Synopsis

Since Luis González y González published his seminal book People on tenterhooks in the College of Mexico in 1968, the so-called current of microhistory, historia matria or historia regional, has developed in our country in an exponential way. A new look and a new historiographical stance, very different from the one cultivated from the center, embarked on its own paths. Luis González taught us in his book The Craft of History that it is well worth carrying out research that is limited to a small territorial space trying to delve into a long period of time; documentary supports are fundamental, but it is necessary to resort to other types of sources, even oral ones, always making a critique of them.

In this order of ideas, the Autonomous University of Aguascalientes has been holding the Regional History Seminar since 2006. For its XV edition (September 28 and 29, 2023), there was a copious participation of researchers from different institutions in the country and even abroad, which motivated the publication of a book that would bring together the best works, those that with their pertinent adaptations test diverse historiographical methodologies.

Returning to these concerns, this volume aims to make available to the reading public and the academic community in general a series of recently produced texts in the historical discipline and to continue the debate on regional history. Although they do not do so consciously, all of them seek to break with the excessively capital-like character –that is, from the center. These are works carried out by historians who seek to reorient the gaze, from the regional perspective, with themes that represent different regions and states of the republic, in limited geographical spaces.

The result of the above is the present work, which is made up of 31 chapters grouped into five sections, which obey both chronological and thematic considerations. The first section entitled "New Spanish Era" is made up of five chapters. The second part or block is dedicated to the "Nineteenth Century. Political and economic dynamics", and is made up of six works that refer to regions of Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Puebla, Jalisco and Michoacán. " Nineteenth Century. Education, culture and society" is the third block and is comprised of six chapters. The fourth part is entitled "Twentieth century. Cristero War, social movements and freemasonry". The fifth and last section is called "Twentieth Century. Society, heritage and culture", and like the previous one, it is made up of seven texts. All the chapters that comprise this volume resort to different explanatory frameworks, use regional history as a tool, and discover new veins of research.

Thanks to regional history, there is less and less historiographical centralization and, little by little, it contributes to the formation of a more inclusive national history, taking into account particular visions from other contexts, regardless of the territorial dimensions and the cohesion of tiny groups. In short, the debate is still open and it is necessary to continue dialogue, discussion and confronting our ideas in order to understand the historical processes from the regions of Mexico. It is neither possible nor desirable to stop.
