This profound connection between elites was frequently rooted in Mexican elites' own embrace and reestablishment of contentious socioeconomic, cultural, and ethno-racial hierarchies, which positioned them above other groups within their expansive community of Greater Mexico, such as the impoverished, working class, indigenous, or Afro-Mexicans. By employing meticulous close readings of literary texts, including novels, diaries, letters, newspapers, political essays, and travel narratives crafted by nineteenth-century writers hailing from Greater Mexico, Forgotten Futures, Colonized Pasts sheds light on the forgotten visions of how elite Mexicans and Mexican Americans defined themselves and their relationships with Spain, Mexico, the United States, and Anglo America during the nineteenth century. These \"lost\" discourses, once written out of official national narratives and discarded as unrealized or impossible avenues for identity and nation formation, unveil the deep-seated rifts, fractures, violence, and internal colonizations that constitute an integral yet often overlooked facet of Greater Mexico's history and culture. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis captivating book is published by Bucknell University Press and distributed globally by Rutgers University Press.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781684481224\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cara Anne Kinnally","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096863076602,"sku":"9781684481224","price":25.87,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/7d092f7de32c3bffe8915c987d71cfde.jpg?v=1627357989","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/forgotten-futures-colonized-pasts-transnational-collaboration-in-nineteenth-century-greater-mexico","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
