Book Synopsis Crítica de la razón andina by : Carlos Abreu Mendoza
Download or read book Crítica de la razón andina written by Carlos Abreu Mendoza and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde la decada de los sesenta hasta el presente, varios estudios han analizado las formaciones discursivas que conforman la razon latinoamericana. Los ensayos del presente volumen se limitan al espacio mas estrecho––aunque igualmente desafiante––de los Andes, una categoria que, aun hoy, estamos lejos de definir univocamente. Abarcando un marco temporal que va desde el desarrollo y la expansion de culturas prehispanicas como Chavin y Tiwanaku hasta el activismo contemporaneo de un ecuatoriano migrante en Nueva York que lucha por reclamar su condicion indigena, el volumen propone una genealogia de conceptos como "lo andino" y "andinismo" a traves de una mirada critica a su desarrollo historico y su potencialidad teorica. La introduccion y los cinco capitulos en ingles y espanol reflexionan sobre el estado de los estudios andinos a partir de una serie de operaciones criticas que invitan a problematizar las estrategias politicas que se esconden detras de toda proclamacion de un origen andino para la nacion; subrayar el continuo proceso de reconstruccion y regeneracion de la cosmopraxis andina desde la conquista; interpelar la centralidad del siglo XIX en la constitucion de "lo andino" como una eficaz herramienta para institucionalizar la cultura nacional; historizar la construccion del "andinismo" como una categoria clave para al estudio de los procesos culturales andinos; y, por ultimo, contextualizar la dinamicidad de la cultura andina desde su afianzamiento en espacios globales.

Book Synopsis Mirages of Transition by : Nils Jacobsen
Download or read book Mirages of Transition written by Nils Jacobsen and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study of the Peruvian altiplano, the vast high-altitude plains surrounding Lake Titicaca, combines economic and social analysis with cultural and institutional history. Nils Jacobsen challenges the prevailing view that the rural Andes underwent a successful transition to capitalism between the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He argues that although the political, economic, and administrative structures of colonialism were gradually dismantled by the region's advancing market economy, colonial modes of constructing power and social identity have lingered on even to this day. The result of painstaking research in remote rural archives, some of them now made inaccessible by the Shining Path, Mirages of Transition will become the definitive work on the Peruvian highlands.
Book Synopsis Revealing Rebellion in Abiayala by : Hannah Burdette
Download or read book Revealing Rebellion in Abiayala written by Hannah Burdette and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the rise of the Pan-Maya Movement in Guatemala and the Zapatista uprising in Mexico to the Water and Gas Wars in Bolivia and the Idle No More movement in Canada, the turn of the twenty-first century has witnessed a notable surge in Indigenous political action as well as an outpouring of texts produced by Native authors and poets. Throughout the Americas—Abiayala, or the “Land of Plenitude and Maturity” in the Guna language of Panama—Indigenous people are raising their voices and reclaiming the right to represent themselves in politics as well as in creative writing. Revealing Rebellion in Abiayala explores the intersections between Indigenous literature and social movements over the past thirty years through the lens of insurgent poetics. Author Hannah Burdette is interested in how Indigenous literature and social movements are intertwined and why these phenomena arise almost simultaneously in disparate contexts across the Americas. Literature constitutes a key weapon in political struggles as it provides a means to render subjugated knowledge visible and to envision alternatives to modernity and coloniality. The surge in Indigenous literature and social movements is arguably one of the most significant occurrences of the twenty-first century, and yet it remains understudied. Revealing Rebellion in Abiayala bridges that gap by using the concept of Abiayala as a powerful starting point for rethinking inter-American studies through the lens of Indigenous sovereignty.
Book Synopsis A Handbook of Economic Anthropology, Second Edition by : James G. Carrier
Download or read book A Handbook of Economic Anthropology, Second Edition written by James G. Carrier and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaim for the first edition: 'The volume is a remarkable contribution to economic anthropology and will no doubt be a fundamental tool for students, scholars, and experts in the sub-discipline.' – Mao Mollona, Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute 'This excellent overview would serve as an excellent text for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level classroom use. . . Because of the clarity, conciseness, and accessibility of the writing, the chapters in this volume likely will be often cited and recommended to those who want the alternative and frequently culturally comparative perspective on economic topics that anthropology provides. Highly recommended. All academic levels/libraries.' – K.F. Rambo, Choice The first edition of this unique Handbook was praised for its substantial and invaluable summary discussions of work by anthropologists on economic processes and issues, on the relationship between economic and non-economic areas of life and on the conceptual orientations that are important among economic anthropologists. This thoroughly revised edition brings those discussions up to date, and includes an important new section exploring ways that leading anthropologists have approached the current economic crisis. Its scope and accessibility make it useful both to those who are interested in a particular topic and to those who want to see the breadth and fruitfulness of an anthropological study of economy. This comprehensive Handbook will strongly appeal to undergraduate and post-graduate students in anthropology, economists interested in social and cultural dimensions of economic life, and alternative approaches to economic life, political economists, political scientists and historians.

