Soft cover. Zustand: Good. An assiduous student's former Textbook with marginalia, highlighting and underlining throughout. Clean and tight though. "Demonstrating that globalization is a centuries-old phenomenon, From Silver to Cocaine examines the commodity chains that have connected producers in Latin America with consumers around the world for five hundred years. In clear, accessible essays, historians from Latin America, England, and the United States trace the paths of many of Latin America's most important exports: coffee, bananas, rubber, sugar, tobacco, silver, henequen (fiber), fertilizers, cacao, cocaine, indigo, and cochineal (insects used to make dye). Each contributor follows a specific commodity from its inception, through its development and transport, to its final destination in the hands of consumers. The essays are arranged in chronological order, according to when the production of a particular commodity became significant to Latin America's economy. Some?such as silver, sugar, and tobacco?were actively produced and traded in the sixteenth century; others?such as bananas and rubber?only at the end of the nineteenth century; and cocaine only in the twentieth. By focusing on changing patterns of production and consumption over time, the contributors reconstruct complex webs of relationships and economic processes, highlighting Latin America's central and interactive place in the world economy. They show how changes in coffee consumption habits, clothing fashions, drug usage, or tire technologies in Europe, Asia, and the Americas reverberate through Latin American commodity chains in profound ways. The social and economic outcomes of the continent's export experience have been mixed. By analyzing the dynamics of a wide range of commodities over a five-hundred-year period, From Silver to Cocaine highlights this diversity at the same time that it provides a basis for comparison and points to new ways of doing global history.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - During the eighteenth century, Jonathan Swift was internationally acclaimed for 'Gulliver's Travels' and other brilliant satires in verse and prose. In his native Ireland, however, he was more fervently admired as a patriot. Advocating economic self-sufficiency for Ireland and resistance to the high-handedness of the British government, Swift represented a stirring challenge to British rule. Although his reputation as an Irish patriot declined after his death, the twentieth century came to recognise him as a founding father of Irish nationalism. This book traces Swift's fluctuating reception in Ireland through the centuries, finding in Swift's ambivalence about his homeland - which he could not love even as he defended its cause - echoes and anticipations of the ambiguities that have marked the development of Irish identity at large. Mahony looks at Swift's posthumous reputation in literary culture and examines his unusual place in Irish political rhetoric. He shows that Swift's patriotic reputation suffered in the later eighteenth century through its seeming irrelevance to shifting political circumstances.In the early nineteenth century Irish Protestants made Swift a symbol of their own patriotism within the British union, but he was ignored, or dismissed as a bigot, by most Catholic writers. In the 1840s the Young Ireland movement sought to alter the perception by emphasizing Swift's anti-British rhetoric while establishing his Protestant pedigree. And although charges of hypocrisy and English cultural orientation continued as late as the 1930s, the construction of Swift as a patriot survives, two hundred and fifty years after his death.'. fascinating reading for anyone interested either in Swift or in the course of Irish history, as illuminated by the fluctuations in Swift's reputation over the centuries.' Conor Cruise O'BrienRobert Mahony is Director of the Center for Irish Studies and Associate Professor of English at the Catholic University of America, Washington D.C.
