The history of the 20th century in the Southeast of Mexico is bookended by two revolutions: the Mexican Revolution as it played out in the region, along with its antecedents and aftermath, and a very different but related revolutionary movement that emerged in the state of Chiapas in the mid-1990s. The former has been little studied at the multistate regional level by historians but is critical for understanding the history of the states of the Southeast in the decades that followed. The latter has been intensively studied by scholars in numerous disciplines, but its long-term historical implications remain to be seen. Equally important but scarcely studied and relatively little known is the political history of the Southeast in between these periods of conflict and revolution. The Southeast is a region that is commonly regarded as distinct, and even marginal, within national histories of Mexico. In the 1980s, President Miguel de la Madrid suggested that the Mexican Revolution had never reached Chiapas. Yet decades earlier, President Lázaro Cárdenas (1934–1940) famously praised neighboring Tabasco as Mexico’s “laboratory of revolution.” Meanwhile, historian Ben Fallaw contends that Yucatán was one of the most important of Mexico’s political laboratories during the 1930s. Taken together, these seemingly conflicting assertions underscore that many of the things that made the Southeast unique within Mexico also made the region important and influential to the course of modern Mexican history. They also raise the question of the Southeast’s experience of the Revolution and the long-term legacies of the revolutionary political projects that unfolded there.

Uno de los conflictos sociales, políticos e históricos de más larga duración y persistentes en la historia política de las sociedades de Nuestra América, aun no resuelto, lo constituye el dilema entre las tendencias políticas democráticas y las tendencias políticas autoritarias. Las cuales se han desarrollado y se manifestado de diferentes formas y en distintos momentos al interior de estas sociedades. La instalación de las democracias transitivas neoliberales en la mayoría de los países durante la década de los años ochenta del siglo XX, hizo pensar que el autoritarismo había dejado de ser una amenaza para la democracia. Sin embargo, los diversos procesos políticos que hoy se observan y se desarrollan en el continente se encuentran atravesados por este viejo, pero siempre actual conflicto. De allí el renovado interés de las ciencias sociales por analizarlo. Hoy en día ya nadie discute que la conflictividad política, social y cultural entre las tendencias democráticas y autoritarias está de regreso. La presente ponencia tiene como objetivo central analizar dicho conflicto en la actualidad. ---DEMOCRACIA vs autoritarismo na política latino-americana: Um velho dilema político atualUm dos conflitos sociais, políticos e históricos mais longo e persistente na história política das sociedades da “Nuestra América”, ainda não resolvido, é o dilema entre as tendências políticas democráticas e as autoritárias. As quais se desenvolveram e manifestaram nestas sociedades de diferentes formas e em distintos momentos. A instalação de democracias transitivas neoliberais na maioria dos países durante a década dos oitenta do século XX, transpareceu que o autoritarismo deixava de ser uma ameaça para a democracia. Entretanto, os diversos processos políticos que se observam e desenvolvem hoje no continente se encontram atravessados por este velho, mas sempre atual, conflito. Hoje em dia pouco se discute sobre o regresso dos conflitos políticos,sociais e culturais entre as tendências democráticas e autoritárias. O objetivo do texto é analisar o conflito atualmente.Palavras-chave: autoritarismo, democracia e conflito político ---Democracy vs authoritarianism in Latin American politics: An old present political dilemmaOne of the longest and most persistent social, political and historical conflicts in the political history of "Nuestra America" societies, is the still unsolved dilemma between democratic and authoritarian political tendencies, and they were developed and expressed in these societies in different ways and at different times. The installation of transitive neoliberal democracies in most countries during the eighties showed that authoritarianism was no longer a threat to democracy. However, the various political processes that are being observed and develop today in the continent are crossed by this old but ever present conflict. Nowadays, little is discussed about the return of political, social and cultural conflicts between democratic and authoritarian tendencies. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the conflict today.Keywords: authoritarianism, democracy and political conflict

This chapter introduces the main themes of the book—Kavikarṇapūra, theology, Sanskrit poetry, and Sanskrit poetics—and provides an overview of each chapter. It briefly highlights the importance of the practice of poetry for the Caitanya Vaiṣṇava tradition, places Kavikarṇapūra in the (political) history of sixteenth‐century Bengal and Orissa as well as sketches his place in the early developments of the Caitanya Vaiṣṇava tradition (a topic more fully explored in Chapter 1). The chapter also reflects more generally on the nature of both his poetry and poetics, and highlights the way Kavikarṇapūra has so far been studied in modern scholarship.
