This article analyzes the organization of the shopkeepers of the city of Buenos Aires -the small groceries in particular- from their early experiences to the emergence of the Peronist movement. Their main associations, demands and political strategies are described, as well as the links of solidarity that they built with other occupations and professions, and the impact of the Peronist phenomenon on previous traditions of struggle and organization. Special attention is paid to the identities that the shopkeepers used in different contexts when it came to promoting and defending their interests. ; Este trabajo e propone examinar las experiencias de organización gremial de los pequeños comerciantes porteños -en particular los almaceneros- desde los inicios de su impulso asociativo hasta los años del primer peronismo. Luego de una reseña de sus principales entidades, sus reclamos y las formas de hacerlos valer, el trabajo examina las experiencias de solidaridad transgremial y políticas que animaron los pequeños comerciantes y el modo en que debieron adaptarse al nuevo escenario abierto por la llegada de Perón al poder. Atención especial se presta a las identidades sociales puestas en juego a la hora de promover sus intereses y el impacto en ellas del discurso político del peronismo.

This book treats the spectacular rise in life expectancy during the last three centuries. It is the first study to bring together both published and unpublished material about the history of the health of Belgian men and women and to analyze it critically. Isabelle Devos studies the mechanisms of the historic fall in the death rate in an original manner and answers the question why research on the causes of this decline has not progressed faster. While the discipline of historical demography orients the first part of her book, the discipline of historical epidemiology provides the perspective taken in the second part, in which the role of insects as spreaders of disease is explored. Essential in her study is the importance of local medical practitioners who already at the end of the Ancien Régime warned of the dangers present in the environment. Their 'ecological' thinking created a consciousness that was decisive for the further development of healthcare

"This volume brings into a common context three representative sources which focus on monetary problems in 17th century Spain. Each source approaches the consequences of coin debasement from a different angle, which allows an enhanced overall view of the magnitude of a problem that affected the whole of the social spectrum in the Spanish Kingdom of Castile for most of the 17th century. In addition to considerations derived from observing monetary phenomena, these sources shed light on other aspects of early modern Castilian society. The perceptions held by their authors are valuable not only from the point of view of monetary history, but from that of social history and historical anthropology."--Back cover
