What did “Discovery” mean for Indigenous Peoples?
Read: Chasteen, Chapter 2 (17 – 29, 38 – 53)
Charles Chasteen, Born in Blood and Fire: A Concise History of Latin America (W. W. Norton & Company; fifth edition, 2024)
Leon-Portilla, The Broken Spears, Chapter 8, 9, AND 15 see chapters attached.. Having trouble downloading chapter 15… will add shortly

Do: Encounter or Conquest ?
“Encounter” & Conquest
Scholars have debated whether the meeting of Europeans and indigenous groups in what came to be known as “The Americas,” was an encounter (implying an equal exchange of knowledge, goods, and–unfortunately–pathogens) or a brutal conquest that completely vanquished indigenous peoples. Is this even a fair question?
The conquest/encounter of/in what we now call Latin America was a lengthy and complex process that differed from place to place and time to time. While the fall of Tenochtitlan, signaling the end of the Aztec empire, took a mere two years, European/Western presence didn’t come to parts of the Amazon rainforest until mid twentieth century. Even during the 1500s (and during the siege of Tenochtitlan), diseases often preceded the arrival of the conquistadors.
Moreover, the history of conquest has been told–and often continues to be told–from a Eurocentric perspective, painting the deeds of conquistadors like Hernan Cortez as heroic while leaving out the voices of the vanquished. You have two different assigned readings: one a textbook or what historians call a secondary source (Chasteen), the other Miguel Leon-Portilla’s Broken Spears – a gathering of primary sources.
For this forum, explore and explain how these sources are different. How do the Aztec/Mexica sources tell the story of the conquest? What do they include that the European-focused “history of the winners” often leave out?
Here you can think of the following questions:
1) How are the Spaniards portrayed in each source?
2) What do the Aztec/Mexica sources say about disease? Why is the importance of European diseases often left out of traditional European histories of the conquest?
3) What do we learn about the importance of cultural differences?

I’ll upload PDFs of the readings for this question. I need plenty of external ones as well. For an essay of this length, I would require 30 as a minimum realistically.
But 1 or 2 references to those themes should suffice. I also can use the readings I’ve attached but in 2 or 3 paragraphs, while I can reference those readings, the paragraphs should focus on and use other references that you can find as the main argument in those paragraphs. That to say, I can’t rely too heavily on the readings on the reading list.
I usually make references to anthropology or sociology in my writing so it would be really great if you can incorporate that. You don’t have to reference every reading I have provided. Only reference them if they are relevent to your arguments. And there should be at least 4 references in there to social movements around the topic of the essay question. My degree requires Harvard referencing, done thoroughly. I’ll also attach the powerpoint for this essay question to give you an idea of what themes the essay would like you to reference. I’ve also attached examples of essays I’ve written before for different modules hoping they will give you an idea of how I write and structure things typically. The module is called ‘The political economy of social movements’ if that’s any help at all.
What is the relationship between People and Places?
Prompt for Essay #2: Theme: People and Places 1500 words
What is the relationship between People and Places? Using class material to answer this question, give us your own unique perspective with an argument. For your second paper, you can incorporate and use materials from the first half if you want to BUT you must draw on post-midterm materials, but show you read and followed lectures AFTER the midterms.
Cite from these two articles:
Read: Timothy August. “Introduction, The Refugee aesthetic: reimagining Southeast Asian America (Philadelphia, Temple University Press, 2020), pp. 1-24.
Search online and Read: Ayako Sahara. 2012. “Trans-Pacific Racisms: Development of Japan’s ‘Honorary White’ Racial Identity. PhD Dissertation, p. 201-261.

GLOBAL STUDIES ASSIGNMENT
“Answer the following questions (at least 2 paragraphs per answer). Each question covers one of the chapters we have studied in class.”
Q1. (Historical Globalization). History affects not only nation-states and cultures but also individuals and families. Make a list of two key historical events or trends that have shaped your family’s history. How did your family’s experience of these events shape who you are today? How do they define what you may want for your future and for the future of your family? Then ask one family member or loved one what item(s) would be on his or her list.
Q2. (Economic Globalization). Lapavitsas and colleagues (2012) suggest that acceptance of austerity principles and neoliberal recommendations on the part of many countries in the eurozone has resulted in measurable temporary fixes but long-term chaos as well. Choose one country—Iceland, Greece, Portugal, or Spain. Identify one austerity principle they were asked to follow. Then, using a newspaper database such as The New York Times Index, search for economic stories about that country and identify whether the austerity measures taken are addressed in the article and what the principle followed was. Can you identify the ideological stance of the author regarding these activities?
Q3. (Political Globalization). “How does culture impact our understanding of human rights? Are certain human rights universal?”
Organize a list of author insights for each of your paper’s sources by re-creati
Organize a list of author insights for each of your paper’s sources by re-creating the table on page 247 of the Repko and Szostak text. The left column should list the discipline while the right column should list direct quotes and paraphrases from each source including citations in APA format. Full references should be provided after the table in the correct APA format. You should have at least 5 sources listed and 3 different disciplines represented. Disciplines shouldn’t be too closely associated (psychology and social psychology are too closely associated to be listed separately). All quotes and paraphrases must also have an in-text citation like the examples from Table 9.2 to receive full credit. Quotes or paraphrases without correct citations or references will lose points. You may use the same sources from workshop 2 or new sources, but these are meant to be sources you will use in your final paper. Thus, the purpose of this workshop is to 1) help you prepare important quotes and content that you’ll cite in your paper, and 2) help you prepare your list of references in the correct APA format. Do not use blogs or other popular sources for your workshops or paper unless you’ve been given clearance to do so based on your topic/discipline.

Part 1
Please answer one of the following:
This week we are asked on the syllabus to watch a film on YouTube. It’s entitled Terror in Mumbai HBO Documentary of 26th of November 2008. The URL is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQTwYA27O14&list=PLsZKLu2Ah7lTHes3d-fcBXb_rT1fa0G-W. Then write a short commentary on the lesson for the study of global terrorism that you might draw from this excellent but upsetting video.
What did you think about the Indian government overhearing the conversations and exchanges?
What did you think of the handler in Karachi telling the young man to “go out and meet Allah,” that is, to get killed?
What did you think about the perceptions of the terrorist Mohammed Kasab?
Were the local police inept? The national anti-terror squad?
Consider the Holocaust, perhaps the lowest point ever reached any country considered by the world to be civilized. Watch the brief video assigned this week. It’s at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g42AvLG1s1E&t=2s. The title is “Context. R13.” This film is of a hearing in 1946 being held in Kyiv, Ukraine, then under the Soviet Union. The witness is named Dina Pronicheva.
What would you have done in an analogous situation at the ravine? Why did most Europeans not rise up in righteous indignation at this outrageous manifestation of racism on their continent? Why did Hitler have so many willing executioners, as the title of a book has it (Hitler’s Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust Paperback – January 28, 1997)?
During the past century, state terrorism has led to far more deaths than other forms of terrorism. Does it appear to you that racial and ethnic bigotry is a universal phenomenon, or does it simply reappear frequently over time?
