Cruz, Jorge Jr. "A Selective Lineage of Mexican Bassoonists." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2017. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1011773/.

Full text

Abstract:

Spanish settlers brought the precursor to the bassoon, el bajón, to Mexico in the late sixteenth century. Documentation of the bassoon was intermittently from the sixteenth century on, the current playing traditions were not established until the second half of the twentieth century. Bassoon education in Mexico flourished in the 1970's because several bassoonists became expatriates, and chose to live and work in Mexico for the entirety of their careers. Two major pedagogues, Lazar Stoychev and Jerzy Lemiszka paved the way for the current Mexican bassoon community. This dissertation presents a selective lineage of bassoonists who have held positions in major Mexican orchestras and universities since the mid-twentieth century. The purpose of this study is to recognize the contributions these players and teachers have given to the bassoon world. In recent years, Mexican bassoonists have commissioned hundreds of works for the bassoon and this significant achievement has placed the Mexican bassoon community in an upward trajectory. To place these players in proper historical context, a brief history of classical music institutions in Mexico since the sixteenth century is given. This dissertation documents the history and pedagogy of recent bassoonists in Mexico via a cohesive family tree.

Ratzer, Jane Alexander. "Development of Mexica, a historical fiction screenplay about the conquest of Mexico." Thesis, University of Colorado at Denver, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1588206.

Full text

Abstract:

The primary objectives of this thesis are to research the Conquest of Mexico and to integrate research to expand upon Mexica, a 125 page historical fiction screenplay that was started in 2008 about the 16th century invasion of Mexico by Hernán Cortés. Through quantifying and writing commentary on the revisions to reflect the integration of new research, the enhanced work is accompanied by a critical introduction essay that simultaneously serves as a literature review to determine how sources contributed to the dramatization. The critical introduction is in Spanish, the research was conducted in Spanish and English, and Mexica is in English, to better reach the target, mainstream American audience. The essay addresses schools of thought and theoretical frameworks on the conquest and how they have been accepted, rejected, dramatized and/or incorporated in the screenplay. By analyzing chronicles, literature, film and television relevant to the conquest, narrating experiences and creative license are demonstrated. The essay exhibits a historiographical review by examining myths, misconceptions and consensus on several themes relevant to this era of initial contact in the New World. The critical introduction of Mexica explains how the enhanced script better integrates the indigenous perspective through analysis of a variety of sources, with a non Euro-centric emphasis, to reflect compelling and multidimensional characters in the historical fiction genre.

What, When and Where to Develop? The purpose of this study is to help find the major areas of opportunity for housing development and production in Mexico. The thesis intends to help developers in their eternal quest for the right product, location and timing. The answer to these questions will not only help developers with decision making regarding housing projects, but will be helpful to the industry as a whole. It will help lending institutions determine which projects to finance and will be a valuable tool for local and federal governments in determining which cities and income levels or housing products need higher government subsidy or support. The number of housing units sold in Mexico in the last decade has almost quadrupled, yet market forecasts generated by institutions and developers seem negligible. A greater effort to assess the housing demand and deficit has been made by private institutions and government entities which finance most housing sales in the country, while developers seem only to go as far as is necessary to secure financing for their respective projects. This study provides an outlook of the housing markets in Mexico and includes an analysis of what is currently being done to measure and forecast housing demand. The thesis concludes with rigorous economics analysis intended to forecast markets through a Vector Autoregression (VAR) Model. The model uses 15 years of historical data on housing prices, inventories and sales with economic and demographic variables to create forecasts for seven cities representing each of the seven regions the country was segmented into for the study.

Abstract:

This thesis analyze the economic development and FDI prospects in the context of the Free Trade Agreements that Mexico has signed in the context of NAFTA with the United States and Canada, as well as EU-MEXICO FTA with the European Union. The analysis will be focused around the regional allocation of FDI, the analysis of the main industrial sectors where FDI lands and on the most active foreign investors in the country. However, a new series of reforms and measures to advance liberalization have triggered the interest of other countries to invest in Mexico; Most notably, from Europe. These new FDI inflows are being allocated in different regions and shifting away from manufacturing industries into the service sectors and on to new investment opportunities in strategic industries.

Watson, Iain William. "Politics and resistance in international relations : a study of the Emiliano Zapata Army of National Liberation (EZLN) as a critical social movement." Thesis, University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, 2000. http://hdl.handle.net/10443/439.

