SIGNED: ^ 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Without the support and warmth from the members of my dissertation committee, this research project would probably not have reached its joyful conclusion. I am particularly indebted to Dr. Jane Hill, my dissertation advisor, for her wisdom and resolve and, of course, for her wonderful and contagious laughter and no-nonsense approach to everyday life. I am very grateful to Dr. Richard Thompson, whose knowledge, time and overall belief and support sustained several of us through our doctoral studies. Dr. Norma Gonzalez not only brought cheerfulness and strength to my research efforts at the end of every semester, but more recently provided me with the necessary incisive questions that have pushed me to clarify and fasten arguments of this dissertation. I am especially grateful to Norma for having encouraged me to continue when I thought I needed to quit. The women involved in this research effort in Ciudad Juarez and El Paso are also at the center of my gratitude because of their ideas and words, our shared moments and more. I am particularly grateful to Maria Isabel A. Clarke, Refugio Jaquez Provencio de Guerra, Antonina Avvocato de Quirarte, Maria Teresa Rojas de Romero, Antonia Chavez Serrano, the Lady from Stanton Street and MAW, for their friendship, love and lessons of life. Maruca San Martin de Badia, Laura Carrillo, Gloria Hoyos, Martha Samaniego, Luz Maria Villalba, and Ana Zubia Osante are the best cheerleading squad anyone can hope for. And Emma Carrejo, RMBG, SG, Marta Susana Berroteran de Gomez, Pilar Cotera de Herrera, AMMM, and Bertha Robles Sifuentes quietly stood by the trenches after having provided me with hours of their scarce time as well as with key research elements. And I am especially grateful to Josefina Cuellar Rich, not only for casually providing me with the wonderful metaphor of El Engranaje, but for showering my mother with love and affection during the crucial years of my dissertation research. I am additionally thankful to my other professors at the University of Arizona, especially Drs. Patrick Culbert, Brackette Williams, and the late Daniel Nugent for their trust in me. And a special acknowledgement goes to Dr. Adela Artola Allen from the Graduate College at U. of A. for her time and financial support. In El Paso, Dr. Arturo Pacheco, Lupita Montat)o and Manolo Rosas, as well as my daughter, Elea Uraga, provided the much-needed writing shelters. These shelters ended up being my havens of solace and concentration but also of hope and possibilities. My appreciation for their generosity and faith in me. Drs. David Eyde and Alejandro Lugo have been key in my development as an anthropologist, and so have my colleagues and friends, Zulma Mendez and Paola Sesia. To them, my heartfelt thank you. Hortensia Caballero, Jacqueline Messing, Guillermo Niinez-Noriega, Kerstin Reinschmidt and Eda Ena Saynes V. contributed to my formation in all sorts of beautiful ways throughout our shared doctoral ordeal. And Maribel Alvarez, mi hermana y colega, gracias por todo tu apoyo, amor, e intercambio de ideas. Finally, my love and gratitude to Jorge and Eleita, my strength and joy, who, with the silencing of Tio Luis, they simply doubled their support and affection. 5 DEDICATION Para Gabriela y Carlos Nugent, agradeciendo todo lo que su padre, el Dr. Daniel Nugent, contribuyo a mi formacion academica. A mi maestra, Raquel Rubio-Goldsmith, con profundo agradecimiento. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT 9 PREFACE-THE SITE 11 CHAPTER 1 - THE RESEARCH PROJECT AT A GLIMPSE Introduction 18 Detecting Transformed Colonialism 22 Fieldwork Experience 24 El Engranaje 31 Burguesas Pero Piadosas 35 Muy Mexicanas, Pero 39 El Otro Lado 43 Weaving our Lives across a Two-Nation Divide 45 CHAPTER 2 - FIELDWORK EXPERIENCE, METHODS OF RESEARCH Introduction - Coming Home 48 Deciphering the Research Goal 52 Approaching "The Fieldwork Experience" 54 Specifically, Who and How? 55 Una Tacita de Cafe - The Flavor of the Utterance 61 Re-Creating an Utterance for Interpretation 67 Conclusions 70 CHAPTER 3 - EL ENGRANAJE Introduction - From the field notes on an evening of social production 75 El Engranaje 84 Our (Bourgeois) Ways 92 European Bourgeois at El Paso del Norte 99 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS - Continued Hay que acomodar 105 Conclusions 121 CHAPTER 4 - BURGUESAS PERO PIADOSAS Introduction - The Pious Ways 127 Field Notes on Simplicity—or Is It? - April, 1997 130 Talking about Work and Purpose 136 Gender in the Context of Social Reproduction 143 More than Piety 147 Vestiges of Other Relations 150 Becoming a Part of the Spanish Colonial Map 153 Piadosas de Hoy - Doing Things Out of Love 161 Conclusions: Paradoxical Uses of Capitals 172 CHAPTER 5 - MUY MEXICANAS, PERO...

