Book Description
The term “gastrocracy” refers to the appropriation of discourses and practices related to the sourcing, preparation, distribution, and consumption of food for political purposes. The intersections of gastronomy and governance, dating in Spain to the last quarter of the nineteenth century, have become highly visible over the past decade, when political debates around nationalism in its different forms have taken the guise of discussions about regional and local cuisines. Concomitant with the rise of the “slow food” movement and following UNESCO’s addition in 2011 of “Gastronomic Meal of the French” to its list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, public and private associations all around Spain have been established with the goal of achieving recognition by UNESCO for Spanish, Catalan, and other national cuisines. In 2016, Gastro Marca España—an association and a web portal—was launched to raise the profile of food in Spain’s national brand. Eliciting wide public participation, co-opted for political purposes, regarded as a factor of economic development on any scale, and integrated into every so-called banal nationalism, the production, distribution, and consumption of food are highly relevant for historical analysis. Seeking to encourage a broader discussion about Peninsular gastrocracies, this book brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars from different sides of the Atlantic and the Pacific who have spearheaded research on gastronomy and governance in Spain.

Book Description
In the continuing U.S. debate over illegal immigration, a human face has rarely been shown. The topic has been presented as a monolithic abstraction, a creation of statistics, political rhetoric, and fear. This collection of letters between undocumented immigrants in California and their families back home reveals the other side of the story. Published for the first time in paperback, Between the Lines reveals the often poignant human drama currently being played out along the U.S.-Mexico border. The letters, presented in Spanish and English, express powerful feelings of hope, uncertainty, and fear among the undocumented travelers as they arrive in the United States and seek work, social support and legal status. The letters from their families in Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador return feelings of hope, love, and support. Translator/editor Siems provides a powerful and lyrical introductory essay that sets the stage for the letters that follow.

Book Description
El deporte más peligroso no es el fútbol americano. Es volar una cometa. El mapa del mundo es impreciso. Los silenciadores no existen. Todos pronuncian "Monte Everest" incorrectamente. El Viejo Oeste no era nada como lo imaginamos. Los Illuminati existieron durante solamente ocho años. Los satanistas no adoran a Satanás. A Abraham Lincoln no le importaba la gente de color. Amelia Earhart no desapareció misteriosamente. Egipto no tiene no la mayor cantidad de pirámides ni la más grande. La radiación no es peligrosa. No sabemos nada de los druidas. Las Cataratas del Niágara no son las más altas cascadas. Las Islas Canarias no se llaman así por los canarios. No todos los piratas eran criminales. Algunos de ellos eran agentes del gobierno. Los Rastafari no se llaman a sí mismos "Rastafari". El sol no está ardiendo. Los amish (menonitas) sí usan electricidad.
