La intención de esta obra es considerar, repasando los grandes momentos de la historia de México, la evolución de las diversiones y de los gustos culturales. No se trata de establecer un catálogo ni de censar fenómenos, sino de intentar dar un sentido a las mutaciones que han ocurrido en este campo a partir de ejemplos significativos. Las modas y los gustos en los juegos y en la cultura han engendrado siempre modificaciones en las relaciones humanas en la ciudad: reuniones y exclusiones, júbilo o violencia, en pocas palabras, una atmósfera urbana particular. México puede ser un buen campo de experiencia para analizar las relaciones entre la "alta" y la "baja" cultura y las consecuencias de su asociación o de su oposición. En efecto, afectan los sistemas ideológicos, la comunicación entre los ciudadanos, las instituciones e incluso la configuración urbana. La pluralidad de los orígenes y las rupturas históricas hacen de la capital mexicana el lugar privilegiado para el análisis de esas relaciones. Louis Panabière (1935-1995) fue maestro conferenciante en la Universidad de Perpiñán, miembro del Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y, por muchos años, director de la Alianza Francesa y agregado cultural en la embajada francesa en México. En el fce Louis Panabière publicó Itinerario de una disidencia. Jorge Cuesta (1903-1942), una reveladora aportación al estudio de uno de los miembros más sobresalientes del grupo identificado como los Contemporáneos.

"Work provides not only a thoughtful analysis of the ayuntamiento process but also an important examination of Mexico City's development during those years. Major contribution to the history of 'la capital' is also of interest for the historiography of emerging interest in democratic principles in late fin-de-siecle Mexico"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

A City Against Empire is the history of the anti-imperialist movement in 1920s Mexico City. It combines intellectual, social, and urban history to shed light on the city's role as an important global hub for anti-imperialism, exile activism, political art, and solidarity campaigns. After the Russian and the Mexican Revolution, Mexico City became a space and a symbol of global anti-imperialism. Radical politicians, artists, intellectuals, scientists, migrants, and revolutionary tourists took advantage of the urban environment to develop their visions of an anti-imperialism for the twentieth-century. These actors imagined national self-determination, international solidarity, and an emancipation from what they called "the West." Global, local, and urban factors interacted to transform Mexico City into the most important hub for radicalism in the Americas. By weaving together the intellectual history of Mexico, the urban and social histories of Mexico City, and the global history of anti-imperialist movements in the 1920s, this books analyses the perfect storm of anti-imperialism in Mexico City.

Con el objetivo de impulsar las investigaciones sobre el medio ambiente, el Centro de Estudios Económicos de El Colegio de México y la Fundación Konrad Adenauer promovieron la publicación de este libro, el cual contiene artículos que tratan varios aspectos del tema dentro de la perspectiva multidisciplinaria que exigen las reflexiones de esa naturaleza; pero a partir de las áreas de especialización de sus autores. Los aspectos cubiertos van desde la discusión de los diversos instrumentos de la política ambiental, hasta el problema del mantenimiento de la biodiversidad genética del maíz, pasando por el estudio de la contaminación en tres grandes urbes: Buenos Aires, Berlín y la ciudad de México.

"This report provides an assessment of Mexico City's Local Anticorruption System (LACS). Based on international best practices and the OECD Recommendation on Public Integrity, the report reviews the institutional and co-ordination arrangements of the LACS; its regulatory framework; and the tools, programmes and processes necessary for a strategic approach to public integrity. It provides concrete suggestions for enhancing the design and implementation of the system, including cultivating a culture of integrity in government, the private sector and society; improving internal control and risk management; and upgrading public procurement policies to ensure value for money. If effective, the LACS has the potential not only to improve governance, deter corruption and boost citizen's trust in Mexico City, but also to influence the integrity culture in the country as a whole"--Page 4 of cover.

En Los mercados de la Plaza Mayor en la Ciudad de México encontra-mos un ejercicio de microhistoria. La obra indaga la génesis de los merca-dos capitalinos modernos. El comercio tradicional novohispano que combina-ba los «cajones» de espanoles y los «puestos» de indfgenas y castas, se trasformô hasta consolidar, durante el siglo XVIII, très mercados especializa-dos: Alcaiceria, Baratillo y bastimentos. Nada mâs ajeno a los mercados virrei-nales que la libre competencia y la ley de la oferta y la demanda; en cambio, aparecen una serie de vînculos esta-mentales y relaciones informales pacta-das verbalmente como el combustible que ponia en movimiento las transac-ciones mercantiles de la capital de la Nueva Espana.

"Alba Villalever's fascinating ethnography is a careful examination of the crucial role that Chinese migrant women play in Mexico City's ubiquitous popular markets, and a necessary new perspective on the rapidly increasing trade between China and Latin America. Its excellent writing and sharp methodology and analysis will make this book a must read for scholars in Anthropology as well as Asian and Latin American studies." -Fredy González, Associate Professor of Global Asian Studies and History, University of Illinois Chicago, USA This book focuses on the migration strategies of Chinese women who travel to Mexico City in search of opportunities and survival. Specifically, it explores the experiences and contributions of women who have placed themselves within the local and conflictive networks of Mexico City´s downtown street markets (particularly in Tepito), where they work as suppliers and petty vendors of inexpensive products made in China (specifically in Yiwu). Street markets are the vital nodes of Mexican “popular” economy (economía popular), but the people that work and live among them have a long history of marginalization in relation to formal economic networks in Mexico City. Despite the difficult conditions of these spaces, in the last three decades they have become a new source of economic opportunities and labor market access for Chinese migrants, particularly for women. Through their commerce, these migrants have introduced new commodities and new trade dynamics into these markets, which are thereby transformed into alternative spaces of globalization. Ximena Alba Villalever earned her PhD in Anthropology from the Institute for Latin American Studies of the Free University of Berlin, Germany. Her research interests revolve around gender, migration, inequality and globalization. She has researched Chinese migration to Mexico for more than a decade. More recently, she has turned her sight to processes of forced migration and organized violence in Mexico. She is currently working as a Postdoctoral Fellow in a project founded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft in the Institute for Latin American Studies of the Free University of Berlin.
