  • In Search of the Amazon: Brazil, the United States, and the Nature of A
    IN SEARCH OF THE AMAZON AMERICAN ENCOUNTERS/GLOBAL INTERACTIONS A series edited by Gilbert M. Joseph and Emily S. Rosenberg This series aims to stimulate critical perspectives and fresh interpretive frameworks for scholarship on the history of the imposing global pres- ence of the United States. Its primary concerns include the deployment and contestation of power, the construction and deconstruction of cul- tural and political borders, the fluid meanings of intercultural encoun- ters, and the complex interplay between the global and the local. American Encounters seeks to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between histo- rians of U.S. international relations and area studies specialists. The series encourages scholarship based on multiarchival historical research. At the same time, it supports a recognition of the represen- tational character of all stories about the past and promotes critical in- quiry into issues of subjectivity and narrative. In the process, American Encounters strives to understand the context in which meanings related to nations, cultures, and political economy are continually produced, chal- lenged, and reshaped.

  • Cana, Café, Cacau: Agrarian Structure and Educational Inequalities in Brazil
    CANA, CAFE´ , CACAU: AGRARIAN STRUCTURE AND EDUCATIONAL INEQUALITIES IN BRAZIL* TIM WEGENAST University of Konstanza German Institute of Global and Area Studies ABSTRACT The present paper explores the relationship between agrarian structure and human capital formation between and within Brazil’s federal units. It is argued that whether states’ agriculture is in plantation style, based on cheap coerced labor, or organized around family farming matters for the formulation of educational policies. According to the main claim, landlords were not interested in paying higher taxes to educate the masses and cur- tailed the expansion of schooling in order to keep a cheap workforce and maintain their monopoly over the decision-making process. Describing several episodes in Brazil’s history of public instruction, the paper stresses the distributional conflicts over education as well as the rural aristocracy’s resistance towards broadly-targeted, citizenship-enhancing educational policies. The descriptive evidence is complemented by statistical analyses employing historical as well as more recent data. It is shown that states characterized by a more egalitarian land distribution, which are not under * Received 2 July 2009. Accepted 14 November 2009.

  • Avon Bard Latin American Literature Titles
    Avon Bard Latin American Literature Aguilera-Malta, Demetrio. Seven Serpents & Seven Moons. New York. 1981. Avon/Bard. Translated from the Spanish by Gregory Rabassa. 305 pages. June 1981. paperback. 0380547678. Original title: Siete lunas y siete serpientes, 1970 - Fondo de Cultura Economica, Mexico City. ‘A PRODIGAL TALE OF SURREALISTIC INTRIGUE’ - Chicago Tribune Book World . In the coastal village of Santorontón, the battle between good and evil veers naturally into the unreal. Serving the power of good is Father Cándido, whose wooden Jesus is alive and ready to help. Evil is personified by the Colonel, a compulsive rapist, plunderer and murderer, who enacts his vilest deeds in the guise of a crocodile. Bedevilled by the lust of a woman unfortunately dead, he turns for salvation to the witch doctor’s daughter. Another seductress of Santorontón entices and castrates in the cause of womankind. And, adding to the villainy afoot, a despotic don has traded his soul for control of the water supply. Within this deftly devised entertainment of myth and fantasy, poetic metaphor and comic parody, there is the outraged social consciousness of a celebrated Ecuadorian ‘who deserves a rank;’ says the Houston Chronicle, ‘with the best of the older generation of South American writers’. ‘Aguilera-Malta is an important writer. Some of the hallucinatory scenes in SEVEN SERPENTS AND SEVEN MOONS haunt us as powerfully as those in Cortazar and Garcia Márquez!’ - Times (London) Literary Supplement. DEMETRIO AGUILERA-MALTA, born in turn-of-the- century Ecuador, is a poet, playwright, essayist and novelist. Now recognized as one of the major literary influences in Latin America.
