Rutgers University Press Parcels Memories of Salvadoran Migration
Book SynopsisAnastario investigates the social memories of rural Salvadorans from an area that was heavily impacted by the Salvadoran Civil War, which fueled a mass exodus to the U.S. By working with travelers who exchanged parcels containing food, medicine, photographs and letters, Anastario tells the story behind parcels and illuminates their larger cultural and structural significance.Trade Review"This book is sociologically important and politically urgent. It reveals, through powerful and convincing prose, the ways in which imperialist interventions of the past are shaping the immigration crises of the present. With a compelling analysis of migrants’ memories, Anastario re-centers humanity in the brutal history of US-Salvadoran relations." -- Leah Schmalzbauer * co-author of Immigrant Families *"Parcels is a powerful book. Sociologist Mike Anastario has crafted a timely, deeply researched, and beautifully rendered account that captures the critical role of transnational couriers in diasporic life and in the making of diasporic memories. Anastario’s sharp focus on the ubiquitous and intimate movement of objects, from money, to food, to photographs, brilliantly opens up new and exciting areas of inquiry around memory studies, postwar, state violence, and the queering of the rural diaspora. It is a compelling and engrossing read that invites an ample audience across borders." -- Irina Carlota Silber * author of Everyday Revolutionaries: Gender, Violence, and Disillusionment in Postwar El Salvador *"In this remarkable study Mike Anastario reveals a world that is hidden from most US citizens—a world that challenges the very notion of borders. As Anastario traces the movement of humans and goods across borders from tiny towns in rural El Salvador to migrant enclaves in the urban United States, he also presents an authoritative example of how the past influences the present. With unprecedented access to Salvadoran couriers and their networks, Anastario unpacks the tremendous power of memory—and the hazards of forgetting. Parcels is not only a positive model of engaged research; it is a heartening call to accountability for the US Fugue State." -- Molly Todd * author of Beyond Displacement *“Parcels is relevant to the interdisciplinary fields of Central American studies and Latina/o/x studies to a general readership attentive to the context around contemporary battles over Central American immigrants.” * Aztlan *Table of ContentsContentsAcknowledgments Introduction Part I Diasporic Remembering 1 Es barata y es cara: couriers and parcels in transnational space 2 A sequence of undocumented migrant memories 3 Diasporic intimacy and nostos imaginaries 4 We don’t have to learn to be what we are not: Memory and imagination in the rural diaspora Part II The US Fugue State 5 Silence and systematic forgetting 6 Fields of violence 7 Deferments of voice, myopic reflections Conclusion Appendix Notes Bibliography Index

Rutgers University Press Desired States Sex Gender and Political Culture
Book SynopsisChallenges the notion that in some cultures, sex and sexuality have become privatized and located in individual subjectivity rather than in public political practices and institutions. Instead, the book contends that desire is a central aspect of political culture.Trade Review"Desired States provides a groundbreaking reading of the continuities of Chilean dictatorial ideology in private and domestic spheres, as well as of the ways in which masculinities shaped the country’s politics through the 20th century. The book redefines the relationship between gender and politics in ways that are not only paradigm-shifting for the study of Chile, but also suggestive and productive for Latin Americanists at large." -- Ignacio M. Sánchez Prado * author of Screening Neoliberalism: Transforming Mexican Cinema 1988-2012 *"Desired States aptly brings to focus Chilean nation-state histories of oligarchy, Catholicism, and populism through a lens of sexuality beyond the realm of individualized subjectivity. Frazier carefully stitches a composite lived archive of the grammar of gender and sexuality while analytically zooming into the affective links with the nation-state as potentially transformative, well beyond the Chilean example.” -- Valentina Napolitano * author of Migrant Hearts and the Atlantic Return: Transnationalism and the Roman Catholic Church *"Desired States ...centrally engages with Latin American insights and concerns ...[with] extensive archival and ethnographic research in Chile and a mastery of the latest theoretical advances in feminist, queer, and cultural studies. Interdisciplinary scholarship is something that we academics talk a lot about but seldom do—and rarely do well. The apparent ease and success with which Frazier manages it is truly remarkable." -- Robert Buffington * co-editor of A Global History of Sexuality: The Modern Era *"Frazier is absolutely right that 'the state is not just a rational policy-generating apparatus.' Desire is complicated, ludic and motile. People support politicians for complicated reasons that often have nothing at all to do with policy, and political leaders self-consciously cultivate affective ties to their constituents in ways that cannot be accounted for merely in terms of charisma.

