With the arrival of Europeans, native Maya with long and successful cultural and diplomatic traditions of their own had to grapple with outside forces attempting to impose new templates of life and politics on them. Conflict and Carnage in Yucatán provides a rigorously researched study of the vexed and bloody period of 1855 to 1876, during which successive national governments implemented, replaced, and restored liberal policies. Synthesizing an extensive and heterogeneous range of sources, Douglas W. Richmond covers three tumultuous political upheavals of this period. First, Mexico's fledgling republic attempted to impose a liberal ideology at odds with traditional Maya culture on Yucatán; then, the French-backed regime of Emperor Maximilian began to reform Yucatán; and, finally, the republican forces of Benito Juárez restored the liberal hegemony. Many issues spurred resistance to these liberal governments. Instillation of free trade policies, the suppression of civil rights, and persecution of the Roman Catholic Church mobilized white opposition to liberal governors. The Mayas fought the seizure of their communal properties. A long-standing desire for regional autonomy united virtually all Yucatecans. Richmond advances the thought-provoking argument that Yucatán both fared better under Maximilian's Second Empire than under the liberal republic and would have thrived more had the Second Empire not collapsed. The most violent and bloody manifestation of these broad conflicts was the Caste War (Guerra de Castas), the longest sustained peasant revolt in Latin American history. Where other scholars have advocated the simplistic position that the war was a Maya uprising designed to reestablish a mythical past civilization, Richmond's sophisticated recounting of political developments from 1855 to 1876 restores nuance and complexity to this pivotal time in Yucatecan history. Richmond's Conflict and Carnage in Yucatán is a welcome addition to scholarship about Mexico and Yucatán as well as about state consolidation, empire, and regionalism"-- |cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription History Reference Center Collection 611 27 European Intervention in Mexico (1861-1867)|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01353058 648 7 1800-1899|2fast 650 0 Liberalism|zMexico|xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Regionalism|xPolitical aspects|zMexico|xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Revolutions|zYucatán Peninsula|xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Peasants|xPolitical activity|zYucatán Peninsula|xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 Mayas|zYucatán Peninsula|xPolitics and government|y19th century. 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xPolitical Ideologies|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|zLatin America|xMexico.|2bisacsh 650 7 Liberalism.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00997183 650 7 Mayas|xPolitics and government.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01012822 650 7 Peasants|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01734422 650 7 Politics and government.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 Regionalism|xPolitical aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01093212 650 7 Revolutions.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01096737 650 7 Politischer Konflikt.|2gnd 650 7 Unruhen.|2gnd 651 0 Mexico|xPolitics and government|y19th century. 651 0 Mexico|xHistory|yEuropean intervention, 1861-1867. 651 0 Mexico|xHistory|y1821-1861. 651 0 Yucatán Peninsula|xHistory, Military|y19th century. 651 0 Yucatán Peninsula|xPolitics and government|y19th century. 651 7 Central America|zYucatán Peninsula.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01243915 651 7 Mexico.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01211700 651 7 Yucatán.|2gnd 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Military history.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411630 776 08 |iPrint version:|aRichmond, Douglas W., 1946-|tConflict and carnage in Yucatán.|w(DLC) 2014034311 914 ocn904033574 994 92|bSTJ
