Residential Capitalism
Author: Javier Moreno Zacarés
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040022804
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Over the last decade, Spain has become an emblem of the contradictory relationship between capitalism and housing. During the house-price boom of the 2000s, Spain built homes on an unprecedented scale, with output levels that overshadowed those of every major European economy. Nevertheless, when the fortunes of real estate markets turned, a wave of repossessions ensued, and a massive number of households were thrown out into the street as a sizeable portion of the housing stock was lying vacant. In turn, the implosion of Spanish residential capitalism triggered an intense wave of unrest that has come to shape a decade of political turmoil. This book uses the Spanish case to bring to light, and theorise, the workings of residential capitalism. The author traces the evolution of residential provision from the nineteenth century to the present, situating the transformation of the housing market in a context of ongoing social change and conflict. The book shows how the present needs to be understood by looking at the historical process through which residential provision became subsumed under the logic of capitalist accumulation but also at a long genealogy of struggles around urbanisation and housing, the outcomes of which remain crystallised in Spain’s urban institutions. The author reveals how both residential capitalist development and urban social conflict have constituted each another, casting light on the historical relationship between housing crises, urban unrest, and the evolution of real estate markets. The book develops a historicist framework to understand residential capitalism, an important contribution for an age in which real estate markets have come to determine the rhythms of global capital. Addressing key issues and debates in the field, including the financialisation of housing, the politics of scale and urban entrepreneurialism, the political economy of the Eurozone, and the history of capitalist development, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of political economy, as well as those engaged in crossover fields such as housing studies, urban geography, or financial geography.

Made in Mexico
Author: Susan M. Gauss
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 0271074450
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
The experiment with neoliberal market-oriented economic policy in Latin America, popularly known as the Washington Consensus, has run its course. With left-wing and populist regimes now in power in many countries, there is much debate about what direction economic policy should be taking, and there are those who believe that state-led development might be worth trying again. Susan Gauss’s study of the process by which Mexico transformed from a largely agrarian society into an urban, industrialized one in the two decades following the end of the Revolution is especially timely and may have lessons to offer to policy makers today. The image of a strong, centralized corporatist state led by the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) from the 1940s conceals what was actually a prolonged, messy process of debate and negotiation among the postrevolutionary state, labor, and regionally based industrial elites to define the nationalist project. Made in Mexico focuses on the distinctive nature of what happened in the four regions studied in detail: Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey, and Puebla. It shows how industrialism enabled recalcitrant elites to maintain a regionally grounded preserve of local authority outside of formal ruling-party institutions, balancing the tensions among centralization, consolidation of growth, and Mexico’s deep legacies of regional authority.

Sacerdotes que dejaron huella en el siglo XX
Author: Alberto Royo Mejía
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1300430273
Category : Religion
Languages : es
Pages : 346
Book Description
Este libro es una clara muestra de que la historia, para ser verdaderamente humana, no puede consistir en un mero conjunto de datos económicos y políticos. En efecto, por sus páginas desfilan cuarenta y seis sacerdotes que, a menudo con medios muy pobres, cambiaron el mundo a su alrededor como fundadores, teólogos, predicadores, simples curas de parroquia, mártires, misioneros, profesores o santos. Los sacerdotes seleccionados se han dividido en siete grupos: maestros del espíritu, misioneros de pueblos lejanos, perseguidos a causa de la justicia, grandes teólogos, sacerdotes que se anticiparon a su tiempo, apóstoles de la caridad y los dedicados a diversos apostolados. No todos los sacerdotes descritos son santos (aunque muchos estén en camino de ser reconocidos como tales), pero todos dejaron sin duda una profunda huella en el siglo XX.
