Based on extensive research in American and Mexican archives, Lomnitz explores the rich, complicated, and virtually unknown lives of Mag and his comrades devoted to the \"Mexican Cause.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis anthropological history of anarchy, cooperation, and betrayal seeks to capture the experience and meaning of these dedicated militants who themselves struggled to understand their role and place at the margins of the Mexican Revolution. For them, the revolution was untranslatable, a pure but deaf subversion: \u003ci\u003e\"La revoluci es la revoluci.\"\u003c\/i\u003e For Lomnitz, their experiences reveal the meaning of this phrase. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Return of Comrade Ricardo Flores Mag\u003c\/i\u003e tracks the lives of John Kenneth Turner, Ethel Duffy, Elizabeth Trowbridge, Ricardo Flores Mag, and L痙aro Guti駻rez de Lara, among others, to illuminate the reciprocal relationship between personal and collective ideology and action. This book is an epic and tragic tale, never before told, about camaraderie and disillusionment in the first transnational grassroots political movement to span the US-Mexico border. This book will revise how we think about not only the Mexican Revolution but also revolutionary action and passion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claudio Lomnitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1935408437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781935408437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zone Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 598\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.80d","brand":"Claudio Lomnitz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043657412863,"sku":"9781935408437","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a728d1a1-d522-46cb-abdd-42800b344ba9.jpg?v=1684968413","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-return-of-comrade-ricardo-claudio-lomnitz-9781935408437","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
