The paper is dedicated to the famous Russian Latin Americanist Vera Nikolaevna Kuteishchikova (1919–2012), who became the second Russian woman after A. Kollontai to be awarded with the Mexican Order of the Aztec Eagle for her merits in the study of Mexican literature. However, V. Kuteishchikova’s specialization was not limited to the Mexican literature; her academic interests included a wide range of issues. The paper demonstrates that she laid the foundations for the scientific study of Latin American literature in Russia and outlined the ways for further research in the field. Therefore, V. Kuteishchikova’s life and work are considered in an inseparable context with the development of Latin American literary studies in Russia. The list of the Russian editions and translations of Latin American writers and the number of critical works published before the 1960s clearly confirm the fact that until then Latin American literary studies did not exist as an independent branch of philological science in Russia, since Russian scholars had a very vague notion of the Latin American literature. The first research work in philology on the Latin American literature was the monograph by V.N. Kuteishchikova Latin American Novel in the XX century (1964). The paper pays special attention to this significant work. An analysis of this book proves that its author identified and revealed a number of essential topics and problems that would be center of Latin American studies in Russia. With an amazing sagacity V.N. Kuteishchikova mapped out a program for Latin American studies for half a century ahead. These ideas were developed in her work in 1970s, in particular, in New Latin American Novel (1976), co-written with her husband, L.S. Ospovat. The paper traces the participation of V.N. Kuteishchikova in the creation of the academic five-volume History of Latin American Literatures; analyzes her last book Moscow – Mexico – Moscow. A Lifelong Road (2000), gives a spiritual portrait of the Russian scholar.

This article explores the activism of Arab Mexicans during the transition from the sultanate of Abdülhamid II, known as the Hamidian regime, and the beginning of the rule of the Committee of Union and Progress, known as the Young Turks government. The paper discusses the activism of intellectuals, social network leaders, and associations that created affinity ties with the Ottoman government and French authorities. These activities aspired to consolidate the diplomatic protection of Ottomans in Mexico. The compilation of primary sources shows the spread of Ottomanism and Francophilia within the first generation of Arab Mexicans. These discourses of affinity are relevant elements to understanding the activism in the Great War and at the dawn of the Mandate system in the Mashriq.

This paper, although ostensibly out of context geographically speaking with the theme of the La Bretagne linguistique colloquium at which it was presented, was nevertheless situated within the same thematic framework from the point of view of some of the diachronic and synchronic aspects that have marked the evolution in the use of vernacular languages throughout history and their relationship to the so-called national languages. There are probable similarities in this respect between some of the sociolinguistic relationships maintained over the centuries between Breton and first Latin then French and between Nahuatl and Spanish. This paper begins by defining the polysynthetic nature of the Aztecs’ language and then considers the specific modalities of language contact between Nahuatl and Spanish throughout history. It looks at the neologisms created in both languages, the religious leaders’ exploitation of the particular discursiveness of the Nahuatl language, the stigma attached to speaking Nahuatl after Mexico’s Independence and the prolific interpenetration of Nahuatl and the Iberian language in the Spanish spoken in Mexico today.

In world's art history copies, replicas, pastiches, imitations and fakes can be almost as old as their models. While many studies have focused on the presence of fakes in Western art, this issue has been the subject of very little investigation in the American context. Still, Native American art, whether pre-Columbian or more recent, is equally concerned by this general phenomenon. It has also been copied, imitated and counterfeited since the XVI century. Beyond the mere detection of forgeries in order to exclude them from public collections, the study of such pieces touches a much wider domain: the history of mentalities and taste. Indeed, influenced by Western thought the "art of deception" becomes successively savage, baroque, romantic and "primitivist". thus reflecting the changing image of the Americas during five centuries. In this context the Mexican production is exemplary and this paper presents its main aspects: américaineries from the XVII and XVlll centuries, Tlatelolco pottery production, "Aztec" crystal skulls, Teotihuacan masks, Zapotec burial urns, Guerrero statues, Veracruz "style", and Monte Alban "imitations". Each one of these categories illustrates a particular impression of the New World, too often obscure, uncanny and feared. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyses relations among FEDEDAM, Eureka Comitee and AFADEM during the 80s as a training space for memories of enforced disappearances. We examine from primary sources, some written some oral, the organisations’ trajectories and spots of memories’ production and circulation. We assert that within the common work concerning denunciation and search for justice, narrarives were made up as well as transnational memorial practices shared by parents’ organizations in Mexico and through the Latin American network issued by the federation.

