La comuna mexicana
Read moreTitle La comuna mexicana Author Bosteels, Bruno Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683710 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Socialismo y sistemas relacionados Synopsis Mexico, 1521; Paris, 1871. What these dates summarize are not only violent stories, marked by brutal repressions at the end of each episode, they also contain in their resistance a concern for the potential explosion of the common—an explosion whose political form would be, precisely, the commune. Beyond or here of the workers massacred 150 years ago, or the Aztecs killed 500 years ago, what this book proposes to build is a partial history of that underground tradition of communal rebellions in Mexico. Bruno Bosteels traces the survival of a social form whose aspirations, if we follow Marx's most cited texts, were embodied in the Paris Commune and verified in Russia. However, Marx also wrote about Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco, and based on these ethnological notes, Bosteels recovers a communal tradition that remained firm throughout the colonial era and was present in the Mexican Revolution. If the calpulli was its first form, experiences such as those of Morelos, Acapulco and Edendale, to Chiapas and currently Cherán, prove that in Mexico the communal, more than a suspended time or an exceptional moment, opens an expansive form that escapes what It is thought to be immovable: an obstinacy that, through multiple isolated outbreaks, traces its path as a political ideal. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
Relatos de la noche
Read moreTitle Relatos de la noche Author Uriel Reyes Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Suma ISBN 9786073836203 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction: Traditional stories, myths and fairy tales Synopsis Is sound more piercing than silence? Uriel Reyes has poured into these pages bone-chilling stories in which the night comes sharp and lonely. A night like a heavy knife that falls on reality and cracks open an entrance to the paranormal. The creaking of a door, a broken glass, a distorted voice... When the sun sets, these things undergo a literal and metaphorical metamorphosis that pushes us unto a suffocating fear. These events should only be whispered, so as not to summon something terrible. These stories remain unexplained and avoided, as you might wish you never encounter yourself with such events. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -
