Sino‐Mexican Encounters Before the ‘Diplomatic Opening’: Exhibition Diplomacy and Grassroots Friendship in the 1960s

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract During the 1960s, Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) embraced Chinese overtures for a commercial opening as consistent with its anti‐imperialist posture, thereby foreshadowing the diplomatic opening to China in 1972. Yet this professed ideological pluralism was eclipsed by an underlying allegiance to the United States' anti ...

Evaluation of the Response of Posttensioned Steel Frames with Energy Dissipators Using Equivalent Single‐Degree‐of‐Freedom Systems

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The hysteretic energy (EH) dissipated in posttensioned steel frames (PTSF) with hysteretic dampers is calculated by using equivalent single‐degree‐of‐freedom systems (ESDOFS), where the nonlinearity of both the steel bars (beam and columns) and the connections of the structural frame is separately considered.

Humanism at the Council of Constance. Diego de Anaya, Classical Manuscripts and Education in Salamanca

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 469-488, June 2026.
Abstract Due to their prolonged and multicultural nature, councils functioned historically as hubs for the exchange of ideas, discourse, diplomacy and rhetoric, reflecting broader cultural trends. In the Middle Ages, no international forums were comparable to ecumenical councils, where diverse and influential groups from various regions convened to ...

The Discolouration of Human Teeth from Archaeological Contexts: Elemental Analysis of a Black Tooth from a Roman Cranium Recovered from the River Witham, Lincoln, UK

open access: yesJournal of Anthropology, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
A human cranium was recovered from the River Witham, Lincoln, UK, at Stamp End Lock during a police operation in 2002. Although extensive trauma was noted, the skull was not of forensic interest since radiocarbon dating revealed that the individual had lived during the Roman occupation of Lincoln, almost 2,000 years ago.

Reduction of Maximum and Residual Drifts on Posttensioned Steel Frames with Semirigid Connections

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The aim of this paper is to study the seismic performance of self‐centering moment‐resisting steel frames with posttensioned connections taking into account nonlinear material behavior, for better understanding of the advantages of this type of structural system.

Nothing but the Truth, take two: fighting for the reader in the Tlatelolco 1968 discourse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The hypothesis put forward in this project is that there are two mechanisms of creating a collective memory of the event: one is hegemonic (dominated by state discourses and, potentially, academic studies of the shooting), and the other is posthegemonic (

Mexico's Dirty War: A Reassessment

open access: yesBulletin of Latin American Research, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 211-224, June 2024.
Recent scholarship has found that Mexico's dirty war was rooted in existing, but also limited, violent practices established during the 1940s and 1950s. During the 1960s, these limits began to disappear. But it was not until the early 1970s when the state had sufficient capacity to launch counterinsurgency tactics throughout the nation.