Monsters are liminal beings that not only portray fears, proscriptions and collective norms, they are also embedded with special qualities that scare and, at the same time, captivate people’s inquisitiveness. Monstrosities are present in practically all cultures; they remain alive, being passed from one generation to another, often altering their characteristics over time. Modernity and science have not ended people’s belief in paranormal beings; to the contrary, they are still vivid and fresh, with contemporary societies updating and incorporating them into daily life. This paper analyses one of the most well-known legends of Mexico and Latin America, the ghost of “La Llorona” (the weeping woman). The legend of La Llorona can be traced to pre-Hispanic cultures in Mexico, however, the presence of a phantasmagoric figure chasing strangers in rural and urban places has spread across the continent, from Mexico and Central America, to Latino communities in the United States of America. The study of this liminal creature aims to provide a deep sense of her characteristics – through spaces, qualities and meanings; and to furthermore understand how contemporary societies have adopted and modernised this figure, including through the internet. The paper analyses different versions of the legend shared across online platforms and are analysed using Jeffrey Jerome Cohen’s (1996) theoretical tool described in his work Monster Culture (Seven Theses), which demonstrates La Llorona’s liminal qualities.

The paper seeks to identify the demographic trends, especially mobility, of the growth of small towns in a South Eastern Mexico region (Tehuantepec). The urbanization processes observed are characterized by the limited resources available, not only in term of services but also with regard to employment or provision of housing. However, the four urbanization patterns observed in this paper play a bridging role: between two chapters in migration stories, between productive rural area and urban employment market. It is in this way, by settlement far from the center, at the edge of small rural towns, that families look for a compromise between the declining family farming and rural economies and the difficulty in accessing urban resources.

This paper seeks to diagnose the phenomenon of children and adolescent labour in Mexico from the legal and empirical perspective, while expecting to make visible underlying, persistent and oftenly hidden realities. With this framework, we present a general path concerning some legal instruments that allow us to define and categorize the studied phenomenon, and we carry out an empirical analysis from a series of indicators developed in the Module of child labour included in the National Survey of Occupation and Employment raised by National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía, INEGI) in 2009. Information and analyzed data allow us to conclude in a broad manner that the constitutional and legal prohibition to child labour has not fulfill its eradication, further more, not starting from the approach of rights has implied a position of more vulnerability to underage persons who work due to several circumstances, whether economical, social or cultural. En este trabajo se busca realizar una aproximación diagnóstica al fenómeno del trabajo infantil y adolescente en México con miras a visibilizar aspectos que han estado invisibilizados a lo largo del tiempo, desde la perspectiva legal y empírica. En este marco, se hace un recorrido general de algunos instrumentos legales que permiten definir y categorizar el fenómeno, y se realiza un análisis empírico a partir de una serie de indicadores surgidos del Módulo de Trabajo Infantil incluido en la Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo levantada por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía en el año 2009. La información manejada, así como los datos analizados permiten concluir de manera general que la prohibición constitucional y legal del trabajo infantil no ha conseguido su erradicación, y el no partir de un enfoque de derechos colocaría en una posición de mayor vulnerabilidad a las personas menores de edad que trabajan por diversas circunstancias, ya sean económicas, sociales o culturales.DOWNLOAD THIS PAPER FROM SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2065763

Archaeological sites are places that allow different social and political uses of the past. This is particularly true in areas where the remains of ancient cities are subject to negotiations between national, local and/or ethnic identities. In this paper I focus on ceremonies celebrated in Maya sites by actors who attach social and ritual values to them in the present, in opposition to their hegemonic uses and valorizations. I analyze the relocation of the fuego sagrado ceremony into archaeological sites as a counter-power action which suggests the existence of a transnational Maya territory and evokes a cultural resistance against colonialism. This study is particularly interested in the appropriation and adaptation of this ceremony in the Yucatan Peninsula, specifically in the Guatemalan department of Petén and in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, from the 1990s to the present day.

