In a context marked by structural inequalities, internal, international and transnational migration, as well as persistent practices of exclusion and racism, this book invites us to rethink education from the perspective of inclusion, equity and social justice. Aimed at primary and secondary school teachers, trainers and education authorities. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Historia mínima de las aboliciones de la esclavitud en Hispanoamérica
Read moreTitle Historia mínima de las aboliciones de la esclavitud en Hispanoamérica Author Rafael Rojas Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647647 Edition number 1 Publication year 2026 Pages 190 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis As a form of labour exploitation and as a legal and political institution that deprived hundreds of thousands of people of African descent of their fundamental rights, slavery continued in Spanish America following the independence movements of the early 19th century. Abolition took place successively in those republics between 1820 and 1860 and reached Spain’s last Caribbean colonies, Puerto Rico and Cuba, between 1870 and 1886. This book recounts how more than 330,000 Black slaves came to be classified into various categories of freed persons following the abolition of slavery in Chile in 1823 and in Cuba in 1886. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
La clandestinidad anarquista
Read moreTitle La clandestinidad anarquista Author Clara E. Lida Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647326 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 237 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis The clandestine nature of revolutionary movements in general, and of anarchism in particular, has been scarcely studied. This book explores early Spanish anarchism from its introduction into Spain in 1868, and analyses the mechanisms it devised to operate openly, when circumstances permitted, or to continue in secret in the face of persecution. These pages pay particular attention to the clandestine decade to which anarchists—both men and women—resorted following the repression of the Paris Commune and its continental repercussions in 1871. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Historia mínima de Irán moderno
Read moreTitle Historia mínima de Irán moderno Author Moisés Garduño García Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647104 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 260 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis This book defines ‘modern Iran’ as the political, economic, social and cultural landscape that emerged from the encounter between the Qajar dynasty and the European industrial powers in the late 18th century and which, over time, has evolved to become the Islamic Republic of Iran as we know it today. In an effort to understand the tensions running through that society, A Brief History of Modern Iran traces the most significant historical processes and events of the last three centuries, to explain the emergence of one of the central and most influential players in the turbulent geopolitical landscape of the Middle East. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Redistribución: cómo entendemos la desigualdad para lograr un nuevo pacto social
Read moreTitle Redistribución: cómo entendemos la desigualdad para lograr un nuevo pacto social Author Raymundo M. Campos Vázquez; Alice Krozer; Aurora A. Ramírez Álvarez Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647470 Edition number 1 Publication year 2026 Pages 266 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis Why do we not demand greater redistribution in countries with such high levels of inequality? Drawing on surveys, interviews and original experiments, the authors show how perceptions of inequality, social mobility, taxation and merit shape our preferences and, ultimately, fiscal policy. Mexico is the central case study: a society that recognises inequality, distrusts the government and wants those who have the most to pay more, but which at the same time overestimates its social mobility and makes its support conditional on the tax contributions of the elites. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Las grandes obras de la literatura mesopotámica
Read moreTitle Las grandes obras de la literatura mesopotámica Author Jorge Silva Castillo; Francisco Segovia (editor) Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647579 Edition number 1 Publication year 2026 Pages 239 Format Print and digital THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies Synopsis The discovery of literature written in cuneiform came as a huge surprise, as it contained precursors to several biblical books. This book highlights this in the subtitles of two of the four works it includes: the Atra-hasis is a Babylonian Genesis, and the three separate dialogues are reminiscent of the wisdom books of the Bible. These subtitles are not merely a marketing ploy aimed at the general public, for the intention is not to capitalise on a similarity but to establish a genuine precedence: the Bible drew upon Akkadian sources, which in turn drew upon Sumerian sources. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Métodos cualitativos en el estudio de las Relaciones Internacionales
Read moreTitle Métodos cualitativos en el estudio de las Relaciones Internacionales Author Nain Martínez; Marta Tawil (editores) Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075647609 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 276 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis The predominance of English-language discourse on research methods in International Relations has limited the points of reference available to Latin American academia. The book, originally conceived and written in Spanish, offers an overview of the main qualitative research methods in International Relations. Its chapters combine conceptual reflection with applied research and guide the reader from defining the subject of study to implementing analytical strategies, with examples relating to Mexican foreign policy, international politics and regional studies. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Susana Rosales; Gilberto Conde (editores) Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646848 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 405 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis This work offers, from an intersectional perspective, an exploration of violence, gender and resistance from the Global South. In the current global context of genocide, displacement, conflict, armed struggle and stark inequality, women, children and minority groups are the most severely affected by the brutal practices of oppression that are perpetuated in conjunction with prevailing colonial narratives. The book engages in a South-South dialogue based on studies of gender, violence and resistance, as phenomena that bear similarities in Latin America and the Middle East. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

In search of that anecdote that would trace the path followed by “the most Mexican of drinks,” the author of this work has been rummaging through archives and libraries since 1970 to offer readers practically everything that has been clarified on the subject, from the most remote times to the present day. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

