Ebola and the rhetoric of US newspapers
The 2014 West African Ebola outbreak was the first to be actively covered by the US media because of cases treated on US soil. Despite little chance of widespread contagion, US media termed Ebola ‘apocalyptic.’ The objective of this study was to understand how information about Ebola provided to the public through US newspapers was presented to assess how risk communication principles were or were not used.

Atheist Political Activists Turned Protestants
Missing from the literature on state–society relations in post-Mao China is a detailed scholarly examination of what has happened to the activists who led the political protests in China during the 1980s, which culminated in the massive demonstrations of 1989. One particularly interesting development is that a large number of these political activists have, in the post-1989 period, become Protestant Christians. In general, these activists-turned-…

Post-Transitional Justice
In a thoroughly researched and well-crafted monograph, political scientist Cath Collins explores the reasons why some Latin American countries that experienced state terrorism or at least serious repression in the 1970s and 1980s have begun to bring human rights violators to justice, while others have not. She does so by focusing on two countries that have followed opposite trajectories, Chile and El Salvador. In Chile, even prior to Pinochet’s a…

Chilean Political Exile
Forced exile was important to Chilean politics both during the military regime and after the dictatorship's end in 1990. Exile was central to Pinochet's strategy for eliminating the left in Chile and consolidating and retaining absolute political power. At the same time, exile kept the opposition alive when the left was decimated in Chile, as exiles reconstituted their parties abroad and fought the dictatorship from the "external front." Exiles' …
State Terrorism in Latin America
Set in the larger context of the evolution of international human rights, this cogent book examines the tragic development and ultimate resolution of Latin America's human rights crisis of the 1970s and 1980s. Thomas Wright focuses especially on state terrorism in Chile under General Augusto Pinochet (1973–1990) and in Argentina during the Dirty War (1976–1983). The author probes the background of these regimes, the methodology of state terrorism…

Warriors and Scribes
The seven chapters of this book, all originally published between 1992 and 1999, range from biography to international relations, from electoral analysis to bibliography to film. Five were published in the UK, three of those as occasional papers of the Institute of Latin American Studies at the University of London. This addition to the series coedited by Dunkerley thus makes some interesting material conveniently available to a broader readershi…
From the Common Thug to the Local Businessman
This ethnographic study investigates the social interactions that transpire in an urban African American barbershop, called Peanut's, located in a Southern city. The results of this study indicate that the urban African American barbershop has the potential to be a place where any number of activities can and do take place. Specifically, this study discovered three levels of the underground economy (i.e., legal, quasi-legal, and illegal) with eac…
Latin America in the Era of the Cuban Revolution
Thomas C. Wright describes and explains the extraordinary impact that the Cuban Revolution had on Latin America and on U.S.-Latin American relations during the past three decades. Wright integrates diverse and complex political events into a comprehensive and comprehensible whole--providing a broad perspective on this critical period in Latin American history. Wright does not use a country-by-country approach, but rather a unique synthesis of bro…
Huellas de las transiciones politícas
This collection of essays examines the political transitions of the 1980s and 1990s in Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, and Mexico, focusing on parties and elections. In the opening chapter, Fernando López-Alves presents a useful inventory of transition studies and locates the present volume within the vast literature on the topic. In contrast to the bulk of transition studies, the case studies in this book take a long view of recent changes by…
The National Museum of Science and Industry
The National Museum of Science and Industry is one of world's leading museums devoted to history and public understanding of science, technology, and medicine. It owes its origin to spirit and drive of Prince Albert, profits of Great Exhibition of 1851 (held in nearby Hyde Park), and subsequent founding in 1857 of South Kensington Museum, an institution concerned with union of arts and sciences in pursuit of profitable industry. The collections t…
Legacy of Dictatorship
Exile was a central aspect of the armed forces' approach to gaining and retaining control of Chile after the coup of 11 September 1973 that toppled the elected government of President Salvador Allende. An estimated two hundred thousand Chileans, most of them members of the Unidad Popular (UP) coalition that formed the Allende government or the Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR), were forced to leave for political reasons. An estimated e…

Origins of the Politics of Inflation in Chile, 1888-1918
oF THE LATIN AMERICAN REPUBLICS which have undergone severe inflation since the Great Depression, Chile alone has managed to maintain stable, constitutional government. Chile's uniqueness in this respect owes much to the tradition of political stability which distinguished that country in the nineteenth century; but it also reflects the success of the Chilean approach to controlling the conflict generated by inflation. As early as the 1930s Chile…
Agriculture and Protectionsm in Chile, 1880-1930
In searching for the roots of Chile's persistent economic frustrations, numerous investigators have turned their attention to the period between the War of the Pacific and the Great Depression. During that half century Chile's elites enjoyed the bounty of the nitrate age but, perhaps lulled by the glowing trade statistics, generous fiscal revenues and general aura of prosperity which nitrates provided, neglected to develop alternative sources of …

The emergence of new groups in society willing and able to supply capital and enterprise to modern industry is one of the crucial aspects of economic development. The sources of entrepreneurship in China and the relations of those entrepreneurs with the rest of society have been insufficiently studied. Previous writers have tended to focus on outstanding individuals such as Sheng Hsuan-huai and Chang Chien, and to pay insufficient attention to th…

Guerrillas and Revolution in Latin America
In this comparative survey of guerrilla movements in Latin America, Timothy Wickham-Crowley explores the origins and outcomes of rural insurgencies in nearly a dozen cases since 1956. Focusing on the personal backgrounds of the guerrillas themselves and on national social conditions, the author explains why guerrillas emerged strongly in certain countries but not others. He considers, for example, under what circumstances guerrillas acquire milit…
