Navigating contradictions: Perceptions of climate action progress and obstruction in Argentina
Latin America is called to play a central role in the decarbonization of the world economy. The large strategic resources of the region appear both as an object of the deepening of extractive processes and as a potential contribution to the green economy. In the case of Argentina, contradictory trends emerge from the coexistence of a pledge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and a strategic reliance on the agricultural and energy sectors …
Desarrollo Desigual De Las Políticas Ambientales en Las Provincias Argentinas (2007-2017)
En América Latina hubo un incremento en la formulación de políticas promotoras de la protección ambiental. Sin embargo, distintos trabajos muestran que hay diferencias entre sectores productivos. En Argentina, el federalismo ha posibilitado la emergencia de políticas desiguales en materia de recursos naturales. ¿Cuáles son las causas que explican el avance desigual de las políticas ambientales en las provincias de este país? La hipótesis es que t…
The U.S. Border Patrol
The year 2024 marks the centennial of the Border Patrol’s creation. This essay is an overview of how border policing on the Mexican border started, how it has been supervised over the past century, and how different presidential administrations and congresses have fashioned legislation to address America’s labor needs, vacillating between recruitment and expulsion drives
The Erotic Zone: Sexual Transgression on the U.S.-Mexican Border
This chapter argues that many borderland “Americans” use negative sexual stereotypes to suppress the dependence of white middle-class prosperity on the intimate presence of Mexicans. It suggests certain acceptable forms of contact coexist with polarizing domination and paranoia, leaving a conjunction of sexuality and economics untouched.

The political impact of environmental mobilization: A theoretical discussion in the light of the Argentine case
Upon the third wave of democratization, environmental mobilization has increased throughout Latin America. In line with this process, the literature has analyzed different aspects of environmental mobilization, such as the types of groups involved and the resources mobilized. Yet, less attention has been paid to the impacts of those mobilizations. So, we ask: what are the impacts of environmental mobilization and how can they be best understood?B…

The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America
The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America covers religious history in Latin America from pre-Conquest times until the present. This publication is important; first, because of the historical and contemporary centrality of religion in the life of Latin America; second, for the rapid process of religious change which the region is undergoing; and third, for the region's religious distinctiveness in global comparative terms, which contribu…
Internal Colonialism
The idea that internal or domestic forms of colonialism could exist within the boundaries of modern nation‐states was first articulated during the late 1950s by Latin American and African developmental economists as a critique of the concept of dual economies. Such economies—one modern, capitalist, and dynamic; the other feudal, backward, and precapitalist—were seen as the reason for the backwardness of many parts of the globe. In the late 1960s …
Pobreza urbana, comunidad local y Estado-socio en Argentina: La provisión de servicios públicos en un asentamiento de la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires
While in the better-off sectors of the city public services (such as water, electricity, or waste collection) are provided through State-owned or private companies, in the poorest quarters their provision depends a great deal on community organization as well as on local leadership. Based upon the study of a Metropolitan Buenos Aires shanty town, we contend that both (community organization and local leadership) are two-faced mechanisms. On the o…
La emergencia del ambientalismo estatal y social en Argentina
La primera agencia ambiental estatal fue tempranamente creada en Argentina con el retorno a la democracia en 1973 y tras la Conferencia de Estocolmo de 1972. No obstante, la creación de instituciones estatales ambientales ha distado de ser incremental y sólo comenzó a ganar vigor en la década de 1990. Simultáneamente, las organizaciones sociales ambientalistas emergieron en sucesivas oleadas desde mediados de los años 1960 hasta nuestros días. Es…
Racializing Poverty and Poor Relief
Here is a dazzling book, one that offers a rich genealogy for reflection about our current preoccupations. Open up any newspaper. Switch on any television news program. What you will read and hear is a cacophony of voices, many of them discordant, on how to fix, fund, and perhaps shrink the federal government's spending on those insurance programs first created in the 1930s by the New Deal welfare state. Equally factious are the debates on immigr…

Internal Colonialism: An American Theory of Race
This essay explores the historical genealogy of Internal Colonialism as an American theory of race from approximately 1950 to the early 1990s. Internal Colonialism as an idea originated in Latin America as part of a larger Marxist critique of development ideologies and was specifically elaborated by dependency theorists to explain the racial effects of poverty and isolation on indigenous communities. Black and Chicano radicals fascinated by the C…

What's Love Got to Do with It
To the popular singer Tina Turner's bittersweet song that repeatedly asks, “What's love got to do with it?,” Ann Laura Stoler would surely reply, “Everything, girl.” No secondhand emotions here. For in the workings of the intimate domain, through sentimental education, through child rearing, and through sex, Stoler sees the making of race, the management of empire, and the congruence of imperial projects about the globe. Stoler's stunning essay f…
Honor Ideology, Marriage Negotiation, and Class-Gender Domination in New Mexico, 1690-1846
The ways in which societies organize marriage provide us an important window into how economic and political arrangements are construed. When people marry, they forge affinal alliances, change residence, establish rights to sexual service, and exchange property. Besides being about the reproduction of class and power, however, marriage is about gender. The marital exchange of women gives men rights over women that women never gain over men. This …

George W. Bush and Mexican Immigration Policy
En 2001 le président Bush promettait à son homologue mexicain, Vicente Fox, qu’une relation particulière entre les États-Unis et le Mexique serait établie : au cœur de l’engagement figurait la délicate question de l’accueil des immigrés mexicains, légaux ou non, sur le sol américain. Pour Bush, il s’agissait de gagner la faveur de la population latino, en augmentation constante. Depuis sept ans, le président s’évertue à mettre en place une législ…

The Chicanos: As We See Ourselves
Thirteen Chicano scholars draw upon their personal experiences and expertise to paint a vivid, colorful portrait of what it means to be a Chicano. “We have come a long way,” says Arnulfo D. Trejo, editor of this volume, “from the time when the Mexicano silently accepted the stereotype drawn of him by the outsider.” He identifies himself as a Chicano, and his “promised land” is Aztlan, home of the ancient Aztecs, which now provides spiritual unity…
