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.

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.

"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.

La igualdad consagrada en las constituciones políticas que han regido en México, desde la española de 1812 hasta la mexicana de 1917, idealizó e impuso un estilo de vida sobre realidades sociales que nuestra historiografía suele ignorar. Los barrios indígenas de la ciudad de México y sus pueblos aledaños sufrieron el embate de esas exigencias, pero de ese hecho y de la resistencia que ofrecieron poco o nada se dice públicamente. De ello se ocupa el presente estudio al recorrer la vida de comunidades -algunas desaparecidas ya, otras al límite de su existencia- que guardan memoria de una historia propia. La historia de la ciudad de México no puede limitarse al registro de la expansión de la mancha urbana. Tal es lo que este libro -elaborado sobre testimonios de primera mano- nos recuerda al hablar de los barrios y pueblos de indígenas que formaron las parcialidades de San Juan Tenochtitlan y Santiago Tlatelolco.

Why do social organizations decide to protest instead of working through institutional channels? This book draws hypotheses from three standard models of contentious political action - POS, resource mobilization, and identity - and subjects them to a series of qualitative and quantitative tests. The results have implications for social movement theory, studies of protest, and theories of public policy/agenda setting. The characteristics of movement organizations - type of resources, internal leadership competition, and identity - shape their inherent propensity to protest. Party alliance does not constrain protest, even when the party ally wins power. Instead, protest becomes a key part of organizational maintenance, producing constant incentives to protest that do not reflect changing external conditions. Nevertheless, organizations do respond to changes in the political context, governmental cycles in particular. In the first year of a new government, organizations have strong incentives to protest in order to establish their priority in the policy agenda.
