"Two centuries of political motivated migrations rendered Mexico City as a place of asylum. This book tells the conditions in which, especially at two important moments -the rise of fascism in Spain and of military dictatorship in South America- Spanish, Jews, Poles, French, Argentinean, Chileans, Uruguayans, Guatemalans, had to migrate to Mexico City. In doing so, many of these groups transformed Mexican culture in such different fields as food, architecture, literature, science, and humanities. From the Lebanese constructions to the Japanese peanut, this book candidly explores through a fluid narrative, what the great tragedies of entire nations was to some and how they found in Mexico City a place to keep existing and to express their culture"--Verso cover English.