Wayne State University Press Queering AntiZionism
Book SynopsisWith engaged scholarship and an exciting contribution to the field of Israel/Palestine studies, queer scholar-activist Corinne Blackmer stages a pointed critique of scholars whose anti-Israel bias pervades their activism as well as their academic work. Blackmer demonstrates how the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement that seeks to delegitimize and isolate Israel has become a central part of social justice advocacy on campus, particularly within gender and sexuality studies programs. The chapters focus on the intellectual work of Sarah Schulman, Jasbir Puar, Angela Davis, Dean Spade, and Judith Butler, demonstrating how they misapply critical theory in their discussions of the State of Israel. Blackmer shows how these LGBTQ intellectuals mobilize queer theory and intersectionality to support the BDS movement at the expense of academic freedom and open discourse.

New York University Press The PostSoviet Wars
Book SynopsisProvides both an overview of the Caucasus that is both up-to-date and comprehensive as well as an accessible understanding of the current scholarship on mobilization and violenceTrade ReviewDemocracy is commonly paired with order while ethnic violence is paired with strife and chaos. The Post-Soviet Wars painstakingly documents that both violence and stability have institutional reasons and must be organized politically by specific human agencies. This lesson is obviously relevant to the contemporary discussion of democratization as well as & failing states, let alone the effects wrought by the American war on terror. -- Georgi Derlugyan,author of Bourdieu's Secret Admirer in the Caucasus: A World-System BiographyWith his exciting narratives and compelling analysis of the twentieth century's & Caucasian Wars, Zürcher brings events on the periphery of Europe into the mainstream of social science and comparative politics. Disputing existing explanations of internal wars, he shows that rather than mountainous terrain or poverty, a more powerful causal explanation of civil bloodletting can be located in state capacities and the abilities of combatants to finance their struggles. This book is sure to stir debate. -- Ronald Grigor Suny,University of MichiganThese well-written chapters provide plenty of detail and analysis, displaying the authors deep understanding of the realities of these extremely chaotic and uncertain times in the Caucasus.

MP-SYR Syracuse University P Factional Politics in PostKhomeini Iran
Book SynopsisThis study analyses Iran's post-revolutionary politics.Trade ReviewOne of the most enduring features of Iranian politics under the Islamic Republic has been the kaleidoscope of competing factions. . . . But, as the author of this well-researched and informative book makes clear, factional divisions in contemporary Iran are far more complicated and fluid, and they do not lend themselves to simple classification. Relying on a variety of Iranian documents, including parliamentary debates and newspapers, as well as Western sources, Moslem provides a detailed analysis of factions and factional interaction in post-Khomeni Iran. He explains the sources of factionalism and the major personalities in the evolving factional alignments in the country. Highly recommended.

MP-SYR Syracuse University P Britain and the Iranian Constitutional Revolution
Book SynopsisProviding an account of the British involvement and support of the Iranian constitutional and national struggle of 1906-1911, this book examines the role of the Persia Committee, a lobbying group founded in 1908 for the purpose of changing Britain's policy towards Iran. It also covers how Edward Grey's policy towards Iran was shaped.Trade ReviewFor the first time the intricacies of British political society in this period have been explored by someone who has an intimate knowledge of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution of 1906-1911. Throughout this well-balanced and carefully nuanced narrative Bonakdarian shows the interplay between the nationalists in Iran and their supporters abroad, particularly in London and at Westminster. Implicit in his argument is the subtle, timely critique of Edward Said's homogenizing discourse of western Orientalism.... A remarkable achievement. - J. D.