This paper deals with memory’s sense and memorial politics that have arisen in Mexico during the Andrés Manuel López Obrador's administration since 2018. Based on the concept of memorial regime, we shall see that one of the actual politics’s singularities is the foundation of a public culture of repentance and the establishing of memory institutions which concern Colonial Era’s memory as well as Mexican national history.

The article deals with the history of the so-called Mexican notebook of Mayakovsky, he traveled with from Europe to America and back in 1925. The notebook preserves one record in Spanish made by José Manuel Puig Casauranc, Minister of Public Education in Mexico, and traces of torn pages. According to Mayakovsky's testimony, Casauranc’s record was followed by a brief appeal to the working people of Soviet Russia, written in Spanish by the deputy F. Moreno, which the poet destroyed when crossing the US border, fearing political complications. It was suggested that two separate pages from Mayakovsky archive with the autographs of F.-T. Marinetti in French belong to this notebook. Drawing on new archival and memoir sources, the paper explores social, cultural and biographical circumstances of getting the autograph. Particular attention is paid to the interpretation of the goals and results of Mayakovsky's trip to Mexico, his contacts (Alfonso Reyes, Diego Rivera, Manuel Casauranc, Francisco Moreno, Tina Modotti, List Arsubido). On the basis of historical, literary and textual analysis of the Mexican notebook, its publication as part of the 19th volume of the Complete Collection of Works by V.V. Mayakovsky in 20 vols. (IWL RAS) is justified.

Se da cuenta de las discusiones que se dieron principalmente en la medicina legal mexicana acerca de la prudencia de las regulaciones sobre el matrimonio consanguíneo que fueron decretadas en los códigos civiles para el Distrito Federal de 1871 y 1884. Se muestra que el ánimo de las mismas llevó a que sus autores pugnaran por la necesidad de la vigilancia médica de las uniones entre parientes en virtud de un ánimo profiláctico sostenido en una visión nihilista de la herencia patológica. Se concluye en proponer una lectura filosófica que abandona los antiguos campos de lo 'externo' y lo 'interno'.This paper analyzes the discussions in the field of legal medicine in Mexico about the prudence of regulations concerning intermarriage that were decreed in the civil codes for the Federal District of 1871 and 1884. It shows that the heated debate forced the authors of the regulations to struggle for the need for medical vigilance of marriages between relatives, as a preventive measure sustained in a nihilistic vision of the pathological inheritance. The paper concludes by proposing a philosophical analysis that abandons the old fields of the "external" and the "internal".

Mexico’s 20th century is generally linked to the myth of the « Revolution » (term used by Luis Cabrera, since its beginnings in 1911). This paper provides us information on the revolutionary process and on the debates about its evolution and its « crisis », mostly after the 40's. The paper also revises the positive connotations of the word « revolution », used by its protagonists, by thinkers and as by historiography, in different ways of « civil war » and of « la bola », popular name used in 19th century's Mexico (by the novelist Emilio Rabasa ) to evoke popular and unorganized uprisings.

Globally, groundwater use is intensifying to meet demands for irrigation, urban supply, industrialization, and, in some instances, electrical power generation. In response to hydroclimatic variability, surface water is being substituted with groundwater, which must be viewed as a strategic resource for climate adaptation. In this sense, the supply of electricity for pumping is an adaptation policy tool. Additionally, planning for climate-change mitigation must consider CO2 emissions resulting from pumping. This paper examines the influence of electricity supply and pricing on groundwater irrigation and resulting emissions, with specific reference to Mexico – a climate-water-energy ‘perfect storm’. Night-time power supply at tariffs below the already-subsidized rates for agricultural groundwater use has caused Mexican farmers to increase pumping, reversing important water and electricity conservation gains achieved. Indiscriminate groundwater pumping, including for virtual-water exports of agricultural produce, threatens the long-term sustainability of aquifers, non-agricultural water uses, and stream-aquifer interactions that sustain riparian ecosystems. Emissions resulting from agricultural groundwater pumping in Mexico are estimated to be 3.6% of total national emissions and are equivalent to emissions from transporting the same agricultural produce to market. The paper concludes with an assessment of energy, water, and climate trends coupled with policy futures to address these challenges.

