The Ruins of the New Argentina: Peronism and the Remaking of San Juan after the 1944 Earthquake
In January 1944, an earthquake reduced the province of San Juan, Argentina, to rubble, leaving perhaps ten thousand dead and one hundred thousand homeless. In The Ruins of the New Argentina , Mark A. Healey argues that the disaster and the massive rebuilding project that followed transformed not only the province but also the nation. The earthquake was a shattering and galvanizing experience, an indictment of the old social order and an invitatio…
Shaky Colonialism: The 1746 Earthquake-Tsunami in Lima, Peru, and Its Long Aftermath
In this lively account, Charles Walker describes the political and social struggles to rebuild and remake Lima after the city and its neighboring port were destroyed by an earthquake and tsunami on October 28, 1746. He uses the disaster as a window onto the inner life of the colonial city and argues that the barrage of reforms the Spanish viceroy attempted to implement in its aftermath were a dress rehearsal for the later Bourbon Reforms.The book…
Blood, Ink, and Culture: Miseries and Splendors of the Post-Mexican Condition
Pens and swords, words and blows: for Roger Bartra, the culture of ink and the culture of blood offer two contrasting approaches to the political transformations of our time. In this compilation of essays, Bartra thinks through these transformations by tracing the complex interplay between popular culture, nationalist ideology, civil society, and the state in contemporary Mexico.Written with verve over a period of twenty years, these essays-most …
The Fragility of the Moment: Politics and Class in the Aftermath of the 1944 Argentine Earthquake
In less than a minute on a summer evening in 1944, an earthquake reduced the city of San Juan to rubble, leaving ten thousand dead and half the province homeless. The worst natural disaster in Argentine history, the tragedy was an indictment of the old political order and a spur for the new order to come.On June 4, 1943, a military coup overthrew the last of the fraudulently elected democratic governments that had ruled Argentina since 1930. The …
Building the New World: Studies in the Modern Architecture of Latin America, 1930-1960
In this beautifully designed, lavishly illustrated, and compellingly written volume, art historian Valerie Fraser provides the best synthetic account of the heroic age of modern Latin American architecture available in English until now. Mining out-of-print monographs and the fruits of recent research, Fraser brings to the fore the surprising accomplishments and dystopian aftermath of three decades when architecture seemed key to social transform…
Sociabilidad en Buenos Aires: Hombres, honor y cafés, 1862-1910
A round of drinks, an angry challenge, a flash of steel: these are the central motifs of this pioneering study of male sociability in modernizing Buenos Aires. Waxing nostalgia for a vanished “mythology of knives” and duels, Jorge Luis Borges once wrote, “a song of heroism has been lost in sordid police reports.” Digging deep into those very police reports—the first research to do so—Sandra Gayol has produced a theoretically astute and empiricall…
