However, the ambiguity of his social status during life and in his portraits has allowed scholars to project and reaffirm racial thinking rather than challenge its assumptions. Departing from this perspective, this essay examines his representation in text and image as a means of excavating the changing racial ideologies of nineteenth-century Mexico and the visual technologies that supported them. During Morelos’s lifetime, caste (lineage) remained the most significant signifier of status; however, emerging ideas regarding physiognomy, empiricism, and the bodily manifestation of racial character enabled competing assertions about Morelos’s race by midcentury. In the later nineteenth century, ethnohistorical notions of race began to emerge, allowing race to serve as an allegory of Mexico’s body politic. In this final phase, the ideology of Brownness emerged as a foil to mestizaje: a national body politic that created space for mixtures inclusive of Afro-Mexicans.Abstract:El héroe de la Independencia José María Morelos y Pavón ha sido caracterizado como personaje criollo, mestizo, indígena, mulato y moreno, y los historiadores han analizado los retratos de Morelos para respaldar posturas propias sobre la identidad racial de Morelos. Sin embargo, la ambigüedad de la posición social de Morelos durante su vida y en los retratos ha permitido a los historiadores proyectar y reafirmar la ideología racial, en lugar de cuestionar sus suposiciones. Divergiendo de esta perspectiva, en este ensayo examino su representación en texto e imagen como un medio para excavar las ideologías raciales cambiantes del México del siglo XIX y las tecnologías visuales que las sustentaron. Durante la vida de Morelos, la casta (o linaje) fue el indicador de estatus más importante; sin embargo, ideas emergentes con respecto a la fisonomía, el empirismo y la manifestación corporal del carácter racial permitieron afirmaciones contrapuestas sobre la raza de Morelos a mediados de siglo. En la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, comenzaron a surgir nociones etnohistóricas de raza, lo que permitió que la raza sirviera como una alegoría del cuerpo político de México. En esta fase final, la ideología de la “morenidad” surgió como alternativa al mestizaje: un cuerpo político nacional que creó espacio para las mezclas que incluían a los afromexicanos.","PeriodicalId":44006,"journal":{"name":"MEXICAN STUDIES-ESTUDIOS MEXICANOS","volume":"39 1","pages":"302 - 342"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42651324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article reviews the literature on New Left scholarship in comparative perspective and proposes several interpretations for why Southern Cone research has achieved more integration of cultural and political history than Mexican scholarship has. The article concludes with a discussion of recent research that points in the direction of a potential convergence both within Mexican historiography and between Mexican and Southern Cone historians investigating the Long 1960s.Abstract:Más de una década después de la propuesta de “ampliar nuestra comprensión conceptual” para incorporar prácticas culturales y enfoques transnacionales en las interpretaciones de la Nueva Izquierda, los historiadores mexicanos siguen mostrando posiciones divergentes con respecto al marco conceptual de la Nueva Izquierda.

In alignment with recent scholarship questioning the role of tastemakers and their verdicts on popular Mexican cinema, this article draws on Andrew Higson’s theorization of national films as strategic interventions within the heterogenous and even contradictory symbolic field of national-identity discourses. Through film analysis and informed by Claudio Lomnitz’s understanding of Mexico’s three national totems, this study demonstrates how Gavaldón’s Macario promotes popular death culture by embedding it within key preexisting discourses tied to Mexican identity. In so doing, this article illuminates Macario’s significance within Mexican cinema history as the most prominent filmic contributor to the hoisting of Mexican death culture as the symbol of mexicanidad. Moreover, this study posits Gavaldón’s film as an indispensable precursor for understanding how Mexican death culture today operates matter of factly as metonym for the nation in audiovisual mediums consumed globally.Abstract:A pesar de su éxito taquillero en México y reconocimiento en el extranjero, Macario de Roberto Gavaldón (1960) ha sido marginalizada por críticos y académicos debido a sus pretensiones artísticas, exaltación de la cultura popular nacionalista, influencias europeas y el supuesto declive del cine nacional después de la época de oro. En consonancia con recientes estudios que cuestionan aproximaciones hacia el cine popular, este artículo se basa en la teorización de películas nacionales como intervenciones dentro del campo discursivamente heterogéneo de la identidad nacional. A través de análisis fílmico e informado por el estudio de los tres tótems nacionales (Claudio Lomnitz), argumento que Macario promueve la cultura popular de la muerte por medio de su inserción dentro de otros discursos preexistentes ligados a la identidad mexicana. De esta manera, se plantea la importancia de Macario como la película nacional que más prominentemente ha contribuido a la elevación de Día de Muertos como símbolo de la mexicanidad y, por lo tanto, su posición como precursor indispensable para comprender la función metonímica que hoy ejerce Día de Muertos en representaciones audiovisuales de México consumidas globalmente.","PeriodicalId":44006,"journal":{"name":"MEXICAN STUDIES-ESTUDIOS MEXICANOS","volume":"39 1","pages":"241 - 270"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45577177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Centuries after those foundational and enforced displacements, well into the twenty-first century, Indigenous mobilities challenge the geography of mestizo/Ladino nationalist maps. We are witnessing great diversity in Indigenous peoples’ displacements and mobilities that question the typical concepts and approaches used to characterize urban marginalization and rural Indigenous peasants. In addition to mass labor-related displacements, others are due to expulsion or people fleeing violence, or because of the transformation of how younger generations conceptualize their lives, futures, and possibilities.

Indigenous social movements across Abiayala assert the right to self-determination, autonomy, or sovereignty by evoking the “millennial cultures” of Indigenous people. To claim a political logic of origins embedded in phrases like time immemorial is to be involved in time politics. Indigenous politics asserts firstness—as First Nations or original peoples—to challenge colonial and settler forms of recognition that rely on a temporal logic that centers settlers’ arrival while locking Indigenous people in a time trap in which their authenticity—indeed often the definition of who is counted in Indigenous—does not change (Barker 2011). Indigenous rights are evoked in political declarations not only through the millennial cultures of Indigenous peoples but also through their continued presence and the fight for their futurities, which is part of the struggle to dismantle a genocidal trope that renders Indigenous cultures as perpetually fixed in the past.
