To what extent was Mexico’s independence from Spain a “full-scale assault on dependency”? This essay will investigate how the Mexican independence from Spain was only slightly a “full-scale assault on dependency”, due to several political and social conflicts. Firstly, Mexico remained a monarchy (but not under the control of Spain) after the insurgency. Secondly, there was still an official state religion in Mexico. Another reason is because social conflicts reduced the desire for independence .On the other hand, it assaulted dependency because there were some changes within the social hierarchy, and because Mexico was free from Spain.

From this time to around 1813, the Chileans who supported this idea of independence from Spain began to peacefully change their government. However, there was a controversy amongst some Chileans on how far the

In the book “Mexico Profundo Reclaiming A Civilization” by Bonfil Bonilla shows the reality of a modern Mexico without neglecting the problems of the current government of Mexico. The Mexican society is composed by different diversities of Indigenism and of high social groups that forms two different types of Mexico such as the Mexico Profundo and the Imaginary Mexico which are different worlds that are interpreted as Mesoamerican and European civilizations. Before and after the Mexican Independence, the process from the pre-Columbian time to a modern world in Mexico, had been a complex movement, since there were battles, slavery, cultures, customs, democracy and struggles containing different experiences that lead to what makes Mexico contemporary, hence; through the historical erasure, and the people who resist colonization since the beginning of colonialism, it created a Mexico Profundo

For my third and final cultural event this semester, I attended the screening for the Mexican play, El Censo, which was shown during the Liberal Arts Symposium. The play is about a lower income family of tailors in the 1940’s who find themselves horrified and confused when confronted with having to respond to the Census, which largely relates to taxes which they have not paid and cannot afford to pay in the poor economic conditions. In many ways the issues which the play deals with, including modernization and people’s reactions as well as economic difficulty, are pertinent not only to every country in one way or another, but to every time period in one way or another. I will thus be comparing the situations and fears expressed in the play

This will be as much a tale about the Venezuelan people as it is about a returning immigrant who knows his homeland largely from memories and media. Though my experiences have shaped my outlook, my intention is to enter the country as a neutral and impartial writer, cognizant of daily life, yet oblivious to the fiery political discourse which consumes too many discussions.

Things appear different after five hundred years, yet it does not take much examination to realize that everything is the same. We focus on the minute changes, but these major themes of power, history, and the struggle for the control of knowledge are eternal and transcend the everyday. De las Casas wrote to a king to try to prevent a tragedy that he could not. Today the Latin America people face similar fates to their ancestors five hundred years prior. While the outcome is not as bloody, the loss is just as grave. Western knowledge seeks to destroy the last remaining semblances of the vast groupings that make up the term “Latin American culture.” It is not an active action in appearance, but the passive grouping into the West’s categories of race and culture has subtle motives of destruction. People are no longer ruled by kings, they guide themselves under the burdensome weight of Western knowledge and ideas. The existence of options, choices beyond growth and development, establish awareness that there is a way out of this evil. Latin American people were not born in the West, but are continually defined and judged by the system. Under such forces, it appears that the only two choices are to assimilate or bear the burden of being considered inferior. Decolonial thinking provides new pathways that lead to a new age for Latin America, providing the people recognize these pathways and are willing to take the steps to follow

On Monday, the students will learn about the geographical features of Oaxaca. In this lesson, the students will construct a map of Mexico showing its different geographic features. In the beginning, they will listen to a read-aloud on a PowerPoint presentation to introduce the location and the economic. On Tuesday, the students will conduct a short research about the culture in Oaxaca. The students will research the different dances in Oaxaca and then they will use the research information to create a feature article to teach other people, friends, and families about the different dance in the world. This relates to economic because people have to have the money to buy the clothes, which they will learn in Thursday’s lesson about meeting their needs and wants. On Wednesday, the students will learn the history of art, as well as an artist’s history of art. This also relates to economy, as well as Thursday and Friday’s lesson, because the artist also has to have money to meet their need, including using the good and services in the community.

In “Machuca”, we realize the extremities of differences between the different classes in the Chilean society, rooted mainly due to the lack of satisfaction of the two classes in the Socialist Unidad Popular Government. “The key to this interpretation is found in another important scene that takes place midway through the movie. There is a meeting at the school so that the parents of the students may have an opportunity to discuss the experiment of mixing children of different social classes. The discussion is mainly between liberals and conservatives – all of them middle or upper middle class – those who are in favour and those who are against the ‘experiment’. The parents of the poor students are standing at the back of the room (a chapel) and listen without taking part in the discussion, until the moment when Pedro’s mother dares to speak out. For a moment we can hear the subaltern’s voice, whose story is the history of primitive accumulation and of the worker’s continuous separation from the means of production, the history of pure and naked exploitation” (Martín-Cabrera & Voionmaa, 2007). She speaks about how the condition of the poorer sections of the

In the socialism and the Arts section, Meade describes how Mexico’s artists sought to express themselves through revolutionary art, murals, describing the struggles of different classes caused by ruling class. In the second reading, Meade argues how Mexico was till behind in terms or women’s rights such as the right to vote; this section is also about president Cardenas was able to bring changes and reforms to help Mexico modernize. In the last reading, the author describes the murals and the impact they had on Mexico; murals started out as something the artists actually wanted to do, to a tool used for propaganda by the state to fulfill their own interests.

From the beginning of time, history has never been proven wrong that governmental and politician involvement has affected many communities in a negative demeanor. A prime example of history is The Mexican Revolution during the 1910’s which sought the eradication of injustice and exploitation of disenfranchised communities. For that reason, we see the creation of the most single popular Mexican Corrido a narrative song and poetry form, a ballad. The prominent components of the corrido include an introduction (usually indicates a date/ place), conflict (message of the song) and farewell. In addition, through magnification we can see the majority of these ballads emphasized the oppression of peasants and socially relevant ideologies. Surely, corridos

They should empower individuals in the learning of what is particularly Latin American: "Urban communities battled for power. It likewise let us know the unsuitable repercussions of nationhood crosswise over Latin America. How they ought to make a Latin American culture for and by Latin American. Marti unequivocally trusts that the American individuals ought to be taught in the political expressions to make a solid establishment of information that would better prepare them to tackle political issues. Jose had a dream of peace and solidarity. The "common man" that Marti is so profoundly worried about is something that is important in the administration of our country. On the off chance that our political pioneers don't have a strong foundational