From these narratives of privilege, the author looks at the differentiating ways of these women and includes, within theoretical and historical

  • The Rites of Statehood: Violence and Sovereignty in Spanish America, 1789-1821 Jeremy Adelman Princeton University in Gabriel Ga
    1 The Rites of Statehood: Violence and Sovereignty in Spanish America, 1789-1821 Jeremy Adelman Princeton University In Gabriel Garcia Marquez's novel, The General in his Labyrinth, a long-winded Frenchman lectures a pensive, dying Simon Bolivar. The Liberator responds. He acknowledges that the revolution unleashed the furies of avenging justice, and laments, without repudiating, his decision to order the execution of eight hundred Spanish prisoners in a single day, including pa.ti~nts in La Guaira' s moral authority to reproach me, for if any history is drowned in blood, indignity, and injustice, it is the history of Europe." When the Frenchman tries to interrupt, Bolivar puts down his cutlery \ and glares at his guest. "Damn it, please let us have our Middle Ages in peace!" he exclaimed. 1 These, of course, were Garc,a Marquez's words, not Bolivar's. But they echo Bolivar's requiem on the events he shaped about the relationship between savagery and state-formation. More than lofty proclamations or principle's of statehood, the historical memory of the years leading to 1821 are saturated with blood. For the chroniclers and epic writers, from Jose Manuel, Restrepo's (1827) Historia de la Revolucion de Colombi~ to Garcia Marquez, the scenes of violence and carnage gave rise to narratives of sacrifice and struggle that could not be wholly redeemed by what came after. And yet, we have not thought very systematically about the significance of political violence in Latin America - despite its recurrence. Perhaps it is because of its recurrence: for so many, the cruelty was sown into a ''tradition'' of conquest and 1 Gabriel Garda Marquez, The General in His Labyrinth (New York: Knopf, 1990), p.

  • Socioeconomic Inequalities Among the Municipalities of Chihuahua, Mexico
    T h e J o u r n a l o f D e v e l o p i n g A r e a s Volume 55 No. 3 Summer 2021 SOCIOECONOMIC INEQUALITIES AMONG THE MUNICIPALITIES OF CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO Omolara Adebimpe Adekanbi Isaac Sánchez-Juárez Both affiliated with Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez, México ABSTRACT The objective of this paper is to analyze the nature of inequalities among the municipalities of Chihuahua State, Mexico and the factors that contribute to the disparity. The state of Chihuahua has a deep household inequality due to the nature of the inhabitants’ occupations and comprises a significant percentage of the people living in poverty in Mexico because of social deprivation and low income. Previous studies on inequality in Mexico show that significant differences among the municipalities is caused by factors such as marginalization, low economic activity, and informal activities while some other studies have used similar variables selected from social and economic sphere. All these works used these variables to obtain the socioeconomic development index for each region under study. Following the methodology used in de Haro et al. (2017), this paper examines the social and economic conditions of the 67 municipalities of Chihuahua State by calculating the Socioeconomic Development Index (SEDI) of each municipality using the data compiled on variables such as marginalization, degree of urbanization, gross economic activity rate, economic dependence coefficient and density of paved roads. The result shows that two municipalities: Juarez and Chihuahua City have the most favorable socioeconomic conditions due to a high urban density and a low marginalization.

