Mexico's Superior Health Council and the American Public Health Association: The Transnational Archive of Porfirian Public Health, 1887-1910

Ross, P. — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 11:26:35 PDT

In the late nineteenth century, Mexico's Superior Health Council devised a consistent and assertive international strategy around alignment with international scientific standards, the control of disease certification on Mexican soil by Mexican experts, transparent disease reporting, internationally demonstrated competence in campaigns against tropical disease, and participation in multilateral health agreements. The council came to command a central role in the regime of Porfirio Díaz (1877–1911), mainly because this international strategy enabled a successful defense of Mexican sovereignty. In the arena of public health, the council, led by Eduardo Licéaga, came close to realizing the Científicos' dream of Mexican development "without U.S. investment." This was largely because the council obtained independent access to European ideas and technologies prior to its engagement with the United States, which began in 1890 when the first Mexican delegation attended the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association (APHA). Through a persistent and creative diplomatic campaign, taking advantage of relationships cultivated through the APHA, Porfirio Díaz's sanitary advisors persuaded many of their American counterparts that Mexican experts could be trusted partners in defending the health of the western hemisphere. The article describes the Atlantic world of Mexican medicine in the nineteenth century, the significance of public health within a context shaped by rising U.S. imperialism, the key role played by Licéaga, and Mexico's participation in the APHA.

Other Americas: Transnationalism, Scholarship, and the Culture of Poverty in Mexico and the United States

Rosemblatt, K. A. — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 11:26:36 PDT

The anthropologist Oscar Lewis first used the term "culture of poverty" in a 1959 article on Mexico. Within months, the idea that the poor had a distinct culture became part of a passionate, decade-long, worldwide debate about poverty. Scholars, policy makers, and broader publics discussed what caused poverty and how to remedy it. How entrenched were the class and racial differences that led to poverty? How did those differences affect a country's standing in the community of nations? This article tracks the concept of a culture of poverty as a way of probing the reciprocal, if unequal, connections between Mexico and the United States and their relation to national narratives and policy debates. It tracks how Lewis's formulation of a culture of poverty drew on his training as an anthropologist in the United States, his extensive dialogue with Mexican intellectuals, and his fieldwork in Mexico. It also shows how Lewis and others reformulated the notion in response to intense public controversies in Mexico and Puerto Rico; the vehement U.S. discussions surrounding the War on Poverty and Daniel Patrick Moynihan's report on the Negro family, and larger events such as the Cuban Revolution, the U.S. civil rights movement, decolonization, the Vietnam War, and second-wave feminism.

History and the Contours of Meaning: The Abjection of Luisa Nevarez, First Woman Condemned to the Gallows in Puerto Rico, 1905

del Carmen Baerga-Santini, M. — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 11:26:36 PDT

The article analyzes the case of Luisa Nevárez, the first woman condemned to the gallows in Puerto Rico at the beginning of the twentieth century. Convicted for the killing of her almost year-old daughter, she never admitted the crime nor showed any remorse. Yet, Luisa did not make an easy transition into the sphere of the criminal. The nascent identity that was being forged in early twentieth-century Puerto Rico configured the delinquent as a masculine subject who was acknowledged as possessing intellectual malice and the capacity for social action. Luisa's condition as a woman, mother, and mulatta, her ignorance, and other factors deprived her of any possibility of entering the space of the criminal subject. Instead, the figure of Luisa oscillated between monster and madwoman in the discourses of the time. Around the mid-twentieth century her discursive figure emerges again, this time in the authorized voices of those concerned with criminal activities on the island. In this context, we find her embodying the prototype of the criminal woman: degenerate, ugly, black, and sexually insatiable. It is Luisa's abject condition that places her on the threshold of history and on the borders of the intelligible. However, the impossibility of explaining her actions in a rational way constitutes a formidable challenge for the historian. In this respect, the article is also a reflection on the limits and possibilities of the representative faculties of the historical narrative.

"The Tyrant Is Dead!" The Revolt of the Periquitos in Bahia, 1824

Reis, J. J., Kraay, H. — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:56:06 PDT

This article analyzes politics in the Brazilian province of Bahia from mid-1823 when Portuguese troops were expelled from the capital of Salvador to early 1825. During this time many opposed the province's adhesion to the increasingly authoritarian monarchy of Pedro I established in Rio de Janeiro in 1822. It focuses on the October–November 1824 rebellion of the Periquitos battalion and the other manifestations of social and political unrest of these years. These radical liberal movements expressed many Bahians' mistrust of the monarch, particularly after he closed the constituent assembly in November 1823 and imposed a constitution in March 1824. They also evinced strong sympathy with the Confederação do Equador rebellion centered in Pernambuco, although the Bahian movements failed to establish a formal connection with that province's resistance to the emperor. Bahia's radical liberals drew strong support from the nonwhite lower classes in the city of Salvador and from the army rank and file. These popular movements reveal the widespread appeal of the radical liberal program. The repression that followed these movements indicates that the Bahian planter class accepted the centralized monarchy as a guarantor of social order and abandoned its desire for greater control over local affairs.

