" Maya Caciques in Early National Yucatn provides an updated account of Maya village headmen in the first half-century following Mexican independence in 1821. Rajeshwari Dutt's detailed narrative contributes to our knowledge of how Maya peoples responded to pressures generated by the construction of the modern Mexican state." --Terry Rugeley , author of Rebellion Now and Forever: Mayas, Hispanics, and Caste War Violence in Yucatn, 1800-1880, " Maya Caciques in Early National Yucatán provides an updated account of Maya village headmen in the first half-century following Mexican independence in 1821.

Synopsis
Andr s Canch became the cacique , or indigenous leader, of Cenotillo, Yucat n, in January 1834. By his retirement in 1864, he had become an expert politician, balancing powerful local alliances with his community's interests as early national Yucat n underwent major political and social shifts. In Maya Caciques in Early National Yucat n , Rajeshwari Dutt uses Canch 's story as a compelling microhistory to open a new perspective on the role of the cacique in post-independence Yucat n. In most of the literature on Yucat n, caciques are seen as remnants of Spanish colonial rule, intermediaries whose importance declined over the early national period. Dutt instead shows that at the individual level, caciques became more politicized and, in some cases, gained power. Rather than focusing on the rebellion and violence that inform most scholarship on post-independence Yucat n, Dutt traces the more quotidian ways in which figures like Canch held onto power. In the process, she presents an alternative perspective on a tumultuous period in Yucat n's history, a view that emphasizes negotiation and alliance-making at the local level. At the same time, Dutt's exploration of the caciques' life stories reveals a larger narrative about the emergence, evolution, and normalization of particular forms of national political conduct in the decades following independence. Over time, caciques fashioned a new political repertoire, forming strategic local alliances with villagers, priests, Spanish and Creole officials, and other caciques. As state policies made political participation increasingly difficult, Maya caciques turned clientelism, or the use of patronage relationships, into the new modus operandi of local politics. Dutt's engaging exploration of the life and career of Andr s Canch , and of his fellow Maya caciques, illuminates the realities of politics in Yucat n, revealing that seemingly ordinary political relationships were carefully negotiated by indigenous leaders. Theirs is a story not of failure and decline, but of survival and empowerment., Dutt's engaging exploration of the life and career of Andrés Canché, and of his fellow Maya caciques, illuminates the realities of politics in Yucatán, revealing that seemingly ordinary political relationships were carefully negotiated by indigenous leaders.

- e***u (283)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
 - e***n (392)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.
