    Espacio y territorio : Instrumentos metodologicos de investigacion social (2021)
    IRD Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: El territorio tiene cada día mayor importancia, tanto en su componente físico como en su dimensión sociocultural. La gestión de los recursos naturales, el problema del acceso a la tierra, la gobernabilidad, las cadenas productivas, las políticas de infraestructura, la cosmovisión campesina, la construcción de identidades y otros son temas relacionados con el espacio y el territorio. El espacio y el territorio han sido investigados desde diversas disciplinas, como la geografía, la economía y la sociología. Sin embargo, todavfa carecemos de propuestas metodológicas intégrales. Por eso, revisando los caminos transitados por la geografía moderna y centrando su preocupación en los conceptos de espacio y territorio, este libro propone una lectura multidimensional y multidisciplinaria del tema, ofreciendo un panorama de los diferentes enfoques, métodos e instrumentas para estudios empiricos, como los métodos estadísticos, cartográficos y, como dice Erwin Galoppo, "ese producto génial de la geografía francesa contemporanea: los coremas".

    Chapter 4 Quarantine in Ceuta and Malta in the travel writings of the late-eighteenth-century Moroccan ambassador Ibn Uthmân Al-Meknassî (2021)
    Manchester University Press | Mediterranean quarantines, 1750–1914: Space, identity and power
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This chapter examines the writings of the renowned late-eighteenth-century Moroccan ambassador Ibn Uthmân Al-Meknassî, the first known traveller from his country to leave an account of European quarantine as experienced during his two diplomatic missions in Spain’s Ceuta (1779) and Malta’s Valletta (1782). It shows that quarantine, on the one hand, acted as a marker of otherness by which Ibn Othman was identified as a Muslim, though this was not a uniform process, owing to the fact that significant differences existed in the degree of alterity experienced in Spain and Malta, and indeed other parts of the Mediterranean. The subjective opinion on quarantine, on the other hand, was also one of the means through which Ibn Uthmân situated himself within Makhzen (Moroccan government) elites at a time when a division between those who declared themselves in favour of European-style modernisation and those who advocated a rejection of European novelties was already visible.

    Los retos de la diferencia : Los actores de la multiculturalidad entre México y Colombia (2021)
    IRD Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-20
    Description: Desde hace dos o tres décadas las identidades colectivas han vuelto a surgir, como un eje privilegiado de movilización entre distintos tipos de colectivos y grupos sociales indígenas, afrodescendientes, grupos religiosos, de género etcétera. ¿Por qué y cómo se activa dicho registro identitario, en la ciudad y en el campo, en muchos países de América Latina y del mundo? Entre 2002 y 2006, un equipo internacional de investigadoras e investigadores de México, Colombia y Francia se dio a la tarea de confrontar experiencias e interpretaciones teóricas, con el fin de construir una propuesta basada en la comparación. Fruto del proyecto de investigación Idymov, Identidades y movilidades: las sociedades regionales en los nuevos contextos políticos y migratorios. Una comparación entre México y Colombia, este libro es el resultado de una reflexión construida en el diálogo y a veces en la confrontación entre varios enfoques y desde varias loci de enunciación y diversos posicionamientos: empíricos, teóricos, académicos, epistemológicos y éticos.

    Chapter 1 Quarantine and territory in Spain during the second half of the nineteenth century (2021)
    Manchester University Press | Mediterranean quarantines, 1750–1914: Space, identity and power
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This chapter provides a thorough investigation of the modes by which the sanitary administration coevolved coherently with and inseparably from the Spanish state’s modern transport-communication and economic-industrial infrastructures throughout the nineteenth century. It also investigates examines how quarantine institutions functioned as sanitary gateways or entry checkpoints at borders, physically marking and consolidating while protecting the national territorial space. The paper traces the ideas underpinning the configuration and development of the sanitary network on Spanish national territory, which occurred unevenly – with the most evolved parts depending on certain strategic ports and on links with the railway transport infrastructure that was still under construction. It also suggests that the gradual relaxation of quarantine in liberal Spain was periodically called into question by economic and political policies that defined the relation between the coastal and inland regions of the country.

    Cold, hard steel (2024)
    Manchester University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Brilliant, volatile, and invariably male, the surgeon stereotype is a widespread and instantly recognisable part of Western culture. Setting out to anatomise this stereotype, Cold, Hard Steel offers an exciting new history of modern and contemporary British surgery. The book draws on archival materials and original interviews with surgeons, analysing them alongside a range of fictional depictions, from the Doctor in the House novels to Mills & Boon romances and the pioneering soap opera Emergency Ward 10. Presenting a unique social, cultural, and emotional history, it sheds light on the development and maintenance of the surgical stereotype and explains why it has proved so enduring. At the same time, the book explores the more candid and compassionate image of the surgeon that has begun to emerge in recent years, revealing how a series of high-profile memoirs both challenge the surgical stereotype and simultaneously confirm it.