Book SynopsisTrade Review"Aligning herself with the most vulnerable, and armed with a sharp stylus, Shampa Biswas deftly dissects the sprawling corpus of the global nuclear order. Focusing her analysis on the sinews of the nuclear non-proliferation regime, she tracks and traces the modalities through which ideological allure and enforced abstinence, sanitized events and horrifying accidents, faith in deterrence and flows of deathly waste, commodity fetishism and enlightenment technologies of rule, expensive state security and opaque political economy come together to power this colonial regime. Nuclear Desire offers profound and provocative insights into the hierarchical structuring and colonial governance of contemporary global orders."—Himadeep Muppidi, Vassar College"Nuclear Desire moves us to rethink the route to a nuclear-free world as one that must center reasons of peace and social justice. Shampa Biswas moves beyond well-rehearsed critiques—indeed, beyond critique itself—to give us new insights into how a more secure world might simultaneously be more peaceful and just."—J.

The University of Alabama Press Ethnic Entrepreneurs Crony Capitalism and the
Book SynopsisA groundbreaking historical narrative of corruption and economic success in Mexico, this book provides a new way to understand the scope and impact of crony capitalism on institutional development in Mexico.Trade Review“This is a compelling case study of crony capitalism in Mexico, one that previously has not been studied at such length. Galindo makes a convincing argument that neither the neo-institutionalists nor those who focus on social networks fully capture the structural foundations for Mexican capitalism. Formal institutions were often much stronger than neo-institutionalists recognize, according to Galindo, though they were too weak to curb the crony capitalism and corruption endemic to Mexican modernization, as other scholars might argue. In this, Galindo stakes important new ground that seeks to understand social networks and institutions in relation to each other.” —Susan M. Gauss, author of Made in Mexico: Regions, Nation, and the State in the Rise of Mexican Industrialism, 1920s–1940s “This study helps explain one of the most intractable problems in Mexican history over the last century and a half, which is the marriage of business and politics at the highest levels. The author explores the trajectory of one of the most powerful business families that has survived and prospered in Mexico and hence helps to explain legacies of oligopolies, political authoritarianism, and corruption in the long run.”—Carlos Marichal Salinas, author of Bankruptcy of Empire: Mexican Silver and the Wars between Spain, Britain and France, 1760–1810“An impressive and amply documented study of the migration of French capital to Mexico. Galindo focuses on the Jean family and its ties to other immigrant ‘Barcelonnettes’ to draw out the broader implications of crony capitalism for Mexico and elsewhere. Empirically informed and theoretically sophisticated, Galindo's work will be of interest to a wide range of students in history, development studies, and political science alike.” —Richard J. Salvucci, author of Politics, Markets, and Mexico's "London Debt," 1823–1887 “JosÉ Galindo's detailed historical analysis of crony capitalism in Mexico broadens our understanding of the development and dynamic of this important pattern of corruption. Focusing on the Jean family from the French region of Barcelonnette, the study masterfully highlights not only businesses adapt to weak formal institutions, but the nature of the informal institutions that forge close and reciprocal relationships linking business to state officials. The book contributes to recent historical works on corruption in Mexico focusing on cultural factors by emphasizing the underlying institutional causal factors and tracing the political and economic consequences of crony capitalism. Ethnic Entrepreneurs, Crony Capitalism, and the Making of the Franco-Mexican Elite is a must read for those interested in the history of corruption in Mexico.” —Stephen D. Morris, author of Gringolandia: Mexican Identity and Perceptions of the United States

UNIV OF ALABAMA PR Fighting Monsters in the Abyss
Book SynopsisExamines the complex constraints and trade-offs the second administration of Colombian President Uribe (2006-2010) encountered as it attempted to resolve that nation’s violent Marxist insurrection and to have a more efficient judicial system.Trade Review“Fighting Monsters in the Abyss makes an original and significant contribution to the field of Latin American politics. Kline’s research is impressive. Building on his august wealth of knowledge of Colombia, this study offers new data and insights."—Cynthia McClintock, author of Revolutionary Movements in Latin America: El Salvador’s FMLN and Peru’s Shining Path and coauthor of The United States and Peru: Cooperation—At a Cost “Álvaro Uribe’s second term was a time of notable improvements in security. It was also a time of mounting scandals that shook Colombia's institutions, and of paralyzing discord between the executive and judicial branches. Understanding this period is essential to understanding the hopeful yet deeply polarized political moment Colombia is experiencing today. Fighting Monsters in the Abyss captures the complexity of the 2006 to 2010 period in a way that Álvaro Uribe's many detractors and hero-worshippers rarely do. Harvey Kline’s painstaking research allows him to arrive at honest, balanced conclusions, which make this an important book.”—Adam Isacson, author of Just the Facts: A Civilian’s Guide to US Defense and Security Assistance to Latin America and the Caribbean

