Feed provided by Project MUSE® Women and Chile at the Alamo: Feeding U.S. Colonial Mythology https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48805 An earlier version of this essay was presented at the Latin American Studies Association’s 2001 convention in Washington, DC.Of course, there are Spanish missions all over Texas, New Mexico, and California, and perhaps Taco Bell founder Glen Bell, himself a Californian, did not have the Alamo exclusively in mind as an architectural model. Likely not all consumers make a conscious connection between Taco Bell and the Alamo. I would argue, however, that, as the most recognizable mission in the United States—indeed, as something of a fetish in U.S. national symbolism—the Alamo will be evoked in the minds of many Americans viewing Taco Bell advertisements. The rhetoric of running for the border, images of male ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48812">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/140/image/coversmall Women and Chile at the Alamo: Feeding U.S. Colonial Mythology 2003-11-14 text/html en-US Women and Chile at the Alamo: Feeding U.S. Colonial Mythology 2003-11-14 2003 TWO Project MUSE® 46558 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 2003-11-14 (Un)inhabiting Exile: Franz Rosenzweig and Jewishness https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48807 Throughout this essay I will use with a certain breadth terms that, nevertheless, indicate differences. Judaism mainlyr efers to the connotation that Rosenzweig gives the term in The Star of Redemption, a sense that emphasizes the specificity of the Jews’ giving up of their land through the figure of Abraham. Judaism could be said to name, generically, a religious originality framed within a revolutionarycon ception of the book and of interpretation. By Jewishness I refer to a certain continuity in the diasporic journey, a continuity it owes to its special positioning in Western culture as a figure of “deep-rooted uprootedness,” or as a metaphor for a double perspective in the experience of exile (I will be more ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48812">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/140/image/coversmall (Un)inhabiting Exile: Franz Rosenzweig and Jewishness 2003-11-14 text/html en-US (Un)inhabiting Exile: Franz Rosenzweig and Jewishness 2003-11-14 2003 TWO Project MUSE® 54765 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 2003-11-14 Plights and Flights of Historical Reason within and against Pax Americana https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48808 It will take courage to learn to dance in the institutional graveyard of the “foreign” languages in the home of the brave. See Gregory Rodriguez 2002.For panoramic visions of changing geopolitical geographies, see Immanuel Waller-stein’s Geopolitics and Geoculture (1991). Wiarda includes zero references to the Yale professor.It might be interesting to highlight the neoconservative lineage built since the 1950s at the University of Chicago and Cornell by Leo Strauss, Allan Bloom, Francis Fukuyama, and Paul Wolfowitz, among others (Atlas 2003).See, for example, the institutional reading of Huntington and Fukuyama inside Reagan’s State Department, as described in Arrighi and Silver 1999, 1–36.

I am aware that this position is highly suspicious and unsatisfactory; nevertheless, this was not the aspect that interested me in his reasoning.Gramsci’s remarks on religion are particularly suggestive and can be found scattered throughout his Quaderni del carcere (1975). See also Ortiz 1980a and 1980b.It is exactly this aspect that the German thinker ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48812">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/140/image/coversmall Notes on Religion and Globalization 2003-11-14 text/html en-US Notes on Religion and Globalization 2003-11-14 2003 TWO Project MUSE® 42679 2026-05-19T00:00:00-05:00 2003-11-14 Coloniality of Power, Immigration, and the English-Spanish Asymmetry in the United States https://muse.jhu.edu/article/48812 This research was partially supported by a fellowship granted to the second author by the Spencer Foundation Research Group Fellowship Program, ASR #200100304.