Book Synopsis The Routledge Hispanic Studies Companion to Nineteenth-Century Latin America by : Agnes Lugo-Ortiz
Download or read book The Routledge Hispanic Studies Companion to Nineteenth-Century Latin America written by Agnes Lugo-Ortiz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-29 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Hispanic Studies Companion to Nineteenth-Century Latin America provides a unique, comprehensive, and critical overview of Latin American studies in the nineteenth century, including the major regions and subfields. The essays in this collection offer a complex, yet accessible transdisciplinary overview of the heterogeneous and asynchronous historical, political, and cultural processes that account for the becoming of Latin America in the nineteenth century—from Mexico and the Caribbean Basin to the Southern Cone. The thematic division of the book into six parts allows for a better understanding of the ways in which different themes are interrelated and affords readers the opportunity to draw their own connections among subfields. The volume assembles a robust sample of recent and innovative scholarship on the subject, reformulating from fresh perspectives commonly held views on the issues that characterized the era. Additionally, it provides an overarching analysis of the field and introduces cutting-edge concepts all within one expansive volume, opening the dialogue about topics that share common denominators and modeling how those topics can be approached from a variety of perspectives. The innovative volume will be of interest to students and scholars of Latin American studies and Spanish studies. Readers unfamiliar with the period will acquire a comprehensive view of its complexities, while specialists will discover new interpretations and archives.

Book Synopsis Zero-Point Hubris by : Santiago Castro-Gómez
Download or read book Zero-Point Hubris written by Santiago Castro-Gómez and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operating within the framework of postcolonial studies and decolonial theory, this important work starts from the assumption that the violence exercised by European colonialism was not only physical and economic, but also ‘epistemic’. Santiago Castro-Gómez argues that toward the end of the eighteenth century, this epistemic violence of the Spanish Empire assumed a specific form: zero-point hubris. The ‘many forms of knowing’ were integrated into a chronological hierarchy in which scientific-enlightened knowledge appears at the highest point on the cognitive scale, while all other epistemes are seen as constituting its past. Enlightened criollo thinkers did not hesitate to situate the Black, Indigenous, and mestizo peoples of New Granada in the lowest position on this cognitive scale. Castro-Gómez argues that in the colonial periphery of the Spanish Americas, Enlightenment constituted not only the position of epistemic distance separating science from all other knowledges, but also the position of ethnic distance separating the criollos from the ‘castes’. Epistemic violence—and not only physical violence—is thereby found at the very origin of Colombian nationality.

Book Synopsis The Darkening Nation by : Ignacio Aguiló
Download or read book The Darkening Nation written by Ignacio Aguiló and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2018-04-12 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the turn of the twenty-first century, Argentina was in the midst of its worst economic crisis in decades, the result of years of drastic neoliberal reforms. This book looks at the way ideas about race and nationhood were conveyed during this period of financial meltdown and national emergency, examining in particular how the neoliberal crisis led to the critical self-questioning of the dominant imaginary of Argentina as homogeneously white – allegedly the result of European immigration and the extinction of most indigenous and black people in the nation-building age. The Darkening Nation focuses on how the self-examination of racial and national identity triggered by this crisis was expressed in culture, through the analysis of literary texts, films, artworks and music styles. By considering a wide range of artistic and cultural products, and different forms of racial identity and difference (white, indigenous, Afro-descendant, immigrant and negro as it is understood in local contexts), this study constitutes a timely addition from a literary and cultural studies perspective to recent academic enquiry into race and nation in Argentina.
Book Synopsis Abiayalan Pluriverses by : Gloria Chacón
Download or read book Abiayalan Pluriverses written by Gloria Chacón and published by Amherst College Press. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abiayalan Pluriverses: Bridging Indigenous Studies and Hispanic Studies looks for pathways that better connect two often siloed disciplines. This edited collection brings together different disciplinary experiences and perspectives to this objective, weaving together researchers, artists, instructors, and authors who have found ways of bridging Indigenous and Hispanic studies through trans-Indigenous reading methods, intercultural dialogues, and reflections on translation and epistemology. Each chapter brings rich context that bears on some aspect of the Indigenous Americas and its crossroads with Hispanic studies, from Canada to Chile. Such a hemispheric and interdisciplinary approach offers innovative and significant means of challenging the coloniality of Hispanic studies.