Full text

Abstract:

The 1994 mobilisation of the Emiliano Zapata Army of National Liberation (EZLN) in the Chiapas state of Southern Mexico prompted much academic and political debate. The EZLN proposed a variety of economic, political, social and. cultural demands in the ensuing days, weeks, months and years. Academic and political commentators using a variety of conceptual and interpretive frameworks sought to make sense of this social movement and assess whether the EZLN was truly significant. This thesis develops a distinctive coverage and critique of these approaches by arguing that the EZLN represents much more than current studies of the movement allow. The thesis argues that the EZLN represents the need and provides the opportunity for a profound rethinking of social movement theory and its assumptions. The thesis argues that the EZLN can help inform current interest in developing a thinking space in Critical International Relations Theory and invokes a problematisation of current conceptual approaches to the nature, the issues, the objectives and the strategies of contemporary social movements, in theory and practice

Peasey, Anne Elizabeth. "Human exposure to Ascaris infection through wastewater reuse in irrigation and its public health significance." Thesis, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (University of London), 2000. http://researchonline.lshtm.ac.uk/4646510/.

Full text

Abstract:

A longitudinal study of Ascaris lumbricoides reinfection over a 9-10 month period was carried out in a wastewater irrigated fanning region in Central Mexico (September 1989 - May 1991). The study assessed the relationship between different levels of exposure and its components, in the context of wastewater irrigation, and the prevalence and intensity of Ascaris infection. Three farming populations were studied: (1) those who irrigated with untreated or raw wastewater; (2) those who irrigated with wastewater that had sedimented during passage through a storage reservoir (a form of partial treatment); and (3) those who lived in a rain-fed area. Individuals' exposure to Ascaris eggs was estimated by in-depth interviews (characterising the frequency and type of contact with wastewater). Wastewater contact through agricultural activities was also estimated by structured observation. Predisposition to Ascaris infection was largely a consequence of behavioural and environmental factors that caused wastewater contact. Overdispersion of Ascaris intensity in the study population was not age- or gender-dependent. Over the 12-month monitoring period, untreated wastewater had a mean concentration of 96 Ascaris egg/litre and sedimented wastewater a concentration of < 1 Ascaris egg/litre. Contact with untreated wastewater during various activities was associated with differing degrees of excess risk of Ascaris infection in the respective groups: -crop irrigation: 3-fold risk among children -chilli production: 5-fold risk among men and higher intensity infections -tending livestock: 4-fold risk among women -consumption of crops irrigated with wastewater: 2-fold risk in men and children and higher intensity infections in children -sweeping the yard: 5-fold risk in women Contact with sedimented wastewater during play was associated with more than a two-fold risk in Ascaris infection among children, and during maize production, with higher intensity infections among men. The nematode egg guideline of ~l egg/litre is adequate to protect the health of farmers using wastewater in agriculture, but is not sufficient to protect children. Any future modifications of the guideline must consider this.

Abstract:

Aim: The aim of this thesis was to map specific musculoskeletal impairments experienced by adults with physical disabilities at the Piña Palmera rehabilitation center in Mexico and to categorize them according to the ICF. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted through observations and a survey based on predefined questions. The questions covered the individuals’ level of independence, pain, earlier treatment and biggest obstacle in daily life. The participants were observed when they received physical therapy or in their daily work at the center. The results from the survey and observations were later coded according to ICF. The participants were categorized and divided into groups depending on severity of their impairment: mild, moderate and severe. Results: This study includes 17 participants, nine women and eight men. The age of the participants ranged from 22 to 87 years (median: 44). The result shows an overview of the most common impairments that individuals’ who are visiting the center are affected by. The result also shows all the codes for each individual on the ICF-components. Conclusion: The group with severe loss of function had higher level of problem on the investigated components of ICF. Assistive device that should be prioritized is AFO.
Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att kartlägga de specifika muskuloskelettära funktionsnedsättningarna hos vuxna människor med fysiska funktionshinder på Piña Palmera rehabiliteringscenter i Mexico samt att kategorisera dessa enligt International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. Metod: Denna tvärsnittsstudie genomfördes genom observationer och ett förberett frågeformulär. Frågeformuläret innehöll frågor som rörde individens självständighetsförmåga, smärta, tidigare behandlingar samt deltagarens självupplevda största hinder i vardagen. Deltagarna observerades under besök hos fysioterapeuten eller i deras vardagliga arbete på centret. Resultatet från intervjun och undersökningarna kodades enligt ICF och deltagarna delades in i grupper beroende på grad av funktionsnedsättning, mild, medel eller svår. Resultat: Denna studie inkluderar 17 deltagare, nio kvinnor och åtta män. Deltagarnas ålder är mellan 22 och 87 år (median: 44 år). Resultatet ger en överblick på de vanligaste funktionshindren hos individer som besöker centret. Resultatet visar också kodningen för varje individ för fyra olika komponenter inom ICF. Slutsats: Gruppen med svår funktionsnedsättning hade högre problemgrad på alla ICF-komponenter, vilket var väntat. De assisterande hjälpmedlen som bör prioriteras för centret är AFO.

