Honor, Status, and Law in Modern Latin America

Beschreibung

"This book will change how we view the long nineteenth century in Latin America, as it allows the reader to weave into the same cloth the two strands that ran through, respectively, the liberal state and postcolonial society, namely, the drive to form citizens and the desire to maintain status hierarchies."--Teresita Martinez-Vergne, author of "Shaping the Discourse on Space: Charity and Its Wards in Nineteenth-Century San Juan, Puerto Rico"