It explores the role of indigenous languages throughout this process, assessing their contributions, as well as the various ways in which the people of New Spain and later Mexico have conceived of their own language. It provides a brief review of the main scientific contributions that have been made to the study of Mexican Spanish and, finally, outlines the role of Mexican Spanish as the center of influence for the language, as well as the main effects that contemporary globalization may have on it. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Behemoth. Violencia colectiva, polìtica y criminal en el México contemporáneo
Read moreTitle Behemoth. Violencia colectiva, polìtica y criminal en el México contemporáneo Author Marco Estrada Saavedra Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646664 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 368 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis Collective, political, and criminal violence are not new phenomena in Mexico. Resorting to them is a well-established and accepted way of doing politics, establishing social ties, and organizing society by state, social, and organized crime actors. This book presents an original analysis of the use and effects of these forms of violence in three episodes of current national life: state repression against the People's Front in Defense of the Land of San Salvador Atenco and its allies (2006), the armed uprising of the Michoacán self-defense groups against the terror and plundering of the Knights Templar (2012-2015), and the persecution, murder, and disappearance of the Ayotzinapa teacher training college students (2014). foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Insurrección, anarquía, revolución: una anatomía política del instantes
Read moreTitle Insurrección, anarquía, revolución: una anatomía política del instantes Author Humberto Beck Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646909 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 239 Format Print and digital THEMA Philosophy and Religion Synopsis From 1739 onwards, the question of radical change became one of the central themes of modern politics. From then on, a constellation of figures and movements began to form with a vision of political change based on the idea of a sudden interruption in the continuity of the established order, that is, of an instantaneous present that suspends the usual flow of time. This work offers an intellectual history of the language of instantaneous time by exploring three figures representative of the notion of sudden rupture in modern political thought: insurrection, anarchy, and revolution. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Historia mínima del rock en América Latina
Read moreTitle Historia mínima del rock en América Latina Author Abel Gilbert; Pablo Alabarces Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646763 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 324 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archeology Synopsis For the authors of this book, the history of Latin American rock intersects failed modernization processes with states of political exception. Although all countries in the region experienced a similar initial phase, linked to the reproduction of the American rock scene, the development of each type of rock music is deeply connected to the forms that modernization took in each society in the 1960s: contradictory and varied modernizations, related to “regularly exceptional” political histories. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Comer fuera en América Latina
Read moreTitle Comer fuera en América Latina Author Tiana Bakic; Paloma Villagómez; editoras Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646695 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 369 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis Eating food prepared outside the home is a practice that has become increasingly important in the population's repertoire of food alternatives, especially in urban contexts. Latin America is a diverse and complex setting in which this practice shows converging changes and continuities, but also varies according to regional contexts, local identities, and exposure to global economic and cultural processes. This work brings together empirical studies that analyze the economic, cultural, political, spatial, and even socio-affective dimensions of eating out in cities in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

In an extraordinary effort of synthesis, it reviews proposals and actions undertaken by a variety of women's collectives: from the formulation of the first feminisms to the unprecedented experience of our days, when women's demands nurture massive popular expressions, as never before. We also note the vigorous anti-patriarchal action that is sweeping Latin America and shaking the younger generations in particular. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Fábregas Puig Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075642581 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 278 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis When the ships captained by Christopher Columbus entered the waters of the Caribbean Sea, one of the most complex processes of induced acculturation on the planet began. This work traces the continuity of that process through the state policies implemented in Latin America in relation to indigenous peoples. This book presents the historical keys to Latin American indigenism through case studies in Mexico, Guatemala, Ecuador and Peru. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -
Historia mínima de la aviación comercial
Read moreTitle Historia mínima de la aviación comercial Author Federico Lazarín Miranda Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075643854 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 296 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis At the end of the Great War in 1919, William L. Mitchel -theorist and father of military aviation in the United States- predicted that air passengers would be as common as train passengers and that distances between major cities would be calculated in flight hours instead of kilometers. In 1936, John A. Wilson, head of Civil Aviation Canada, coined the term World's Airways System, which he claimed would represent a revolution in transportation. Such predictions are the guiding threads of this book. The reader will appreciate the evolution and competition among airlines for world markets, from 1919 to the current situation resulting from the covid-19 pandemic. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

How can we explain the sympathy of popular sectors towards the thought and political action of the right? The book investigates the course of the Latin American right wing between the end of the 19th century and the present. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Policía y sociedad en la Ciudad de México, 1860-1940 Author Diego Pulido Esteva Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075644981 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 638 Format Print and digital THEMA History and Archaeology Synopsis This book invites the reader to think historically about the relationship between police and society in Mexico City through a journey through the institutions, spaces, subjects and their practices from the mid-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century. By inquiring into these aspects, the social face of the subjects that formed the police is drawn and their practices are examined. From this perspective, police officers played a leading role in the creation of the laws of the street, understood as a set of arrangements in the discretionary application of legal ordinances. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Separatism is connected to the practice of state sovereignty, but also to group identity: it is a failure of Indonesian identity and an expression of a distinct local identity. Theories of separatism favor certain explanatory variables, such as poverty or religion, but, as this study shows, the phenomenon is much more complicated. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

The result is an ethnographic anthology of exceptional value that seeks to broaden the comparative and theoretical horizons of the anthropology of Christianity in Ibero-America. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx
