The history of Mexico in the twentieth century is marked by
conflict between church and state. This book focuses on the efforts
of the Roman Catholic Church to influence Mexican society through
Jesuit-led organizations such as the Mexican Catholic Youth
Association, the National Catholic Student Union, and the
Universidad Iberoamericana. Dedicated to the education and
indoctrination of Mexico's middle- and upper-class youth, these
organizations were designed to promote conservative Catholic
values. The author shows that they left a very different imprint on
Mexican society, training a generation of activists who played
important roles in politics and education. Ultimately, Espinosa
shows, the social justice movement that grew out of Jesuit
education fostered the leftist student movement of the 1960s that
culminated in the Tlatelolco massacre of 1968. This study
demonstrates the convergence of the Church, Mexico's new business
class, and the increasingly pro-capitalist PRI, the party that has
ruled Mexico in recent decades. Espinosa's archival research has
led him to important but long-overlooked events like the student
strike of 1944, the internal upheavals of the Church over
liberation theology, and the complicated relations between the
Jesuits and the conservative business class. His book offers vital
new perspectives for scholars of education, politics, and religion
in twentieth-century Mexico.
In Online Predators, An Internet Insurgency: A Field Manual for
Teaching and Parenting in the Digital Arena Jeffrey A. Lee brings
his ten plus years' experience in the fight against online child
exploitation to bear in an easy to follow guide for all with a
stake in the life of a child. This book equips parents, guardians,
extended family, and educational professionals with practical
strategies to help keep kids safe in a technology connected world.
Instead of focusing on ever changing technology, Lee proposes a key
fundamental change in the fight against online predation-to develop
an insatiable curiosity about their child's online life, then get
in the front lines and stay there.