ResumenEl propósito de este artículo es mostrar la experiencia de las reformas de las políticas educativas en México desde una perspectiva de investigación de políticas, la cual aporta evidencia útil para otros casos latinoame- ricanos. Se muestra por qué la dinámica de cambio y continuidad de las políticas favorece en mayor medida resultados de cobertura, al mismo tiempo que se hace visible el potencial analítico de esta perspectiva para mejorar la capacidad de intervención gubernamental a la luz de la resolución de problemas pendientes en la agenda de las políticas. Se concluye que el cambio hacia la calidad y equidad está en función de dos tipos de reformas y, por tanto, de dos tipos de agendas, una política (politics) y otra de políticas (policy).AbstractThe aim of this paper is to introduce the experience of education policies reforms in Mexico from a perspective of policy research, contributing useful findings for other Latin American cases. The dynamics of change and continuity of policies are shown to favor coverage. Also, the advantage of this pers- pective for the improvement of governments' intervention capacity and the solution of unresolved problems in policy agendas is made clear. The paper concludes that the change toward quality and equity is part of two types of reforms and, therefore, of two types of agendas: a political agenda and a policies agenda.RésuméLe propos de cet article est celui de montrer l'expérience des reformes politiques éduca- tives au Mexique depuis une perspective de re- cherche de politiques, laquelle fournit une évidence utile pour d'autres cas en Amérique Latine.

A review from the field of primary education, a research project that aimed to identify the social representations about Inclusion of diversity at schools present among teachers, management and supervi- sors in primary educations in Mexico. This paper presents the analysis of the discourse of those (female) teachers called collaborating teachers. A qualitative methodology is ap- plied to analyze the circumstances in which the social representations of these teachers are produced and go round, and what prob- lems they face when incorporating inclusion in the classroom. The results show how social representations guide the teacher's attitudes, values, and behavior in the classroom.RésuméCet article découle de la recherche Les repré- sentations sociales par rapport à l'inclusion.

Ethnic Identity and Ethnic Political Activity Don’t Necessarily Go Hand in Hand. Identitary Expressions Among the Teenek and Nahua of the Veracruzan Huasteca.In the Huasteca region, in Mexico’s northeast, two Indians groups, the Nahua and the Teenek, experience the interaction with cultural otherness and with modern, national society in very different ways. This paper compares the Teenek position toward the Other to the one of their nearby Nahua neighbors. While the Teenek position is more reserved and hermetic, the Nahua position toward the Other is characterized by more active and assertive participation outside their communities. The cultural strategies of both groups appear to be radically opposed. Nonetheless, none of these two groups is involved in Indian political militancy and their ethnic identity is expressed in more discrete ways. The comparison between the two groups help us understand the character of the differentiated interactions of two neighboring ethnic groups with the modern world and national society that may be rooted in each group’s particular worldview and history. From a theoretical standpoint, this paper addresses the problem of the cultural and social construction of collective identities and Otherness in modern and multicultural societies, proposing to reconstruct the concept of ethnicity from a cognitive perspective rather than as identity politics.

The article analyses how social protection systems in Latina America have responded to the serious social situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Guided by an exploratory study, the paper focuses on the experiences of Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. The analysis considers that the responses produced by the three cases results from the intersection between the institutional structure’s previous legacy of the social protection systems existing in each country, the political orientation of the governments in exercise and the social and political dynamics in the sanitary crisis context. It seems that, despite protective measures of greater or lesser scope and magnitude, which either reinforce the existing social protections or introduce new mechanisms – all of them temporary – the social crisis specific to Latin American social formations has worsened in the countries studied.

In the year 1960, a decade of changes in the anthroponymic usages began as a reflection of the social transformations that would start to occur from that moment on in Mexico and around the world. This paper aims at evaluating just to what extent the traditional attribution model by choosing from the Catholic calendar is still the dominant one during that period of time. A sample of baptism certificates gathered from the Cathedral of Tlalnepantla de Baz, a municipality adjacent to Mexico City, is analyzed. This is the first phase of a broader project on socioanthroponymy in which intergenerational transmission of names, the influence of fashion as a social phenomenon and various lexicological elements will also be considered. The theoretical basis on which the project is built comes from the European works in onomastics (especially from the French school: Van Langendonck, 2007; Fabre, 1987; Vaxelaire, 2008), pragmasemantics (Kleiber, 1995; Jonasson, 1994; Gary-Prieur, 1994; Hébert, 2004) and socioanthroponymy (Aldrin, 2011; Bramwell, 2011; Gerritzen, 2006). As part of a later stage, the results from this project will be compared with those previously obtained from analyzing birth certificates of that same year Significant differences are not expected at this point.

