Summary

In 2021, Mexico (as well as other countries born from the Spanish monarchy) will commemorate the consummation of their independence. Although that kind of commemoration is often used as a nationalistic and exceptionalist perspective, historians, especially since the imperial and Atlantic turns, tend to see them in a more global light (Age of Revolutions, Atlantic revolutions just to mention one framework). This symposium aims to gather in Toulouse (historically an important center of research on Latin America and the Iberian world) scholars who contribute to the understanding of the historical object "Mexico" (even from the conquest) at a variety of scales (from the local to the global), connections and perspectives (class, gender, race; intellectual, political, cultural, economic, environmental). We welcome contributions from history but also, if relevant, from other disciplines (eg anthropology, political science, sociology, literature, philosophy, visual studies etc). Forty-one lectures given by 38 national and international authors and researchers, in which 300 years of the history of Mexico are analyzed in depth, from the conquest of Mexico-Tenochtitlán in 1521, to the entry of the Trigarante Army and the consummation of Independence in 1821 and topics such as: types of government, how were the social groups, the church, the economy, the market, internal and foreign trade, as well as the scientific cultural riches of the period from 1521 to 1821. Lavishly illustrated throughout.
