Luke Caverns joins us again in the cube to continue our discussion of his explorations into the mysterious Olmec culture. Who were these people, where did they come from and how old is their civilization? Are all of the artifacts designated as "Olmec" really from a single culture, or are there multiple distinct cultures being lumped together?Join our Patreon, support the show, get extra content and early access! https://www.patreon.com/brothersoftheserpentSupport the show with a paypal donation: https://paypal.me/snakebros

(Aniversario del Bautismo de Miguel de Cervantes) Madrid, 21 de mayo de 1590. Así constan la ciudad y la fecha en cierto documento preparado por un soldado español en representación de sí mismo. Comienza atestiguando que ha servido a Su Majestad muchos años en jornadas de tierra y mar, de manera particular en la Batalla Naval de Lepanto donde perdió una mano de un arcabuzazo. Camino a la corte española, él y un hermano suyo cayeron presos y fueron llevados a Argel. Sus dos hermanas solteras, a fin de rescatarlos, gastaron todo su patrimonio, incluso sus dotes, por lo cual quedaron pobres. Después de libertado, sirvió a la corona española en el Reino de Portugal, y posteriormente prestó servicio en la Armada española. En todo ese tiempo —declara el solicitante—, no se le ha concedido ninguna merced. Por eso pide y suplica humildemente que Su Majestad le haga merced de un cargo en las Indias, de los tres o cuatro que están vacantes. El primero es la Contaduría del Nuevo Reino de Granada; el segundo, la Gobernación de la Provincia de Soconusco en Guatemala; el tercero, Contador de las Galeras de Cartagena; y el cuarto, Corregidor de la Ciudad de la Paz. Y antes de suscribirse, asevera que es hombre hábil y benemérito, apto para desempeñar cualquiera de esos codiciados cargos, y que su deseo es continuar siempre en el servicio de Su Majestad. Firma, «En Madrid, a 21 de mayo de 1590, Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra.» Aquel memorial, tal vez por carecer de la palanca necesaria en la corte, pasó de un escritorio a otro hasta recibir la firma de nueve burócratas del reino. El último de éstos, el Dr. Núñez Morquecho, al fin escribió en el margen las siguientes palabras: «Busque por acá en qué se le haga merced.» Así fue como se le negó la solicitud. La pregunta hipotética que surge en la mente de todo conocedor de literatura española es: ¿Hubiera Cervantes escrito el Quijote de habérsele concedido uno de esos puestos en el Nuevo Mundo? Lo más probable es que no, no porque allá por las Indias no hubiera podido escribir magistralmente, como tantos otros lo han hecho, sino porque seguramente otros temas lo hubieran apasionado más que el del ingenioso hidalgo de la Mancha.1 Ahora bien, la pregunta que debiera importarnos aún más es: Si el Padre celestial se hubiera negado a firmar el memorial de nuestra salvación escrito por su Hijo, ¿podría haberse escrito el Nuevo Testamento de las Sagradas Escrituras? En otras palabras, si Cristo no hubiera venido al mundo, ¿habría salvación para nosotros? A Dios gracias que el tema que más lo apasionó fue el de nuestra salvación. Por esa redención pagó el precio más alto posible cuando envió a su ingenioso Hijo al Viejo Mundo a encarnarse y a derramar su sangre por nosotros.2 ¡Y lo hizo para que pudiéramos llegar a ser hijos suyos,3 nobles hidalgos de sangre y de privilegio divino!

Desde épocas de la Colonia, por su riqueza natural y productiva, el Soconusco fue ambicionado por muchos.

The history of globalization is one that has often been told as a story of elites. There are a number of truths to this narrative. Yet, as Casey Lurtz shows, it also ignores some things. In From the Grounds Up: Building an Export Economy in Southern Mexico, Lurtz tells the history of how a border region, the Soconusco, became  Mexico’s leading coffee exporter. She does so not by focusing on the Mexican politicians and foreign capitalists who came to the Soconusco with dreams of grandeur. Rather, as the title suggest, Lurtz digs below the surface of these visions to reveal the role played by local people in the dual projects of economic liberalism and globalization.

In From the Grounds Up: Building an Export Economy in Southern Mexico (Stanford University Press, 2019), Casey Lurtz explains how the fertile yet isolated region of the Soconusco became integrated into global markets in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth centuries. Located in what is today the state of Chiapas, the Soconusco was a lightly-populated borderlands region where sovereignty was murky, for both Mexico and Guatemala claimed the district and residents moved freely across the scarcely-delineated boundary between national territories. There were other challenges to developing an export economy: the Soconusco faced labor scarcity, lacked institutional and material infrastructure, and was regularly destabilized by political violence. Nevertheless, it became the primary coffee-producing region in Mexico in this era. To trace how this occurred, Lurtz notes the role of politicians and entrepreneurial large landowners, Mexican and foreign, in developing coffee plantations (fincas), but her cast of characters goes beyond the political and economic elite. For the author, local smallholders and migrant laborers were equally central protagonists in the story of how the Soconusco became so productive. She argues that these often-overlooked actors were influential in shaping the region's economy and its integration into international markets. The book's chapters trace how both powerful and marginal figures in the district responded to each of the various impediments to development. Using rich local sources to reconstruct mapping and surveying efforts, ordinary transactions, and legal disputes, Lurtz connects this economic and social history to the political history of nineteenth-century Latin America. Much as political liberalism should be studied as both a set of ideas and a set of practices, the economic aspects of liberalism are also worth examining on the ground at a microhistorical level. Lurtz reveals how economic liberal ideas and structures were invoked and demanded by villagers, workers, and landowners in the Soconusco in order to advance their diverse agenda. Rachel Grace Newman is Lecturer in the History of the Global South at Smith College. She has a Ph.D. in History from Columbia University, and her dissertation was titled “Transnational Ambitions: Student Migrants and the Making of a National Future in Twentieth-Century Mexico.” She is also the author of a book on a binational program for migrant children whose families divided their time between Michoacán, Mexico and Watsonville, California.