Abstract:

Humboldt wrote about Mexico from the perspective of a scientific explorer and naturalist. His works include his diaries, the Essai politique sur le royaume de la Nouvelle-Espagne, the Tablas géograficas, the Vues des Cordillères and a geographic atlas. Concerning the scientific aspect, the lack of a section on Mexico in the Relation historique is not a real deficit, since this can be found in the Essai. But only the diaries and letters from the journey, both published by the Alexander-von-Humboldt Research Centre, Berlin, can be considered an adequate substitute. The following will show the origin of Humboldt's writings on Mexico, offer historical and bibliographical facts and present the publications "Beiträge zur Alexander von Humboldt-Forschung", as well as Humboldt’s handwritten estate as far as they are available to us.
Humboldt escribió sobre México desde la perspectiva de un explorador científico y un naturalista. Sus obras incluyen diarios, el "ensayo político sobre el reino de la Nueva España", las tablas geográficas, las vistas de las Cordilleras y un atlas geográfico. En lo relacionado al aspecto científico la falta de una sección dedicada a México en la "relation historique" no representa un déficit real, porque ésta se encuentra en el ensayo. Pero sólo los diarios y las cartas de viaje, ambos publicados por el Centro de Investigación Alexander-von-Humboldt, Berlín, pueden ser considerados un substituto adecuado. El siguiente texto mostrará los origenes de los escritos de Humboldt acerca de México, ofrecerá hechos históricos y bibliográficos y presentará las publicaciones "Beiträge zur Alexander von Humboldt-Forschung" así como los manuscritos de Humboldt según éstos sean accesibles a nosotros.

Abstract:

In this thesis I have examined the role of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) in fuelling hostcountries economic developments. By looking closer into Mexico and the case of automobile industry which has been historically the subject of control of foreign affiliates I observed coinciding patterns. Through North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) the channels between trade and investments have become more obvious and even transparent. Speaking about Mexico’s economic developments, albeit the total volumes of trade have increased, the country’s terms-of- trade were deteriorating following the post-NAFTA years. While conducting the research I have made use of neo-liberal economic discourses, theories of international trade and investment in order to explain the underlying motives for free-trade. These motives offer solid arguments to adopt the strategy of export orientation. While investigating the investments form multinationals and comparable Mexican trade performance, I have fund that exports and FDI flows have seemingly unrelated. The country has been a significant receiver of foreign imports at the time of post-NAFTA developments and huge FDI inflows. The result was that capacity of domestic production was limited and the trade imbalance ensured. Analysis explores closer relation between FDI and the country’s import levels which cause deterioration in the terms of trade and economic growth. The explanation lies in the nature of FDI per se. The type of investment in Mexico is essentially market-seeking, since it adjusts to the international competitive pressures, and search access to comparatively advantageous foreign markets, explained by the theory of capital movements. This paper also questions and raises concern with regard to the consequences of these pressures that leads to race-to-the-bottom policies.

Full text

Abstract:

This project investigates experiences of type 2 diabetes among Mexican immigrants living in Tucson, with a specific focus on conceptualizations of risk, heritability, individual responsibility, and experiences of emotion. It combines questions about the negative impacts of structural factors on the health of immigrants in the U.S. with questions about conceptualizations of risk. Participants viewed individual responsibility as an important ethical value in terms of managing risk. Because of the hereditary nature of diabetes, discourse on responsibility could be interpreted as an at-risk illness narrative. An emphasis on individual responsibility in diabetes management led to negative emotions both for the person with diabetes and their family members, as well as feelings of blame on the part of family members. Negative emotions cause conflict within families, and in the instance of depression or feelings of resignation, impede self-care.

Abstract:

The objective of this work is to expose the perceptions and misconceptions of the German people about Mexico and Mexican products. The paper starts with the importance of the brand name and the influence that a country has on a brand that gets to foreign branding. Then the country of Mexico and some features about Mexico will be briefly described. Also it is explained the difference of Tex-Mex and Mexican food. Then, the perceptions of Mexico are analyzed through the results of a survey. It ends with a recommendation to the companies that want to brand a product with foreign characteristics as well as recommendations for the country of Mexico. The non-product-related attributes like the brand and packaging are the characteristics easier to identify by customers. Some brands now are taking advantage of characteristics about countries and using them to make customers believe that some products are something that they are not. Popular Mexican stereotypes are being used by marketers to make products more attractive or to make the consumers believe that the product is Mexican. This has both good and bad consequences for Mexico. It brings attention to the country, but it also creates an unrealistic image of Mexico.

