In April 2011 militant hate groups affiliated with Hungary's Neo-Nazi Jobbik party attempted to ethnically cleanse the northern Hungarian town of Gyöngyöspata of its Roma inhabitants. They were thwarted by the Good Friday evacuation of 267 Roma women and children by the Hungarian Red Cross and the ensuing international uproar which left the center-right Fidesz government little choice but to ban the very "uniformed criminals" it had allowed to terrorize Roma communities for over a year. Seeking to deflect criticism from itself, the Fidesz government accused American businessman, philanthropist and Red Cross volunteer, Richard Field, of "staging a mock evacuation" for the purpose of "harming Hungary's image abroad." This is Field's story told through articles he wrote for The Budapest Times, open letters to public officials, letters to editors, and speeches.

The history of Mexico is spoken in the voice of ordinary people. In rhymed verse and mariachi song, in letters of romance and whispered words in the cantina, the heart and soul of a nation is revealed in all its intimacy and authenticity. Mexico in Verse, edited by Stephen Neufeld and Michael Matthews, examines Mexican history through its poetry and music, the spoken and the written word. Focusing on modern Mexico, from 1840 to the 1980s, this volume examines the cultural venues in which people articulated their understanding of the social, political, and economic change they witnessed taking place during times of tremendous upheaval, such as the Mexican-American War, the Porfiriato, and the Mexican Revolution. The words of diverse peoples—people of the street, of the field, of the cantinas—reveal the development of the modern nation. Neufeld and Matthews have chosen sources so far unexplored by Mexicanist scholars in order to investigate the ways that individuals interpreted—whether resisting or reinforcing—official narratives about formative historical moments. The contributors offer new research that reveals how different social groups interpreted and understood the Mexican experience. The collected essays cover a wide range of topics: military life, railroad accidents, religious upheaval, children’s literature, alcohol consumption, and the 1985 earthquake. Each chapter provides a translated song or poem that encourages readers to participate in the interpretive practice of historical research and cultural scholarship. In this regard, Mexico in Verse serves both as a volume of collected essays and as a classroom-ready primary document reader.
