Drawing on ethnohistorical, archaeological, and ethnographic data, Elizabeth Terese Newman creates a fascinating model of the interplay between the great events of the Revolution and the lives of everyday people. In 1910 the Mexican Revolution erupted out of a century of tension surrounding land ownership and control over labor. During the previous century, the elite ruling classes acquired ever-increasingly large tracts of land while peasants saw their subsistence and community independence vanish. Rural working conditions became so oppressive that many resorted to armed rebellion. After the war, new efforts were made to promote agrarian reform, and many of Mexico's rural poor were awarded the land they had farmed for generations. Weaving together fiction, memoir, and data from her fieldwork, Newman reconstructs life at the Hacienda San Miguel Acocotla, a site located near a remote village in the Valley of Atlixco, Puebla, Mexico. Exploring people's daily lives and how they affected the buildup to the Revolution and subsequent agrarian reforms, the author draws on nearly a decade of interdisciplinary study of the Hacienda Acocotla and its descendant community. Newman's archaeological research recovered information about the lives of indigenous people living and working there in the one hundred years leading up to the Mexican Revolution. Newman shows how women were central to starting the revolt, and she adds their voices to the master narrative. Biography of a Hacienda concludes with a thoughtful discussion of the contribution of the agrarian revolution to Mexico's history and whether it has succeeded or simply transformed rural Mexico into a new "global hacienda system."--Provided by publisher.HaciendasMexicoPuebla (State)HistoryArchaeology and historyMexicoHacienda San Miguel AcocotlaLand tenureMexicoPuebla (State)HistoryLand reformMexicoPuebla (State)HistoryMexicoHistoryRevolution, 1910-1920CausesMexicoHistoryRevolution, 1910-1920InfluenceElectronic books.HaciendasHistory.Archaeology and historyLand tenureHistory.Land reformHistory.972.08/16Newman Elizabeth Terese1976-999272MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464696603321Biography of a hacienda2292820UNINA03320oam 2200673I 450 991046542390332120200520144314.00-203-38361-31-299-27974-01-135-96486-610.4324/9780203383612 (CKB)2560000000099279(EBL)1143853(OCoLC)830161188(SSID)ssj0000833897(PQKBManifestationID)11474243(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000833897(PQKBWorkID)10980004(PQKB)10023638(MiAaPQ)EBC1143853(Au-PeEL)EBL1143853(CaPaEBR)ebr10672640(CaONFJC)MIL459224(OCoLC)838418643(EXLCZ)99256000000009927920180706d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe political worlds of women gender and politics in nineteenth century Britain /Sarah RichardsonNew York :Routledge,2013.1 online resource (269 p.)Routledge research in gender and history ;15Description based upon print version of record.1-138-95243-5 0-415-82566-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: the political worlds of women in nineteenth-century Britain -- Politics at home -- Useful soup for benevolent purposes: the politics of domestic economy -- Philanthropic economy: radicalism, women, and charity -- Women and the politics of the parish -- Female petitioning: the multiform warfare of political life -- From the ventilator to the ladies' cage: women and the Houses of Parliament -- Encounters with imperial and international affairs -- British women and the rosewater revolution -- Conclusion: spheres and spaces; borders and frontiers.Traditional analyses of nineteenth-century politics have assigned women a peripheral role. By adopting a broader interpretation of political participation, the author identifies how middle-class women were able to contribute to political affairs in the nineteenth century. Examining the contribution that women made to British political life in the period 1800-1870 stimulates debates about gender and politics, the nature of authority and the definition of political culture.This volume examines female engagement in both traditional and unconventional political arenas, including fRoutledge research in gender and history ;15.WomenPolitical activityGreat BritainHistory19th centuryFeminismGreat BritainHistory19th centuryWomenGreat BritainSocial conditions19th centuryGreat BritainPolitics and government19th centuryElectronic books.WomenPolitical activityHistoryFeminismHistoryWomenSocial conditions305.42094109/034Richardson Sarah1964 May 11-,940561MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465423903321The political worlds of women2121018UNINA