Full text

Abstract:

In the decades following the Revolution, government officials and industrialists attempted to strike a balance between preserving a unique national identity and asserting Mexico's place in global affairs as a competitive, modern nation. Veneration of the aviators' bravery and technological mastery cut across political and cultural boundaries, setting standards for the model citizen of a modern world. The symbolic figure of the pilot proved an adept vessel for disseminating the values championed by the country's ruling party. Aviators validated the technological determinism that underpinned the government's development philosophy to domestic audiences, while projecting an image of strength abroad. This study explores the spectacle of aviation in cultural events including film, airshows, goodwill flights, and state-sponsored funerals, connecting the history of aviation to often-conflicting discourses of Revolutionary nationalism and modern cosmopolitanism that were espoused by both national and regional elites.

Abstract:

Safety of a building's occupants is of primary concern in the design of a building. However, geophysical hazards such as earthquakes, still pose dangers to occupants of buildings. In an earthquake-resistant structure, even during a moderate shake, objects which are part of non-structural systems, accelerated by the sudden motion of the building, can hurt building occupants and cause damage to their property. The adoption of simple earthquake precautionary measures, could almost entirely eliminate this hazard. The adoption of these actions is the responsibility of occupants themselves, as part of their response to earthquake risk.
Previous personal experience with earthquakes has been identified to be a major component of response to hazard risk. This response relates to the incorporation of earthquake risk into daily life, by the adoption of earthquake precautionary measures, which could make a substantial difference in reducing loss of life and damage to property during an earthquake. Therefore, the investigation of occupants living patterns in relation to earthquake safety gives an insight on their vulnerability and level of adoption of earthquake precautionary measures, particularly in a city constantly exposed to ground shakes such as Mexico City. This research project concentrates in the study of the internal layout characteristics of the dwellings in a social housing complex built after the 1985 Mexico City earthquake.

Abstract:

Aguascalientes is a medium-sized city in Mexico. Its location and industrial policies have proven favorable to the continuing arrival of many industries. Immigrants are easily inserted into the labor market, but the access to low-cost housing for the workers is difficult. Nevertheless, the city continues to attract newcomers. The economy in Mexico collapsed in the early 90's, and many housing programs at the local level were cancelled, and housing prices became expensive. Consequently, people opted for less expensive housing solutions. One of the alternatives was to build on the ejido land, (expropriated lands handed over to land-less people in the form of collective holding and tenancy) a sui-generis tenure of land that has existed in Mexico since 1917. The analysis of both the ejido lands as a target of irregular human settlements and the consolidation process of these areas is the subject of this study.

Abstract:

Between 1950 and 1970 television emerged as one of the most important forms of mass communication in Mexico. An analysis of television news scripts and film clips located at the Televisa (the nation’s largest television network) Archives in Mexico City exposed tensions and traditions in television news. The tensions reveal conflicts between: the government and media producers; modernity and the desire to create traditions and maintain those already invented; elite controllers of the media and popular viewers; a male dominated business and female news producers and viewers; an elite (mostly white) group of media moguls and a poor mestizo and indigenous viewers; and the United States and Mexico in the midst of the Cold War. In contrast to the trend in scholarship on Mexican television, this dissertation demonstrates that media executives such as Emilio Azcárrraga Milmo and high ranking government officials within the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) maintained close connections, but the two groups did not always walk in lock-step. Analysis of newscast scripts and film clips located at Televisa’s (Mexico’s largest network) Archive reveal a more complex picture, which shows there were several and sometimes competing visions for the country's future. Examining the first twenty years of television news in Mexico City, the author focuses on production, content, and interpretations of the news. The dissertation finds evidence to prove that news producers and writers formed tele-traditions that influenced news production, content, and interpretation well into the 1980s. Unprecedented access to Televisa Archives allowed the author to ask and answer questions, that to date scholars have not treated, such as, what makes Mexican television news Mexican? The dissertation is grounded in a theoretical framework called hybridity of framing, which combines the concepts of cultural hybridity and news framing. The dissertation concludes that although news producers and writers attempted to frame events in certain ways, viewers often interpreted the news differently.