  • Las Luces De Hidalgo Y De Abad Y Queipo*
    Las luces de Hidalgo y de Abad y Queipo* Carlos Herrejón Peredo El Colegio de Michoacán Cuando estalló la revolución de independencia en la Nueva España, septiembre de 1810, no pocas gentes caían en la cuenta de varias coincidencias: ¿No era Hidalgo, cabecilla de aquella revuelta, un clérigo del obispado de Michoacán, en cuya capital Valladolid se había descubierto una conspiración el año anterior? ¿no era su prelado y amigo el obispo Abad y Queipo, que tenía fama de reformador y liberal, y acababa de estar en Francia? ¿no se decía que el clero de Valladolid “empezando por la mayor parte de los prebendados de su catedral han apoyado las ideas revoltosas y disparatadas del cura Hidalgo”1 ¿no era el mismo obispado de Michoacán donde cuarenta años antes se había presentado resistencia violenta a varias medidas del despotismo borbónico? Por todo ello no faltó quien concluyera: en Valladolid todos son insur­ gentes, y como prevención general y práctica se divulgó el dicho: “A los de Valladolid, la cruz”, como si fueran el demonio mismo.2 Obviamente se exageraba en la generalización, mas los sucesos inmediatos fueron confiriendo mucho de verdad a aquella conclusión. Al obispado de aquella ciudad pertene­ cieron Hidalgo y Allende, Morelos y Rayón, Berdusco y * Ponencia presentada en el coloquio L ’Amérique Latine Face a la Révolution Françai­ se. París, La Sorbonne, 28-30 junio, 1989. Liceaga, los Abasóles, los Aldamas, y hasta el realista y trigarante Agustín de Iturbide. Además, notables sucesos de la guerra de independencia ocurrieron en el territorio de aquella diócesis: el Grito de Dolores, gran parte de la ruta de Hidalgo, la instalación de la Suprema Junta de Zitácuaro, los baluartes de Tlalpujahua, Yuriria, Cóporo, Jaujilla y el Som­ brero; la incesante guerrilla, los sitios de Valladolid, y, en fin, la constitución de Apatzingán.

  • Austin's Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation
    Space, Place, and Protest: Austin’s Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation of Texan Identities, 1968-1978 Travis David Stimeling A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Jocelyn R. Neal, Chair Jon W. Finson David García Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer © 2007 Travis David Stimeling ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT TRAVIS DAVID STIMELING: “Space, Place, and Protest: Austin’s Progressive Country Music Scene and the Negotiation of Texan Identities, 1968-1978” (Under the direction of Jocelyn R. Neal) The progressive country music movement developed in Austin, Texas, during the early 1970s as a community of liberal young musicians and concertgoers with strong interests in Texan country music traditions and contemporary rock music converged on the city. Children of the Cold War and the post-World War II migration to the suburbs, these “cosmic cowboys” sought to get back in touch with their rural roots and to leave behind the socially conservative world their parents had created for them. As a hybrid of country music and rock, progressive country music both encapsulated the contradictions of the cosmic cowboys in song and helped to create a musical sanctuary in which these youths could articulate their difference from mainstream Texan culture. Examining the work of the movement’s singer-songwriters (Michael Murphey, Guy Clark, Gary P. Nunn), western swing revivalists (Asleep at the Wheel, Alvin Crow and the Pleasant Valley Boys), and commercial country singers (Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings), this dissertation explores the proliferation of stock imagery, landscape painting, and Texan stereotypes in progressive country music and their role in the construction of Austin’s difference.

  • Early Psychological Warfare in the Hidalgo Revolt
    Early Psychological Warfare In the Hidalgo Revolt HUGH M. HAMILL, JR.* OLONEL TORCUATO TRUJILLO had been sent on a desper­ Cate-almost hopeless-mission by the viceroy of New Spain.1 His orders were to hold the pass at Monte de las Cruces on the Toluca road over which the priest Miguel Hidalgo was expected to lead his insurgent horde. Trujillo's 2,500 men did have the topographical advantage, but the mob, one could hardly call it an army, which advanced toward the capital of the kingdom outnumbered them more than thirty to one. If the vain and un­ popular Spanish colonel failed, the rebels could march unhindered on Mexico City. On October 30, 1810, the forces clashed in a bloody and pro­ longed battle. It was the first time that the unwieldy mass of rebel recruits had faced disciplined soldiers and well serviced artillery in the field. Under such circumstances coordinated attack was dif­ ficult and Hidalgo's casualties were heavy. Toward nightfall Tru­ jillo's troop, though decimated, was able to break out of its encircled position and retreat into the Valley of Anahuac. The insurgents gained the heights of Las Cruces and advanced the next day over the divide and down to the hamlet of Cuajimalpa. The capital of New Spain lay below them. Why was the six weeks old revolution not consummated immediate­ ly by the occupation of Mexico City~ Why, after poising three days above the city, did Hidalgo abandon his goal and retreat~ *The author is assistant professor of history at Ohio Wesleyan University.
