Inhabitants of the rural world in Spain have generally been attributed higher levels of political apathy and acquiescence towards the Francoist dictatorship (1939-1975); but they did not always, nor did most of them, remain passive. The objective of this article is to demystify and reassess the role of the rural world in democratization processes of the 1960s and 1970s in Spain, a period of deterioration in the relationship between the state and the civil society. By looking at episodes of conflict in two of the most dynamic spheres of rural life at that time, the workplace and the Church, we argue that rural society engaged in a democratic learning process through the articulation of protest. The research relies on diverse sources such as letters from people in several eastern Andalusian towns in the provinces of Jaén, Málaga, Granada and Almería along with records from the clandestine Communist Party radio station La Pirenaica, which are available in the AHPCE. We also include the activity reports of clergy from Andalusian dioceses, generated by the Ministry of Information and Tourism, and the annual reports of Civil Governors, both of which are conserved in the state archives (AGA).

Abstract This study investigates a battle over music and identity at Radio Zapotitlán, a community radio station in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. An analysis of over 20 interviews with station organizers, volunteers and listeners conducted in 2009 and 2010 indicates that while organizers and older listeners celebrated Ranchera music as the station’s predominant musical content, younger listeners fought to broadcast contemporary Banda music. An historical and theoretical analysis of Ranchera music explores its cultural role in mediating experiences of migration and nostalgia. This study finds that Radio Zapotitlán organizers promoted Ranchera music in order to engage the national and transnational nostalgia of Zapotitlán’s displaced migrants, and to meet the expectations of government regulators and transnational nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). It concludes that local, regional, national and transnational interests cannot be disentangled in musical articulations of identity at Radio Zapotitlán.

This chapter examines the unfolding of the Maithili movement in post-independent India. One of the major characteristics of the movement in this period has been its gradual shift from a predominantly literary and cultural movement to a more politicized movement. A number of political parties and leaders joined in and have played critical roles in the expansion of the movement. One can divide the Maithili movement in this era into four phases. In the first phase, separate statehood demand for Mithila became the central mobilizing factor immediately after Independence of India in 1950s. Demands for separate statehood extended further to claim Mithila as a union republic. The second phase of the movement was highlighted by the issues regarding the recognition of Maithili as a Modern Indian language in Sahitya Akademi and correct enumeration of Maithili speakers in the census. It also includes other demands like opening of a Mithila University, a radio station at Darbhanga. The third phase was about the demand for inclusion of Maithili in the eighth schedule of the Indian Constitution. This phase also witnessed many protests and demonstrations due to removal of Maithili from BPSC (Bihar Public Service Commission) and for its re-inclusion; for the inclusion of Maithili in secondary school examinations; for implementation of decision regarding the use of Maithili as a medium of instruction at the primary level; for publication of textbooks in Maithili and recruitment of Maithili teachers; for the recognition of Maithili as an administrative language in the state of Bihar, especially when Urdu was made second official language in the state by a Maithili-speaking chief minister, Jagannath Mishra. The fourth and contemporary phase of the Maithili movement has been witnessing reassertion of separate statehood demands particularly after the creation of Jharkhand, Uttarakhand and Chhatisgarh in 2001 and the recognition of Maithili in the eighth schedule of the Indian Constitution in 2004.

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
