By looking at the mandates of three viceroys who, to varying degrees, participated in the events surrounding the Tumult, the book discusses royal authority from a transatlantic perspective that encompasses both sides of the Iberian Atlantic. Considering the similarities and tensions that coexisted in the Iberian Atlantic, Ballone offers a thorough reassessment of current historiography on the Tumult proving that, despite the conflicts and arguments underlying the disturbances, there was never any intention to do away with the king’s authority in New Spain.European expansion and indigenous response ;Volume 24.RiotsMexicoMexico CityHistory17th centuryChurch and stateMexicoHistory17th centuryMexicoHistorySpanish colony, 1540-1810MexicoPolitics and government1540-1810RiotsHistoryChurch and stateHistory972/.02Ballone Angela1494014MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796555003321The 1624 Tumult of Mexico in perspective (c. 1620-1650)3717323UNINA04427nam 2201105 a 450 991078671170332120230126210249.00-520-95537-410.1525/9780520955370(CKB)2670000000355204(EBL)1184541(OCoLC)842883490(SSID)ssj0000873182(PQKBManifestationID)12439253(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000873182(PQKBWorkID)10865596(PQKB)11665709(MiAaPQ)EBC1184541(DE-B1597)519682(DE-B1597)9780520955370(Au-PeEL)EBL1184541(CaPaEBR)ebr10698368(CaONFJC)MIL486977(EXLCZ)99267000000035520420150303d2013 uy 0engurnn#---|u||utxtccrTeardown[electronic resource] memoir of a vanishing city /Gordon YoungBerkeley, Calif.

Hoping to rediscover and help a place that once boasted one of the world's highest per capita income levels, but is now one of the country's most impoverished and dangerous cities, he returned to Flint with the intention of buying a house. What he found was a place of stark contrasts and dramatic stories, where an exotic dancer can afford a lavish mansion, speculators scoop up cheap houses by the dozen on eBay, and arson is often the quickest route to neighborhood beautification. Skillfully blending personal memoir, historical inquiry, and interviews with Flint residents, Young constructs a vibrant tale of a once-thriving city still fighting-despite overwhelming odds-to rise from the ashes. He befriends a rag-tag collection of urban homesteaders and die-hard locals who refuse to give up as they try to transform Flint into a smaller, greener town that offers lessons for cities all over the world. Hard-hitting, insightful, and often painfully funny, Teardown reminds us that cities are ultimately defined by people, not politics or economics.Plant shutdownsMichiganFlintUrban renewalMichiganFlintFlint (Mich.)Social conditionsFlint (Mich.)Economic conditionsabandoned houses.biography.biology.business.career.cheap houses.cities.city life.city living.crowded cities.cultural studies.dangerous cities.defiant homeowners.detroit.economics.engaging.flint.historical.history.housing.interviews.michigan authors.michigan.money.oral history.page turner.personal memoir.personal quest.preservation.realistic.rust belt.social history.social justice.social science.sociological science.sociology.urban america.urban homesteaders.urban planning.urban.urbanism.wealth.Plant shutdownsUrban renewal307.3/4160977437Young Gordon1966-1501464Young Gordon1966-1501464MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786711703321Teardown3728592UNINA
