentes —en su mayoría, católicos—, legalizadas incluso por el imprimátur."
