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 -
Necropolitana
Read moreTitle Necropolitana Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851096 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 208 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis A shadow walks through the streets of Mexico City's historic center. Through rites of dark magic, this presence invokes the energies that have been absorbed by the city's old facades throughout its history. Patient and furtive, this Necromancer plots revenge against the one who has condemned his name to oblivion. Thus, his plan seeks to put an end to a duel that dates back to the last days of the conquest and on whose outcome depends the permanence of the Mexican capital and all who inhabit it. After a long season lost in the past, Casasola manages to find a way to return to our present. In turn, thanks to powerful amulets and messages carved in the bronze of the statues, he is made aware of the destiny of chaos and destruction that has always loomed over what was the Great Tenochtitlan. With the help of a restoration architect whose legacy is limited to his father's old library, and allies lost in time, the hardened journalist will have to face forces he never suspected he would face. In the fifth installment of the acclaimed Casasola Saga, Bernardo Esquinca's personal obsession with Mexico City returns with greater intensity than ever, now in the form of multiple scenarios for its complete annihilation. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
