The Relationship

Authority in one of its concepts means the ability to influence and subjugation, and it is based on a set of foundations and principles that seek to regulate the relationship between the party is the ruling class, and the other is the category governed. In totalitarian or dictatorial regimes, this ability becomes an indispensable necessity, transforming from the foundations for regulating the relationship to its ultimate goal of ensuring the control of state resources, the continuity of government, and all that results from a social nature which is then a manifestation of the nature of this power.

The building known as the Casa de la Cacica, seat of the Mixtec leaders of San Juan Teposcolula, Oaxaca, around the middle of the 16th century, exhibits the complexity of architectural and ideological interplay during the first period of colonization. The use of European techniques of construction did not prevent the native leaders of Teposcolula from conceiving of space and its political meaning in pre-conquest terms. Indeed, the new technology and architecture were probably adopted in order to legitimize and reaffirm the power of the ruling class in Teposcolula within the new context of Spanish domination.

Chapter 7 describes the origins of the Chicago School and its successful projection into the hearts and minds of the global ruling class. Working chronologically, there is a description of how this program took root in Chicago and how some of its central figures, Friedman and Harberger, undertook a hemispheric campaign to capture both academic and government institutions. A history of the deregulation movement in the US and case studies of Mexico, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil highlight the breadth and depth of the campaign. The chapter closes in Europe where the neoliberal insurgency faced more-developed social states. Its success varied in Britain, France, and Germany.

The Impact

This article examines the dissemination of agricultural education in primary schools in the Romagna, an important rural area in post-unification Italy. The topic is explored within a wider perspective, analysing the impact of institutional changes – at both the national and local levels – on the transmission of agricultural knowledge in primary education during the final quarter of the nineteenth century. Two particular elements of the process are examined: students, as the intended beneficiaries of the educational process; and teachers, who as well as having a key role in reducing the extent of illiteracy were sometimes also involved in disseminating agricultural knowledge. The transfer of that knowledge appears to have been a very challenging task, not least because of the scant interest that Italy's ruling class showed towards this issue. However, increasing importance seems to have been given to agricultural education in primary schools during the economic crisis of the 1880s, when the expansion of this provision was thought to be among the factors that might help to prepare the ground for the hoped-for ‘agricultural revolution’.

AbstractThis article provides a comparative analysis of four large towns in the Southern Low Countries between c. 1350 and c. 1550. Combining the data on Ghent, Bruges and Antwerp – each of which is discussed in greater detail in the articles in this special section – with recent research on Bruges, the authors argue against the historiographical trend in which the political history of late medieval towns is supposedly dominated by a trend towards oligarchy. Rather than a closure of the ruling class, the four towns show a high turnover in the social composition of the political elite, and a consistent trend towards aristocracy, in which an increasingly large number of aldermen enjoyed noble status. The intensity of these trends differed from town to town, and was tied to different institutional configurations as well as different economic and political developments in each of the four towns.
