El nacionalismo de Lucas Alamán

"Nine critical essays by well-known authors (González Casanovas, De la Peña, Eduardo Menéndez, and others) examine role of government and public policies during 1980s. Some issues include health, education and technology policies, Church-State relations, political transformation toward modernization, and new political culture"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

"Revisionist view of the traditional interpretation of 1923 revolt as a reaction against Obregón's imposition of Calles. Authors study four different regional revolts between 1923-24, all with different leaders and provoked by different causes: Rómulo Figueroa in Guerrero, Enrique Estrada in Jalisco, Guadalupe Sánchez in Veracruz, and Fortunato Maycotte in Oaxaca. Rebels failed because of a lack of central control or unifying program. Adolfo de la Huerta played only a 'decorative role' in the armed movement against Obregón"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

"Focuses on the government's liberalization of trade, particularly that with North America. Concludes with an excellent assessment of the pros and cons of the external sector reforms"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

Garc a Cant es un historiador fuera de lo com n, sus textos van siempre m s all de la mera narraci n o del registro ex nime de los hechos. Son una exploraci n cr tica de la memoria hist rica mexicana; significan el rescate de una tradici n viva, y la puesta en cuesti n de las visiones hist ricas inertes: ni historicismo ni ret rica; Garc a Cant prefiere y practica la literatura pol tica como estilo del historiador.