Duke University Press The Dictator Next Door
Book SynopsisDemonstrates how caution, confusion, and conflicting goals marked US relations with Trujillo and set the tone for the ambivalent Cold War relations that prevailed until Trujillo's assassination in 1961. This title is for suitable Latin Americanists, historians, political scientists, and specialists in international relations and diplomacy.Trade Review“The Dictator Next Door is a powerfully argued, full-blown diplomatic history that sheds much useful light on a crucial period of United States foreign relations. There are many fine studies of the Good Neighbor Policy, but none comes close to Roorda’s densely textured knowledge of U.S.-Dominican relations.”— Lars Schoultz, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill“An excellent piece of research on a topic that is both important and neglected. Roorda’s determination to look at this bilateral relationship as the product of a multiplicity of actors is indeed unique.”—Bruce Calder, University of Illinois at Chicago“The Dictator Next Door . . . is a well-told story of relations between the United States and the Dominican Republic during the 1930s and 1940s. Perhaps the most important contribution of Roorda’s work is his convincing depiction of the buildup of Rafael Trujillo’s empire using the good neighbor policy to his advantage.” -- Daniela Spenser * Hispanic American Historical Review *“[A] definitive account of United States policies toward the Dominican Republic during the first half of Rafael Trujillo’s odious regime. . . . [An] excellent study.” -- Stephen G. Rabe * Journal of American History *“For an excellent view of the Good Neighbor Policy in action and the role of the military in basic foreign relations, this book is required reading.” -- Robert Freeman Smith * Military History *“Roorda’s book is a substantial contribution not only to our understanding of the dynamics of U.S.-Latin American relations during the Good Neighbor era but to an emerging international history that documents the capacity of small states on the peripheries of world power to influence the policies of superpowers at the center of the international system.” -- Michael Grow * American Historical Review *"An essential history of American presidents Herbert Hoover and FDR's failed 'Good Neighbor Policy' in Latin America detailing how Trujillo manged to maintain support in Washington by siding against first the Fascists and later the Communists, despite the blatant horrors of his regime." * Rough Guide to the Dominican Republic *

Michael Weis, The Americas“Political Policing is a superb analysis, lucidly and compellingly written, of the US role in creating, training, and guiding Latin American police forces. - Kenneth Paul Erickson, Luso-Brazilian Review“Martha Huggins has written a major exposé of the CIA’s and AID’s promotion of state terrorism through political murder, disappearances, and institutionalized torture by civil and military police, and their affiliated death squads in Latin America. Every American concerned about our country’s role in the world should read this book.”—Philip Agee, author of Inside the Company“Written with scholarly precision and patriotic outrage, Political Policing is the most comprehensive investigation we have of the long and detestable U. S. involvement in police training in Latin America.

Duke University Press The Cultures of Globalization
Book SynopsisExplores the concept of globalization in a variety of cultural settings, and its effect on world-wide cultural transformation of nation, place, race, class, ethnos and gender.Trade ReviewReview by Peter Burger appeared in the TLS, August 20, 1999. Completely hostile to the Marxist analysis of globalization and to the belief in all the essays that globalization has had only negative consequences ... "The conference at Duke University was an international gathering of people with monotonously identical views. Their approach is shaped by a particular mixture of neo-Marxism and so-called literary theory, which began as an intellectual fashion in France and has become a dreary orthodoxy in American academe. There was not a single dissenting voice."Table of ContentsAcknowledgments ix Preface / Fredric Jameson xi I.
