El Poder En La Nueva Guatemala: La Disputa Sobre Los Alcaldes De Barrio, 1761-1821, Jordana Dym Dec 2009

El Poder En La Nueva Guatemala: La Disputa Sobre Los Alcaldes De Barrio, 1761-1821, Jordana Dym

Jordana Dym

"La introducción de alcaldes de barrio en Nueva Guatemala, capital del reino de Guatemala, a finales del siglo XVIII, inició veinte años de pleitos entre el capitán general, la Audiencia, el Cabildo y varios inmigrantes españoles sobre la posición de esta nueva institución de seguridad pública dentro del sistema de organismos de gobierno reales y locales. ¿Dependerían los alcaldes de barrio del Cabildo, autoridad tradicional de policía, o de la Audiencia? ¿Quiénes serían aptos para el servicio, españoles "honrados", "distinguidos", o simplemente "vecinos" del barrio? ¿Qué sería igual a o menor al honor de servir en este nuevo cargo honorífico …

Migrations Du Sacré: Théologies De L'Etat Et De L'Eglise, William Cavanaugh Dec 2009

Migrations Du Sacré: Théologies De L'Etat Et De L'Eglise, William Cavanaugh

William T. Cavanaugh

Face à la crise mondiale, l'État se présente à nouveau comme le sauveur qui peut éviter une plus grande catastrophe. "Nous n’attendons pas seulement de l'État qu’il apporte des solutions techniques aux déséquilibres du marché, écrit William Cavanaugh. Nous voulons, dans un sens plus profond, que l'État absorbe le risque lié à notre vie humaine mortelle. Nous voulons, en d’autres termes, que l'État nous aide à tricher avec la mort." La politique moderne n'est pas le crépuscule des dieux : elle présente tous les signes du péché d'idolâtrie, car la garde du sacré a été transférée de l'Église à l'État. …

Days And Nights Of San Miguel, Marianne Rogoff Dec 2009

Days And Nights Of San Miguel, Marianne Rogoff

Marianne Rogoff

"Continuity
Roosters crow and the plaza comes to life every morning with newsboys, tourists, pigeons and grackles, prayers of the pilgrims, the balloon man, the cigarette lady, the horse with his blinders. Men stride through dressed for business in fresh-shined shoes. Cement façades are yellow gold, burnt red/orange, and keep still as clouds drift across the sun and shadows hover, persist. Rays of light fall from the sky, which is deep blue where it is not white with giant cumulus puffs. Black rain clouds move in, threatening, wind blows balloon streamers, smoke rises from tortilla barbecues, heads turn upward. The …

Confucius, Joseph A. Adler Dec 2009

Confucius, Joseph A. Adler

Joseph Adler

The man we call Confucius was the founder of a religio-philosophical tradition that became almost synonymous with Chinese culture. From the second century BCE to the beginning of the 20th century “Confucianism” (Rujiao, literally “the teaching of the scholars”) was the official ideology of the Chinese imperial government and the reigning philosophy of education. As such, its values eventually permeated all levels of Chinese society. Confucius thereby became a cultural icon and a symbol for both the glories and the failures of traditional Chinese culture.