The Race to Progress: Census Taking and Nation Making in Brazil (1870-1920)

Loveman, M. — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:56:06 PDT

From the mid-nineteenth century, central statistics agencies contributed to nation-state building through their dual mission of producing statistical description and policy prescription in the name of national progress. This article examines how one such agency, Brazil's Directoria Geral de Estatística, worked to simultaneously measure and promote national progress from 1870 to 1920. The article documents a fundamental shift in this period in the DGE's vision of the qualities of the population essential for Brazil's progress as a nation. In the 1870s, the DGE saw educational statistics as the key measures of national progress and lobbied for government investment in primary schools to ensure the advancement of the nation. By the 1920s, the DGE looked instead to immigration and racial statistics to measure progress and advocated cultural and biological "whitening" of the population to improve the Brazilian nation. Analysis of a broad range of archival and published primary sources reveals the gradual racialization of the DGE's institutional definition of "progress." The study contributes to a growing body of research that examines how racial thought influenced the development and official practices of state agencies in Latin America.

The Creolization of the New World: Local Forms of Identification in Urban Colonial Peru, 1560-1640

Graubart, K. B. — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 07:56:06 PDT

This article investigates two local coinages used in notarial documents, especially wills and real estate sales contracts, in urban early colonial Peru: the "indio solarero" and the "indio criollo." These terms, apparently invented by the indigenous parties or with their approval, suggest that these residents were inventing new roles for themselves and took pains to bring attention to their new social positions as property-owners ("solarero," or owner of a solar), Spanish speakers, Catholics, and city dwellers ("criollo," or born in the city rather than in a rural community). The indigenous men and women who utilized these terms had accumulated some of the social markers of colonial success—real estate, slaves, imported clothing, language, religion—and while they may have been few in number and unlikely to turn their world upside down, they saw themselves as having achieved according to the new standards that they embraced, whether slightly or wholeheartedly. By identifying and understanding the idiosyncratic language they used to identify themselves (as opposed to labels such as "Indian" placed upon them by outsiders), the article approaches the possibility of gaining access to the mentalité of these urban colonial residents.

Acerca de la relacion entre el Radicalismo argentino y la "clase media" (una vez mas)

Adamovsky, E. — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 14:42:42 PDT

Es una creencia profundamente arraigada en el sentido común que la Unión Cívica Radical (UCR) –el más antiguo de los partidos políticos argentinos– canalizó los intereses de una "clase media" que, según se afirma, experimentó un crecimiento notable a partir de fines del siglo XIX de la mano de un proceso de "modernización". Más aún, el caso de los radicales argentinos ha sido utilizado como ejemplo de procesos y tensiones de la modernización que afectaron a todo el subcontinente. En los últimos tiempos, el papel de la clase media en América Latina viene siendo reexaminado. La propia utilización de los conceptos de "clase media" y de "modernización" ha sido objeto de análisis críticos. En estudios recientes, la clase media viene dejando de ser una entidad cuya existencia social se presupone, para convertirse en un tipo de identidad específica cuya emergencia es necesario explicar. El objetivo de este artículo es contribuir al debate analizando los modos en los que la UCR pudo haber participado en la constitución de una "clase media" en Argentina, y los contextos políticos específicos en los que esto tuvo lugar. Sostendremos que, más que canalizar los intereses de una clase media previamente existente, la UCR contribuyó a la formación de tal identidad social mediante apelaciones discursivas motivadas más por necesidades y oportunidades político-ideológicas que por una vocación de vehiculizar intereses sectoriales particulares.

Economic Elites, Regional Cleavages, and the First Attempts at Introducing the Income Tax in Argentina

Roman, J. A. S. — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 14:42:42 PDT

This article analyzes Minister Víctor Molina's 1924 income tax proposal, one of the first attempts to introduce this tax in Argentina, and explores the reasons for its failure. Argentine governments did not show a permanent commitment to fiscal reform during the 1920's, mainly because the economic situation was not dire and the Treasury was able to finance its deficits through foreign debts due to the good performance of Argentine external sector. Nonetheless, Molina's proposal was passed by the Chamber of Deputies and therefore it could have been the first income tax law in the country. Public opinion, intellectuals, and economists seemed to be persuaded that income tax was the solution to Argentine fiscal problems. Moreover, some key social sectors like rural or industrial entrepreneurs, without enthusiastically supporting the income tax, were disposed to tolerate it. In this article, I argue that we need a political interpretation of the failure of tax reform during 1920s. Molina's draft was blocked in the Senate by the majority of the representatives of the interior provinces. In fact, income tax was considered to be a threat to the less affluent provinces of Argentina because it implied a step toward tax centralization and unification. Yet the economic weakness of the interior did not imply political weakness, and the interior provinces were the main obstacle to fiscal reform in Argentina until the 1930s.

Political Conflict and Power Sharing in the Origins of Modern Colombia

Mazzuca, S., Robinson, J. A. — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 14:42:42 PDT

After a long period of chaos, political order in Colombia emerged in the mid-1900s. This transition was driven by a change in the institutional allocation of political power. After the Thousand Days' War, Colombia's two parties agreed to share power by means of a new set of electoral rules. The incomplete vote, the cornerstone of the new electoral rules, was a strategic concession by the Conservative government to the Liberal opposition. In exchange for permanent representation in the legislatures, Liberals abandoned military insurrection as a political strategy. Transition to proportional representation was completed in 1929 with the introduction of the quotient rule. The quotient rule was also a concession from the government. However, it was not driven by Liberalism's potential military power but by the institutional power that Liberalism had accumulated since the first concession.
