Paperback. Condición: New. Basque Immigrants and Nevada's Sheep Industry is a rich and complex exploration of the history of Basque immigration to the rangelands of Nevada and the interior West. It looks critically at the Basque sheepherders in the American West and more broadly at the modern history of American foreign relations with Spain after the Second World War.Between the 1880s and the 1950s, the western open-range sheep industry was the original economic attraction for Basque immigrants. This engaging study tracks the development of the Basque presence in the American West, providing deep detail about the sheepherders' history, native and local culture, the challenges they faced, and the changing conditions under which the Basques lived and worked. Saitua also shows how Basque immigrant sheepherders went from being a marginalized labor group to a desirable, high-priced workforce in response to the constant demand for their labor power.As the twentieth century progressed, the geopolitical tide in America began to change. In 1924, the Restrictive Immigration Act resulted in a truncated labor supply from the Basque Country in Spain. During the Great Depression and the Second World War, the labor shortage became acute. In response, Senator Patrick McCarran from Nevada lobbied on behalf of his wool-growing constituency to open immigration doors for Basques, the most desirable laborers for tending sheep in remote places. Subsequently, Cold War international tensions offered opportunities for a reconciliation between the United States and Francisco Franco, despite Spain's previous sympathy with the Axis powers.This fresh portrayal shows how Basque immigrants became the backbone of the sheep industry in Nevada. It also contributes to a wider understanding of the significance of Basque immigration by exploring the role of Basque agricultural labor in the United States, the economic interests of Western ranchers, and McCarran's diplomacy as catalysts that eventually helped bring Spain into the orbit of western democracies.…

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Nuevo. 01. Los seres humanos no sabemos vivir sin héroes. Por lo menos desde la Grecia clásica, los héroes, reales o ficticios, así como sus oponentes los villanos, han acompañado a la humanidad a lo largo de los siglos y en contextos históricos muy diversos. No hace falta buscar en la historia: El personal sanitario y su abnegada lucha contra el coronavirus en unas condiciones radicalmente adversas nos ofrecen otro ejemplo de héroes y heroínas en la actualidad del siglo XXI. Esta inmutable pervivencia de los héroes (y, en mucha menor medida, de las heroínas) apunta a una constante antropológica de la naturaleza humana, que, en el transcurso del tiempo, ha ido incorporando al héroe y su culto en su ADN. Sin embargo, el estudio del héroe y de su oponente ha ocupado durante mucho tiempo solo un lugar marginal en las ciencias sociales. Tanto la funesta experiencia con los héroes totalitarios como el hecho de que el héroe, por definición, cuestiona el principio más sagrado de cualquier democracia, a saber: el principio de la igualdad, pueden explicar estas reticencias de analizar un fenómeno tan relevante no solo en la historia sino también en la política actual. Enlazando con el creciente interés por las construcciones simbólicas e imaginarias promovido por la historia cultural, y combinando el análisis de casos seleccionados con la reflexión teórica, este libro contribuye a mejorar el conocimiento sobre el complejo fenómeno de los héroes y los villanos, su creación, su socialización y su género, así como su funcionalidad.