Abstract:

The aim of this master thesis is to analyze the approaches of members of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). The work is divided into three chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the analysis of NAFTA, primarily to its creation and approaches of the individual members during negotiations, main provisions and objectives of this free trade area. The second chapter analyzes the main reasons that led the states to join NAFTA and their current positions within the zone. The last chapter is dedicated to TPP, its main provisions and position of NAFTA members in this agreement.

Abstract:

The word "vecindad" in Spanish means neighborhood, but the word is also used to describe a dwelling form. The vecindad is usually known as a row of one-room dwellings surrounding an open space or patio. This kind of dwelling form exists in most Latin American countries as well as in Spain, however the word "vecindad" is used exclusively in Mexico. This dwelling form existed in Spain under the name of "corrales" and it was brought to Mexico in the XVI century with the Conquest of 1521. Initially, vecindades were built as multi-family tenements to rent to low-income artisans or workers in Mexico. There are two kinds: the multi-storied ones which were built within the Traza, which was the first design of Mexico City by the Spaniards; and the one-storied buildings built in the Indian barrios located on the periphery of the Traza.
While each vecindad is different, they share the same elements such as the zahuan (entrance), the patio, the dwellings and the accesorias (commercial spaces). The number and dimensions of these elements vary depending on the characteristics of each vecindad.
From the XVI century until the early XX century, vecindades comprised the majority of the housing stock in Mexico City. In the 1940's, due to the ideas of Functionalism, vecindades ceased to be built and were relegated as an old and traditional dwelling form in the center of the city.
This thesis presents the origin, evolution and present condition of vecindades within the Traza of Mexico City. Their adaptability to fulfill social, cultural and political circumstances throughout the history of Mexico City reveals their importance as the city's main collective urban dwelling form.

Abstract:

From a current population near 19 million, the Mexico City metropolis may exceed 27 million by the year 2000. The many problems associated with this massive level of urban concentration include severe levels of air pollution, paralyzing congestion, and increasing costs of urban services provision. Meanwhile, the nation's periphery continues to suffer from severe economic and social underdevelopment relative to the nation's capital. Regional policies and plans to address these problems have been dominated by the concept of decentralizing the nation's urban-industrial system: i.e., dispersing urban and industrial growth from the metropolitan core to the national periphery. Mexican regional policy makers and planners have failed to adequately evaluate these proposed policies and plans for decentralization in a critical and rigorous manner. This evaluation must be made in terms of three critical criteria. The first is effectiveness: will a proposed plan genuinely return the benefits which are expected or hoped for? The second is efficiency: among several possible planning alternatives, which will return the greatest social benefits for the smallest social costs? The third is equity: which regional interest groups will be affected, and how will the costs and benefits be distributed among these groups? Research is based on three principal data sources: Mexico's National Development Plan: 1983-1988, which has predominantly determined the nation's sectoral, social, and regional policies during the de la Madrid administration; a plan prepared for the quasi-governmental Commission for the Conurbation of the Nation's Center, for urban-industrial deconcentration from Mexico City into the nation's Central Region; and extensive fieldwork in Mexico City and several other Mexican urban centers, concerned with the actual practice of regional economic development in Mexico today. Based on this research, a regionally disaggregated cost-benefit framework is proposed for policy and planning evaluation, and particularly to facilitate conflict resolution, negotiation, and other forms of adjustment among the many powerful interest groups which compete for scarce regional development resources.

Abstract:

C'est en nous penchant sur le parcours de formation des ouvrières que cette recherche se propose d'analyser le processus d'intégration des femmes au travail industriel. Processus qui s'effectue de manière différente dans la classe ouvrière selon l'appartenance sexuelle. Le cadre de ce travail se situe dans la division sexuelle du travail qui assigne à l'homme et à la femme un rôle spécifique dans la famille et dans la production. C'est justement à partir de l'articulation des rapports productifs et rapports reproductifs que nous développons une analyse sur le processus de mise au travail industriel des femmes. Nous cherchons à mettre en évidence les articulations entre la vie familiale et l'activité professionnelle des ouvrières. En analysant le parcours de formation il s'agit aussi d'identifier, de valoriser des pratiques sociales des ouvrières au sein de ces articulations. Cette recherche s'attache à l'intégration massive des femmes dans l'industrie de transformation, laquelle, ayant subi un processus de transformation important au niveau de la ville de Mexico, est devenue la branche la plus dynamique de l'économie mexicaine. La population de référence de la recherche est composée des ouvrières de production exerçant des taches d'exécution et travaillant à mexico.
