Many of the materials falling into the latter category are from the United States in origin, such as anti- Soviet propaganda endorsing the anti-Sandinista "Contra" Freedom Fighters, pamphlets that describe the Sandinista government and Central America in general from an American perspective, and periodicals and reports about Nicaragua written to an American audience. The materials that document the Nicaraguan diaspora are mostly fliers, menus, calendars, brochures, and other genres that were from local Nicaraguan businesses, restaurants, clubs, and other organizations. Some of the materials transcend these two categories, as many that concern the political conditions are addressed to or produced by Nicaraguan exiles. A large part of the collection consists of photocopies of news articles. Writers that are especially represented by the collection include Ruben Dario, Esteban Duque-Estrada, and Luis Mejia Gonzalez. Associations and organizations that are especially represented include Alanzia Revolucionaria Democrática (ARDE), American Defense Foundation, American Defense Lobby. Asociación Nicaragüenses en el Exilio, Asociación Nicaragüense pro Derechos Humanos, Bloque Opositor del Sur (B.O.S.), Council for Interamerican Security, Fundación Ruben Dario, Nicaraguan American Solidarity (NICAS), Nicaraguan Freedom Fighters, Partido Conservador de Nicaragua, Partido Socialcristiano de Nicaragua en el Exilio, Resistencia Nicaragüense, and Unidad Nicaragüense Opositora (UNO). Materials from some of these were grouped together in a series titled "Assocations." University of Miami Special Collections Page 3 ASM0126 Nicaragua collection Also of notice are brochures advertising tourism to Nicaragua during the Sandinista regime, and memorabilia such as a handmade Nicaraguan crest, Nicaraguan paper money from the Sandinista era, and a pin that says "If you like Cuba you'll love Nicaragua."

This dissertation argues that a critical mass of politically committed Nicaraguan writers developed an approach to poetry to articulate their revolutionary hopes not in classical Marxist terms, but as a decisive rupture with the present order that might generate social, spiritual, and natural communion. I use the term “volcanic poetics” to refer to this approach to poetry, and my dissertation explores its vicissitudes in the political and artistic engagements of writers and poets who either sympathized with, or were protagonists of, the Sandinista revolution.

Rosenblum University of New Orleans Working Paper No. 54 June, 2002 University of California-San Diego La Jolla, California 92093-0510 MOVING BEYOND THE POLICY OF NO POLICY: EMIGRATION FROM MEXICO AND CENTRAL AMERICA By Marc R. Rosenblum University of New Orleans [email protected] INCOMPLETE DRAFT: comments very welcome but not yet intended for general circulation! Abstract: Immediately following the 2000-1 inaugurations of Presidents Vicente Fox and George W. Bush, Mexico and the United States entered into intense negotiations aimed at a bilateral guestworker agreement on migration. Although the terror attacks of September, 2001 put these negotiations on hold, the progress which had been made—and the extent to which Mexico set the bilateral agenda—highlight the transnational character of U.S. immigration policy-making. But what do sending-states want when it comes to U.S. immigration policy, and when and how can they influence the process? This paper draws on 90 elite interviews conducted with Mexican, Central American, and Caribbean Basin policy-makers to answer these questions, and discusses Mexico’s increasing engagement in U.S. immigration policy-making since the 1980s.

In the 1970’s, demographics showed that “half of all Central American emigrants (those moving into other countries) relocated to other Central American countries, while half moved out of the region” (Woods, 2006). This immigration to other Central American Countries and the United States was caused by class division within Central American countries, such as Nicaragua. This ultimately led to revolutionaries, counterrevolutionaries, insurgencies, and civil warfare. Central Americans made up about 2.9 million of the total 9.7 million foreign-born population in the USA in 2009 (Terrazas, 2011,1). Changes in US laws in 1965 opened the doors to increased immigration, and larger waves of migration to the US began. These different policies came into place when natives of other countries chose to leave their country due to political turmoil, political persecution, natural disasters, and unlivable conditions. Immigration quotas from this policy allowed family reunification and political asylum in the United States. It offered a safe escape from immigrants’ home countries, which were often overwhelmed by political unrest and economic decline.

It covers the period from the overthrow of Anastasio Somoza Debayle in 1979 to the February 1990 FSLN electoral defeat and the following two months of the Piñata, when the outgoing Sandinista government quickly formalized possession of property by new owners, both formerly landless peasants and the elite.

At first blush, the extraordinary bilateral priority placed on immigration—three cabinet-level semi-summits and three presidential summits in slightly over a year—is hard to explain in light of the Bush’s status as a conservative Republican, and widespread U.S.