    Chapter 3 Mending “Moors” in Mogador (2021)
    Manchester University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This chapter deals with a rather unknown quarantine institution: the lazaretto of Mogador Island in Morocco. Specifically, the work explores the site’s centrality to the Spanish imperialist project of “regeneration” over of its southern neighbour. In contrast with the “civilisation” schemes deployed by the leading European imperial powers at the end of the nineteenth century, regeneration did not seek to construct a colonial Morocco but a so-called African Spain in more balanced terms with peninsular Spain. This project was to be achieved through the support and direction of ongoing Moroccan initiatives of modernisation, as well as through the training of an elite of “Moors” who were to collaborate with Spanish experts sent to the country, largely based in Tangier. Within this general context, the Mogador Island lazaretto became a key site of regeneration projects. From a sanitary and political point of view, it was meant to define a Spanish-Moroccan space by marking its new borders and also to protect “Moorish” pilgrims against both the ideological and health-related risks associated with the Mecca pilgrimage.

    Globalización y localidad : Espacios, actores, movilidades e identidades (2021)
    IRD Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-01
    Description: Los trabajos que este libro reúne surgen de investigaciones de campo que exploran, de manera comparativa y pluridisciplinaria, cuatro aspectos fundamentales de los llamados "espacios infranacionales" dentro de la globalización: las reorganizaciones productivas de las ciudades y regiones; las transformaciones de las instituciones y los actores involucrados en la toma de decisiones a nivel local; las recomposiciones territoriales y las movilidades espaciales que las acompañan; y los cambios en las condiciones de vida y las identidades de los residentes. El objetivo es destacar la interdependencia de estos cuatro temas no sólo desde una perspectiva académica y teórica, sino también desde el punto de vista de las estrategias, de las "lógicas prácticas" de actores locales en su adaptación a una de las transformaciones más profundas de la historia del capitalismo. La obra está organizada en cuatro secciones: las dos primeras agrupan artículos que abordan, por una parte, las dinámicas de los cambios en las aglomeraciones productivas urbanas y regionales v, por otra, la afirmación de nuevos actores que desempeñan un papel relevante en la transformación de los tejidos productivos o en las políticas públicas encaminadas a apoyarlos; la tercera sección se ocupa de aquellas adaptaciones que, mediante las movilidades de los trabajadores locales, han influido sobre las diferencias de oportunidades económicas entre las distintas escalas espaciales; finalmente, en la cuarta sección se estudian los cambios en los modos y las condiciones de vida de los residentes de las ciudades y regiones que se acompañan, frecuentemente, de transformaciones y luchas de representaciones de las identidades.

    Civilising rural Ireland (2021)
    Manchester University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Civilising Rural Ireland examines how modern Ireland emerged out of the social and economic transformation prompted by the rural co-operative movement. The movement emerged in response to systemic economic problems that arose throughout the nineteenth century and coincided with a wide-ranging project of cultural nationalism. Within a short space of time the co-operative movement established a swathe of creameries, agricultural societies and credit societies, leading to a radical reorganisation of rural Ireland and helping to create a distinctive Irish political economy. The work of overlooked co-operative experts is critically examined for the first time and reinserted into the process of state development. The interventions of these organisers, intellectuals and farmers built up key institutions that shaped everyday life across rural communities. The movement weathered war and revolution, to become an indispensable part of an Irish state infrastructure after independence in 1922. The strained relationship and economic rivalry that developed between Irish and British co-operators is also explored in order to illuminate the changing relationship between Ireland and the United Kingdom from an economic perspective. Civilising Rural Ireland will appeal to a wide audience interested in modern Irish history and readers are introduced to an eclectic range of personalities who shared an interest in co-operation and whose actions possessed important consequences for the way Ireland developed. The creative use of local and national sources, many of which are examined for the first time, mean the book offers a new perspective on an important period in the making of modern Ireland.

    Pacificando o branco : Cosmologias do contato no norte-Amazonico (2021)
    IRD Éditions
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-20
    Description: Índios do Norte da Amazônia estão nos descrevendo, nos amansando, tentando nos entender e se entender conosco. Alguns há vários séculos, outros há poucos anos. Como podemos compreender o modo pelo qual somos compreendidos? Durante a última década, a antropologia preocupou-se muito com o problema inverso: como podemos compreender o modo pelo qual compreendemos os outros? E ficou assim entretida demais com seu próprio umbigo. Este livro magistral, esperado há vários anos, é um alívio. Mostra como é fecundo analisar o trabalho simbólico e político de sociedades indígenas, trabalho que resulta em suas “cosmologias do contato” e na forma específica pela qual se apropriam da história e do mundo contemporâneo.

    Chapter 4 'She sleeps well and eats an egg’: convalescent care in early modern England (2021)
    Manchester University Press | Conserving health in early modern culture: Bodies and environments in Italy and England
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: "Very little is known about early modern approaches to convalescence and the author investigates the measures were taken by physicians and laypeople to restore health after illness. Drawing on medical texts, regimens, letters, and diaries, this chapter shows that the treatment of the convalescent differed both from the care of the sick and the healthy. It shows the vital place of the non-naturals in early modern medicine, and the role played by ‘Nature’, understood as the body’s principal agent and governor in physiological processes. The author finds that the 'six non-natural things' were on the one hand used as a way of gauging the extent of recovery, and on the other, were manipulated in a therapeutic role to ensure that both strength and flesh were restored. Thus, any remaining humours which might cause a relapse must be evacuated: good sleep, improved appetite and an ability to exercise were all signs of improvement but each, managed appropriately, also helped to restore strength, whilst negative emotions could endanger recovery and in its place cheerfulness –which was a restorative-must be encouraged."
