Clerical Ideology in a Revolutionary Age clearly delineates the role of the Catholic Church in the making of Mexico as a nation. It provides a nuanced sense of clerical thought during the turbulent years leading to and following Mexico's national independence. Connaughton delves deeply into various primary sources from Guadalajara between 1788 and 1853, including printed sermons of high clergymen, contemporaneous newspapers, pamphletry, and pastoral letters. Analyzing this literature in the broader context of the Enlightenment, Connaughton looks at the Enlightenment's potentially corrosive ideas, the rise of liberalism, the complex relationship between Church and State, and the spread of secular mentality. With a balanced approach to clerical discourse, this study of the substance, contradictions, and evolution of Church thinking and political posturing in the face of Bourbon Reforms and the rise of liberalism should be required reading for any student or scholar of Mexican history.

Analyzes the extent to which foreign investment in Mexico's information technology sector brought economic, social, and environmental benefits to Guadalajara.Foreign investment has been widely perceived as a panacea for developing countries--as a way to reduce poverty and kick-start sustainable modern industries. The Enclave Economy calls this prescription into question, showing that Mexico's post-NAFTA experience of foreign direct investment in its information technology sector, particularly in the Guadalajara region, did not result in the expected benefits. Charting the rise and fall of Mexico's "Silicon Valley," the authors explore issues that resonate through much of Latin America and the developing world: the social, economic, and environmental effects of market-driven globalization. In the 1990s, Mexico was a poster child for globalization, throwing open its borders to trade and foreign investment, embracing NAFTA, and ending the government's role in strengthening domestic industry. But The Enclave Economy shows that although Mexico was initially successful in attracting multinational corporations, foreign investments waned in the absence of active government support and as China became increasingly competitive. Moreover, the authors find that foreign investment created an "enclave economy" the benefits of which were confined to an international sector not connected to the wider Mexican economy. In fact, foreign investment put many local IT firms out of business and transferred only limited amounts of environmentally sound technology. The authors suggest policies and strategies that will enable Mexico and other developing countries to foster foreign investment for sustainable development in the future.

Terre d’accueil de nombreux immigrés européens au Mexique et berceau d’un folklore local jaloux de sa richesse, Guadalajara voit se méler durant le Porfiriat (1877-1910) cultures européennes et mexicaine, voyageurs et tapatíos, revendication d’une culture régionale originale et regard sur l’Europe. À l’image du reste du pays, la capitale du Jalisco est ainsi confrontée à une européanisation des modes de vie, de consommation ou de divertissement qu’un regard superficiel pourrait résumer par la classique europhilie des élites porfiriennes. Or, une analyse détaillée du discours des élites jalisciences dans le journal satirique Juan Panadero montre que ce rapport à l’Europe est plus complexe qu’il n’y paraît. Tantôt critique, tantôt admiratif, et bien souvent ironique, cette publication se fait porte-parole d’une société pour qui le rapport à l’Europe, plus que synonyme de modernité, constitue le principal argument d’un rapport de force avec le pouvoir central et México. Le Juan Panadero renvoie alors l’image vivante d’une société qui se cherche, se contredit et se raconte, donnant à voir l’une des grandes contradictions du Mexique porfirien qui se heurte à de fortes résistances régionales dans le processus de mise en place du fédéralisme.

Masones y cristeros en Jalisco estudia cómo la masonería apoyó al gobierno mexicano en su lucha contra la Iglesia católica, tal como lo explicó el presidente Emilio Portes Gil en una célebre reunión con algunos de los más conspicuos masones para justificar los arreglos que dieron fin a ese conflicto, cuando destacó que en los gobiernos mexicanos a partir de la Reforma se ncontraba la masonería. Dada la importancia del tema invita a una investigación mayor, sobre todo en los archivos masónicos jaliscienses, fuente de difícil acceso. Esta Jornada es un adelanto de Cristeros y agraristas en Jalisco, obra en tres volúmenes, los dos primeros en prensa y el tercero en proceso de elaboración.