This paper analyses how the relationship between gender, domestic and public space can be seen as a way to reinforce roles or subvert them. In this context, it is essential to show how gender relations are structured socially through urban spaces, especially how limits established by stereotypes of feminine mysticism are understood as a set of discourses and presuppositions about a passive femininity that block the participation of women in the struggle for the city. An international reference framework is constructed to illustrate how different urban struggles demystify this image. Through a case study at Pedregal de Santo Domingo in Mexico City is analysed how they are the ones that often build parallel urban projects and inform against the neoliberal urban transformation that lurks their neighbourhoods.

Abstract. This paper analyzes the homicide of young men in Mexico. it shows bothe victimization and responsability of men in this crime. Finally, some intersections around youth violence, crime and gender men are discussed

Résumé : Cet article s’attache à mettre en évidence les liens de nature qui unissent la ville et le désert, deux espaces géographiques et symboliques apparemment antithétiques au plus haut point, dans l’œuvre romanesque de Roberto Bolaño. Dans un contexte géopolitique et migratoire mondialisé, la ville frontalière de Santa Teresa – double littéraire de Ciudad Juárez – cristallise les passages du sud du continent américain vers les États-Unis : ce sas migratoire constitue, en l’occurrence, le décor semble-t-il consubstantiel de milliers de féminicides. Si la ville se présente traditionnellement comme l’incarnation géographique et comme la réalisation spatiale d’une forme d’achèvement politique et civilisationnel, l’œuvre de Bolaño confronte son lecteur à la débâcle des prétentions civiles de la cité. Pour tenter d’expliquer le paradoxe d’une urbanité barbare, cet article se propose d’élucider la manière dont Santa Teresa apparaît poétiquement construite comme l’incubateur topologique du mal absolu dans les romans de l’écrivain chilien. Resumen: En este artículo se busca evidenciar los vínculos intrínsecos que unen ciudad y desierto en la obra de Roberto Bolaño, a pesar del carácter por lo visto altamente antitético de ambas entidades geográficas y simbólicas. En un contexto geopolítico y migratorio globalizado, la ciudad fronteriza de Santa Teresa –trasunto literario de Ciudad Juárez– cristaliza los flujos que llegan desde el sur del continente americano hacia los Estados Unidos: esta esclusa migratoria constituye, más concretamente, el escenario aparentemente consubstancial de miles de feminicidios. Si la ciudad se presenta tradicionalmente como la encarnación geográfica y como la realización espacial de cierta forma de logro político y civilizacional, la obra de Bolaño sin embargo enfrenta su lector a la desbandada de las pretensiones civiles de la ciudad. Para intentar explicar dicha paradoja de una bárbara urbanidad, este artículo se propone desentrañar la manera en que Santa Teresa se ve poéticamente elaborada como incubador topológico del mal absoluto. Abstract: This paper wishes to bring out the intrinsic links that seem to relate the city and the desert in Roberto Bolaño’s novels, despite the apparent antithesis of these two geographic and symbolic entities. In globalized geopolitical and migratory contexts, the border city of Santa Teresa—a fictional lookalike of Ciudad Juárez—gathers the traffic flows which connect the south of the American continent to the United States: this migratory airlock constitutes the apparently consubstantial scenery of thousands of feminicides. While, on the one hand, the city usually appears as the geographical embodiment and as the spatial realization of a certain form of political and civilizational achievement, on the other hand, Bolaño’s opus nonetheless leaves its readers facing the defeat of the city’s civilizational ambitions. This article attempts to clarify how Santa Teresa is here literarily built as a topological incubator of absolute evil, and aims at showing how this case exemplifies the paradox of a barbaric urbanity.

This paper explores three Mexican fiction feature films internationally released in 2011: Miss Bala, Days of grace and El Infierno. The movies propose three different criminality’s representations related to drug trafficking. Therefore, we try to draw various archetypes of the drug dealer’s body in films. How do filmmakers depict their character, their physical appearance and metamorphosis and their integration into a group? To what extent are these accusing portraits? Do they contribute to maintain the attraction towards this figure, fictional as well as real?
