This reader brings together more than 200 texts and images in a broad introduction to Guatemala's history, culture, and politics.

The Blood of Guatemala: A History of Race and Nation
ISBN: 9780822324959 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the latter half of the twentieth century, the Guatemalan state slaughtered more than two hundred thousand of its citizens. In the wake of this violence, a vibrant pan-Mayan movement has emerged, one that is challenging Ladino (non-indigenous) notions of citizenship and national identity. In The Blood of Guatemala Greg Grandin locates the origins of this ethnic resurgence within the social processes of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century state formation rather than in the ruins of the national project of recent decades.
Focusing on Mayan elites in the community of Quetzaltenango,... Over the latter half of the twentieth century, the Guatemalan state slaughtered more than two hundred thousand of its citizens. In the wake of this vi...
