“Nunca más un México sin nosotros”
“Nunca más un México sin nosotros” es un poderoso grito de inclusión, no de separación, y expresa la voluntad de disputar el Estado-Nación mexicana no de abandonarlo o siquiera superarlo. En un momento en que el Consenso de Washington basado en la “globalización” del “libre mercado” era la ideología dominante, los rebeldes del sur de México recordaban a la humanidad que la Nación y el Estado eran todavía elementos centrales en la lucha por la jus…
Interlude I
Inspired by “Phantasms in the Halls,” we return to the original call and the violent chaos of the present to extend fugitivity to where it has always been, the university and city, and to consider the settler colonial present. The colonist, the enslaver, the manager, the police have settled into the banalities of work and life such that it may be easy for some to claim innocence when in practice an incommensurable relationality offers the more ju…
Interlude II
In this interlude, we would like to reflect briefly on the first two essays in the issue by commenting on the settler present. We make a brief comment on the fungibility of trauma and the relationship between it and memory. We build on these concepts to join the other authors in this issue who describe how they have begun a process of dissettling the institutions of public learning to prepare for the sets of possibilities available to us in the d…
Prelude
This small prelude to our themed issue offers some guidance for readers on how to read the essays and contributions alongside one another. Our hope is that readers will engage with this issue on their terms
Wild Cosmopolitanism, Wily Oscillations in Artificial Neighborhoods
The unbuilt city of Reno
This essay suggests that colleges and universities incorporate settler technologies, as discursive, mathematical, spatial tools, that further settler colonialism in our economic moment. These tools become advantageous when the territories of the campus and the city desire to merge residential and economic interests. My writing derives from a plenary address at the 2019 Rhetoric Society of America Project in Power, Place, and Publics at the Univer…
Mexico
At first glance, Mexico would seem to be a lost cause for the Left. After the failure of the “Washington Consensus” to bring peace and prosperity to Latin America in the 1990s, almost every country
Instituciones electorales, derecho a la información y medios de comunicación durante las campañas presidenciales de 2012
This paper assesses the performance of Mexican electoral authorities during the 2012 presidential campaigns concerning citizens’ right of information. By means of a theoretical review of the concepts of freedom of speech and right of information a case is made for the necessary complementarity and interdependence of both concepts. The paper explores the approach that electoral authorities adopted on three different spheres, namely, the “suggested…

The effect of placement instability on adopted children's inhibitory control abilities and oppositional behavior
This study assessed relations among placement instability, inhibitory control, and caregiver-rated child behavior. The sample included 33 adopted children who had experienced placement instability, 42 adopted children who had experienced 1 stable placement, and 27 children never placed in foster care. Five- and 6-year-old children completed the day-night task, which requires children to inhibit a prepotent response, and a control task that presen…
Developing Evidence‐Based Interventions for Foster Children
Children who enter foster care have usually experienced maltreatment as well as disruptions in relationships with primary caregivers. These children are at risk for a host of problematic outcomes. However, there are few evidence‐based interventions that target foster children. This article presents preliminary data testing the effectiveness of an intervention, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch‐up, to target relationship formation in young childr…
Democratización
Este artículo revisa en forma exhaustiva a los autores y las escuelas de pensamiento más importantes en el área interdisciplinaria de estudios sobre la democratización. Comienza con una discusión de los textos clásicos que dominaron el debate durante las décadas de 1960 (Lipset, Moore, Huntington) y 1970 (O'Donnell, Rustow, Therborn), para continuar con el análisis de la explosión de estudios sobre la democratización ocurrida en las últimas dos d…
Co-Governance for Accountability
The Golden‐hatchets
Reading, Writing, and Knowing
To explore how writers with extensive experience and learning in an academic discipline used both topical and rhetorical knowledge to construct synthesis essays, 40 graduate students equally representing the two disciplines of psychology and business wrote synthesis essays on either supply-side economics or rehearsal in memory. Half of the writers completed think-aloud protocols, and their composing processes were analyzed for different qualities…
