During the independence era in Mexico, individuals and factions of all stripes embraced the printing press as a key weapon in the broad struggle for political power. Taking readers into the printing shops, government offices, courtrooms, and streets of Mexico City, historian Corinna Zeltsman reconstructs the practical negotiations and discursive contests that surrounded print over a century of political transformation, from the late colonial era to the Mexican Revolution. Centering the diverse communities that worked behind the scenes at urban presses, and examining their social practices and aspirations, Zeltsman explores how printer interactions with state and religious authorities shaped broader debates about press freedom and authorship. Beautifully crafted and ambitious in scope, Ink under the Fingernails sheds new light on Mexico's histories of state formation and political culture, identifying printing shops as unexplored spaces of democratic practice, where the boundaries between manual and intellectual labor blurred.

"During the Cold War, U.S. intervention in Latin American politics, economics, and society grew in scope and complexity, with diplomatic legacies evident in today's hemispheric policies. Development became a key form of intervention as government officials and experts from the United States and Latin America believed that development could foster hemispheric solidarity and security. In parts of Latin America, its implementation was especially intricate because recipients of these programs were diverse Indigenous peoples with their own politics, economics, and cultures. Contrary to project planners' expectations, Indigenous beneficiaries were not passive recipients but actively engaged with development interventions and, in the process, redefined racialized ideas about Indigeneity. Sarah Foss illustrates how this process transpired in Cold War Guatemala, spanning democratic revolution, military coups, and genocidal civil war"--

"For many, the most authoritative history of US economic policy is told by Milton Friedman and Anna Schwartz, in their 1963 PUP book, A Monetary History of the United States, 1867-1960, as well as Alan Meltzer's multi-volume history of the Federal Reserve, published in 2003 and 2010. Both works were written by economists marshalling historical data to make an argument about what type of economic policy works best. Friedman and Schwartz's book led to the rise of monetarism, the idea that virtually the only thing governments can or should do when it comes to the economy is determine how much money to put in it. If there aren't enough jobs, for example, just put more money in the economy through bank lending, and businesses will hire more. There's no need for the government, the theory holds, to stimulate spending from the bottom up or encourage hiring or improve wages through any other means. These days, the concept of monetarism, though still a predominant policy framework, is seen by many as a very particular and narrow viewpoint, but there's no authoritative book on the level of Friedman and Schwartz that sets the record straight. In A Monetary and Fiscal History of the United States, 1961-2021, economist Alan Blinder lays out the history of US economic policy since Friedman and Schwartz, through the wider lens of the interaction between monetary and fiscal policy. He shows, decade by decade, that a powerful influence that the government has on the economy is not just through how much money it puts in it (monetary policy) but through decisions on how money is spent (fiscal policy). In this book Alan Blinder shifts the narrative dominance from monetarism and interest rates to a shared influence of monetary and fiscal policy, and he shows how the government has long been using various policies to stimulate spending, ranging from tax breaks and credits to direct checks to citizens. He does this from an insider's perspective, offering an authoritative history of US economic policy from Kennedy to COVID"--
