Book Synopsis Psychosocial and Cultural Research on Poverty in Mexico by : Cirilo Humberto García Cadena
Download or read book Psychosocial and Cultural Research on Poverty in Mexico written by Cirilo Humberto García Cadena and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new and timely book deals with the magnitude and the intensity of the poverty in Latin America, Mexico and the state of Nuevo Leon. The enormous and chronic social problems of poverty in 1970 struck approximately 40 per cent of the families of Latin America or 119 million people. In 1990, of 423,913,043 habitants of Latin America, 46 per cent were living in poverty, that is to say, 195 million people were suffering this calamity (CEPAL). According to the same CEPAL, in 2002 44 per cent of the population of Latin America was poor, whereas 19.40 per cent were living in extreme poverty, indigence or misery. Seen in another way, the poverty in Latin America increased in that period of 20 years, from 1970 to 1990, 38.97 per cent. At the moment, in Latin America there are 225 million poor people. This book is an essential reference to a problem which the world must, if for no other reason than necessity, deal with in a vigorous and just manner.
Book Synopsis Non-literary Fiction by : Esther Gabara
Download or read book Non-literary Fiction written by Esther Gabara and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores a new form of fiction that emerged in late-twentieth-century visual art across the Americas. With Non-literary Fiction, Esther Gabara examines how contemporary art produced across the Americas has reacted to the rising tide of neoliberal regimes, focusing on the crucial role of fiction in daily politics. Gabara argues that these fictions depart from familiar literary narrative structures and emerge in the new mediums and practices that have revolutionized contemporary art. Each chapter details how fiction is created through visual art forms—in performance and body art, posters, mail art, found objects, and installations. For Gabara, these fictions comprise a type of art that asks viewers to collaborate in the creation of the work and helps them to withstand the brutal restrictions imposed by dominant neoliberal regimes. During repressive regimes of the 1960s and 1970s and free trade agreements of the 1990s, artists and critics consistently said no to economic privatization, political deregulation, and reactionary social logic as they rejected inherited notions of visual, literary, and political representation. Through close analyses of artworks and writings by leading figures of these two generations, including Indigenous thinkers, Gabara shows how negation allows for the creation of fiction outside textual forms of literature.

Book Synopsis Autoconstrucción by : Abraham Cruzvillegas
Download or read book Autoconstrucción written by Abraham Cruzvillegas and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AutoconstrucciÃ[3]n accompanies Cruzvillegas' exhibition at CCA Glasgow, the result of a six month joint residency at CCA and Cove Park by the Mexican artist. In the exhibition, the artist charts the evolution of his family's house and finds, in its making, the roots of his current sculptural practice. Cruzvillegas was brought up in an area of Mexico City called Ajusco. Driven by necessity the community was built through collaboration which bred a system of social and political solidarity. It was a culture of hybridity and the model of construction became intertwined with the model for living. For Abraham Cruzvillegas that context provided a metaphor for the self-conscious process of creating an identity and methodology for the construction of his artistic practice. In AutoconstrucciÃ[3]n he draws together a diverse series of elements including an exhibition, a series of musical performances, a ride across a city and a book, and through all of this work, it is the concept of sharing that is a key element, framed by a makeshift DIY aesthetic. English and Spanish text.

Download or read book Razia written by Abraham Cruzvillegas and published by Publicaciones Malaletra Internacional. This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La idea central del libro proviene de tomar la letra de una de las canciones del disco "Autoconstrucción", que escribió Cruzvillegas y grabó con músicos de Glasgow en 2008. Las canciones aluden al lugar donde creció, la colonia Ajusco al sur de la Ciudad de México, a su entorno y a sus diferentes problemas sociales y políticos. "Razia", título de la canción que eligieron, habla de un desalojo violento y de la comunidad que se une para ayudar a una familia que se encuentra en problemas. Cada letra de las palabras que componen la canción fue impresa en la Imprenta Móvil de Nuria Montiel, que retoma la naturaleza contestataria de la gráfica y la palabra impresa. Así pues, cada letra impresa de Razia fue fotocopiada para formar -línea por línea- la canción completa. Luego las fotocopias fueron colocadas temporalmente en las fachadas de algunas de las casas de la colonia, operando en la vía pública como memoria y huella de las historias que se pueden contar allá. Ramiro Chaves registró con su cámara digital la acción, mostrando así el resultado del trabajo en conjunto de los tres artistas. // The central idea of the book comes from taking the lyrics from the songs on the "Autoconstrucción" record that allude to the place where Cruzvillegas grew up, the Ajusco neighborhood in the south of Mexico City, its surroundings and various social and political problems. "Razia", the title of the song they selected, speaks of an eviction and of the community pulling together to help a family in trouble. Every letter of every word in the song was printed on the Imprenta Móvil (Mobile Press), Nuria Montiel's project. Thereby, the printed lyrics of Razia were photocopied to form—line by line—the complete song. Then the photocopies were temporarily placed on the façades of some of the houses of the neighborhood, serving as reminder and testimony of the many stories that can be told. Ramiro Chaves recorded the result of the action with his digital camera.

Download or read book Life in Debt written by Clara Han and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chile is widely known as the first experiment in neoliberalism in Latin America, carried out and made possible through state violence. Since the beginning of the transition in 1990, the state has pursued a national project of reconciliation construed as debts owed to the population. The state owed a "social debt" to the poor accrued through inequalities generated by economic liberalization, while society owed a "moral debt" to the victims of human rights violations. Life in Debt invites us into lives and world of a poor urban neighborhood in Santiago. Tracing relations and lives between 1999 and 2010, Clara Han explores how the moral and political subjects imagined and asserted by poverty and mental health policies and reparations for human rights violations are refracted through relational modes and their boundaries. Attending to intimate scenes and neighborhood life, Han reveals the force of relations in the making of selves in a world in which unstable work patterns, illness, and pervasive economic indebtedness are aspects of everyday life. Lucidly written, Life in Debt provides a unique meditation on both the past inhabiting actual life conditions but also on the difficulties of obligation and achievements of responsiveness.

Book excerpt: The UN currently estimates that there are about 837 million urban slum dwellers worldwide, and this figure is likely to rise to 1.5 billion by 2020 if current trends are not reversed. This book offers five geographically and institutionally diverse case studies from Latin America, where some of the longest-running and most successful programmes in this field have been conducted. These programmes, involving a wide variety of funding arrangements and agencies, demonstrate the positive impact that community participation and people-oriented service solutions can have on slum upgrading efforts in low income urban areas.
