The main objective of this paper seeks to argue that the Popular Unity represents an important progress regarding the Mapuche people, by incorporating it into its political program; by furthering the Agrarian Reform which increased the amount of land given to the Mapuche; and by promoting the participation of the Mapuche in the elaboration of Indigenous policies. However, it did have a peasant class bias and also an assimilation component, its extreme institutionalism, perhaps unintentionally, attempted against mapuche's interests. At the end, it could not transform the structural relationship of domination of the Mapuche by the Chilean State. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the emergence of smes in Costa Rica from an economic-historical perspective, during the years of 1950-2018. This periodization corresponds to the political structure of each period, according to the business development and the context to be studied during the import substitution development models (1948-1979) and the economic liberation (1982-2018). From the study, it is highlighted that, although at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century the number of smes increases, they face greater business challenges, because the State's economic policy is more inclined to globalized markets, aspects in which the previous enterprises do not have competitive advantages.

This paper combines three issues which try to legitimize the Porfirio Diaz Regime, in Mexico, between 1876-1910. The main idea in this research is that during the second half of the XIX century, we obtained the historic synthesis. This synthesis harmonizes many Mexican pasts, and it translates the neoclassic-architecture style into the artistic tendency which is used to identify the regime. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
