Free Download Deborah J. Yashar, "Contesting Citizenship in Latin America: The Rise of Indigenous Movements and the Postliberal Challenge"
English | 2005 | pages: 388 | ISBN: 0521827469, 0521534801 | PDF | 2,7 mb
Deborah Yashar analyzes the contemporary and uneven emergence of Latin American indigenous movements-addressing both why indigenous identities have become politically salient in the contemporary period and why they have translated into significant political organizations in some places and not others. She argues that ethnic politics can best be explained through a comparative historical approach that analyzes three factors: changing citizenship regimes, social networks, and political associational space-providing insight into the fragility and unevenness of Latin America’s third wave democracies.

English | ISBN: 0199860351 | 2020 | 632 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
By 2025, Latin America’s population of observant Christians will be the largest in the world. Nonetheless, studies examining the exponential growth of global Christianity tend to overlook this region, focusing instead on Africa and Asia. Research on Christianity in Latin America provides a core point of departure for understanding the growth and development of Christianity in the "Global South."

Free Download The Making of Latin London: Salsa Music, Place and Identity By Patria Román-Velázquez
1999 | 176 Pages | ISBN: 1840148810 | PDF | 10 MB
This book focuses on how Latin American people and cultural practices have moved from one continent to another, and specifically to London. How do Latin Americans experience such a process and what part do different people play in the re-making of Latin identities in the neighbourhoods, parks, bars and dance clubs of London? Through a critical engagement with theories of globalization, the geography of power, cultural identity and the transformation of places, the book explores how the formation of Latin identities is directly related to wider social, economic and political processes. Drawing on the voices of migrant peoples, community activists, shop owners, sports organizers, club owners, dancers, dance teachers, musicians and disc jockeys, the book argues that the micro movements of people – through a shopping mall or across a dance floor in a club – are directly connected to global processes involving the regulated movement of citizens, sounds and images across national boundaries and through cities.

Free Download The Cambridge Anthology of British Medieval Latin: Volume 1, 450-1066
English | 2024 | ISBN: 110718651X | 505 Pages | PDF | 6 MB
This anthology presents in two volumes a series of Latin texts (with English translation) produced in Britain during the period AD 450-1500. Excerpts are taken from Bede and other historians, from the letters of women written from their monasteries, from famous documents such as Domesday Book and Magna Carta, and from accounts and legal documents, all revealing the lives of individuals at home and on their travels across Britain and beyond. It offers an insight into Latin writings on many subjects, showing the important role of Latin in the multilingual society of medieval Britain, in which Latin was the primary language of written communication and record and also developed, particularly after the Norman Conquest, through mutual influence with English and French. The thorough introductions to each volume provide a broad overview of the linguistic and cultural background, while the individual texts are placed in their social, historical and linguistic context.

Free Download The Cambridge Critical Guide to Latin Literature
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1108421083 | 947 Pages | PDF | 9.4 MB
The Cambridge Critical Guide to Latin Literature offers a critical overview of work on Latin literature. Where are we? How did we get here? Where to next? Fifteen commissioned chapters, along with an extensive introduction and Mary Beard’s postscript, approach these questions from a range of angles. They aim not to codify the field, but to give snapshots of the discipline from different perspectives, and to offer provocations for future development. The Critical Guide aims to stimulate reflection on how we engage with Latin literature. Texts, tools and territories are the three areas of focus. The Guide situates the study of classical Latin literature within its global context from late antiquity to Neo-Latin, moving away from an exclusive focus on the pre-200 CE corpus. It recalibrates links with adjoining disciplines (history, philosophy, material culture, linguistics, political thought, Greek), and takes a fresh look at key tools (editing, reception, intertextuality, theory).
