註釋Latin America historiography has generally failed to integrate the study of popular movements and rebellions with examinations of the determined efforts of elite establishments to prevent, contain, crush, and, ultimately, ideologically appropriate such rebellions. Most often, these problems are treated separately. This volume seeks to redress this imbalance by probing a set of linkages that is central to the study of Mexico's modern past: the complex, reciprocal relationship between modes of contestation and structures and discourses of power. Blending narrative and analysis in their account and drawing on a rich set of personal testimonies from criminal court records and oral histories, the authors provide a window onto the political action and consciousness of Yucatan's artisans, villagers, and peons, as well as its state builders and revolutionary chiefs.
