The main purpose of this paper is to revitalize the legacy of historian Rafael Altamira, a survivor from Spanish Nationalist State who left the country to live in exile at the end of the civil war. Throughout his life, he also resisted Franco's regime. The historian was targeted by Franco's officers, moved to America and established himself in Mexico as an expatriate agent of the resistance in the intellectual field. Because of that he had his works continually submitted to new publishing requirements, such as having passages suppressed in book translations and having books banned or revalidated by the censorship judgment. The aims of the present research are to identify the rules imposed by censorship apparatus and the way it functioned to ban or to allow the partial or total publication of those works. Thereby, we demonstrate the lasting surveillance on those works and their respective authors, editors and readers, subjected to an atmosphere of suspicion and guilt. By means of this study, it will be delineated the vicissitudes of a dictatorial regime which deprived the freedom of expression of intellectuals and which limited them to silence and self-repression. Also, it condemned others to be in exile as a way of cultural survival. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this paper is to reflect on the political function of the arbítrios, through a memorial written by Luis de Ribera, which deals with a topic related to the ecclesiastical government of Peru. The arbítrios were proposals addressed to the king for the solution of problems in several spheres of the government, especially financial matters. They had their heyday in Spain from the middle of the 16th century, and from the first decades of the 17th century we can observe an arbitrism centered on American issues, although to a lesser extent than the Castilian arbitrism. Ecclesiastical issues were of great importance in the Spanish territories in America, due to the fact that sovereignty over the new lands was justified by the evangelization of the natives. Ribera's memorial offered a solution to one of these issues, the rivalry between the religious orders and the secular clergy; from this we will consider the influence of these writings on political issues.

For Flusser, Auschwitz revealed "the potential utopia embedded in our culture. For the first time in our history we can feel that the utopia towards which we strive [...] is the extermination camp". And he concluded: "There can be no political paradise. Because political consciousness is unhappy, every consciousness is unhappy." This paper argues that his media theory intended to "project us beyond the [Western] project", which ended in Auschwitz. The utopian traces of his work come to light in his engagement with Brazil, in his informational theory, in his formulation of a positive "Heimatlosigkeit" and of "post-history". He was not a classic utopist, nor a Marxist, but someone engaged in the design of a new world free from fascism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The development of a Free Trade Area of the Americas gathered momentum at the Summit of the Americas held in Quebec City in April 2001. Brazil's role is critical to the success of the negotiations which could lead to a free trade area extending from Alaska to Terra do Fogo. How do US businessmen and businesswomen see Brazil as a major trading partner and what options do observers in the Northern hemisphere consider to be open to Brazil? This paper gives the author's views and is a picture of the existing situation in mid-May 2001. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
