This book was released on 1981 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los filosofos latinoamericanos han reconocido desde siempre su comopromiso con la realidad, tal como lo hizo Esteban Echeverria en 1837, cuando confirmo como proposito del pensar filosofico la busqueda "de la verdad que resulte de los hechos de nuestra historia y del reconocimiento pleno de las costumbres y del espiritu de la nacion." Asi, Arturo Andres Roig examina el despuntar y el devenir de la filosofia de nuestras naciones y confronta los logros y los accidentes de la filosofia latinoamericana.
Book Synopsis Teoría crítica del derecho desde América Latina by : Antonio Carlos Wolkmer
Download or read book Teoría crítica del derecho desde América Latina written by Antonio Carlos Wolkmer and published by Ediciones AKAL. This book was released on 2019-06-03 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La crítica en la acepción que recoge este libro es un agente propulsor: trasgrede lo que se asume inmóvil para suscitar transformaciones; la emancipación del hombre, en el mejor de los casos. La presente obra es una invitación a desacralizar, a romper con la dogmática lógico-formal y a discutir el Derecho desde distintas perspectivas, a cuestionar el sitio que ocupan el Estado y la legalidad (como conceptos occidentales) frente a otras formas de organización y regulación social. La inteligencia es constitutivamente práxica, y la praxis es constitutivamente intelectiva, como se enuncia en el prólogo, y mantener la crítica como movimiento se vuelve una forma de confirmarlo. El compromiso pedagógico de esta obra, inscrita en la crítica jurídica alternativa y descolonial, es promover un espacio de cambios, de encuentro con ideas nucleares y categorías críticas para dar paso a un derecho insurgente que, sin perder la universalidad, sea producto de las luchas sociales y permita transformar la reflexión crítico-dialéctica en vivencia humanizadora. Sólo con un diálogo de esta naturaleza tendrán sitio las distintas voces que hoy buscan su independencia económica, política, étnica y cultural en todo el mundo.
Book Synopsis Imperialism and the Wider Atlantic by : Tania Gentic
Download or read book Imperialism and the Wider Atlantic written by Tania Gentic and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume broaden previous approaches to Atlantic literature and culture by comparatively studying the politics and textualities of Southern Europe, North America, and Latin America across languages, cultures, and periods. Historically grounded while offering new theoretical approaches, the volume encourages debate on whether the critical lens of imperialism often invoked to explain transatlantic studies may be challenged by the diagonal translinguistic relationships that comprise what the editors term "the wider Atlantic". The essays explore how instances of inverse coloniality, global networks of circulation, and linguistic conceptualizations of nation and identity question dominant structures of power from the nineteenth century to today.
Book Synopsis Strategic Occidentalism by : Ignacio M. Sanchez Prado
Download or read book Strategic Occidentalism written by Ignacio M. Sanchez Prado and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic Occidentalism examines the transformation, in both aesthetics and infrastructure, of Mexican fiction since the late 1970s. During this time a framework has emerged characterized by the corporatization of publishing, a frictional relationship between Mexican literature and global book markets, and the desire of Mexican writers to break from dominant models of national culture. In the course of this analysis, Ignacio M. Sánchez Prado engages with theories of world literature, proposing that “world literature” is a construction produced at various levels, including the national, that must be studied from its material conditions of production in specific sites. In particular, he argues that Mexican writers have engaged in a “strategic Occidentalism” in which their idiosyncratic connections with world literature have responded to dynamics different from those identified by world-systems or diffusionist theorists. Strategic Occidentalism identifies three scenes in which a cosmopolitan aesthetics in Mexican world literature has been produced: Sergio Pitol’s translation of Eastern European and marginal British modernist literature; the emergence of the Crack group as a polemic against the legacies of magical realism; and the challenges of writers like Carmen Boullosa, Cristina Rivera Garza, and Ana García Bergua to the roles traditionally assigned to Latin American writers in world literature.

Book Synopsis A Scholiast’s Quill by : Roberto Cantú
Download or read book A Scholiast’s Quill written by Roberto Cantú and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfonso Reyes (1889-1959) was the embodiment of the Latin American poet, essayist, and literary theorist during the first half of the twentieth century. With an astonishing intellectual curiosity and capacity for work, he thought and wrote about every important topic and major intellectual current that defined his beleaguered times. This collection recovers Reyes’ legacy from the standpoint of the twenty-first century, with essays written exclusively for this book by scholars from Colombia, Croatia, Cuba, France, Mexico, and the United States. They analyze Reyes’ poetry and essays from contrasting theoretical approaches and innovative readings of his major poetic works; his philosophical correspondence with leading European and Mexican writers; modernism in the Anglo-American and Latin American essay tradition; and, among other topics of interest, the idea of America and cosmopolitanism in his essays. The volume includes a full-length introduction, an interview with Latin American poet and essayist Octavio Armand, and English translations of Armand’s poems. The study is of significant value to scholars, teachers, students, and the general reader interested in a seminal writer who shaped the writing of poetry and the essay in Latin American letters during the first half of the twentieth century.

It also provides state-of-the-art information on new topics such as the interface between translation and humour on the one hand, and the translation of comics on the other. This Handbook is an indispensable resource for postgraduate students and researchers of translation studies.
Book Synopsis Mapping Spaces of Translation in Twentieth-Century Latin American Print Culture by : María Constanza Guzmán
Download or read book Mapping Spaces of Translation in Twentieth-Century Latin American Print Culture written by María Constanza Guzmán and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects on translation praxis in 20th century Latin American print culture, tracing the trajectory of linguistic heterogeneity in the region and illuminating collective efforts to counteract the use of translation as a colonial tool and affirm cultural production in Latin America. In investigating the interplay of translation and the Americas as a geopolitical site, Guzmán Martínez unpacks the complex tensions that arise in these “spaces of translation” as embodied in the output of influential publishing houses and periodicals during this time period, looking at translation as both a concept and a set of narrative practices. An exploration of these spaces not only allows for an in-depth analysis of the role of translation in these institutions themselves but also provides a lens through which to uncover linguistic plurality and hybridity past borders of seemingly monolingual ideologies. A concluding chapter looks ahead to the ways in which strategic and critical uses of translation can continue to build on these efforts and contribute toward decolonial narrative practices in translation and enhance cultural production in the Americas in the future. This book will be of particular interest to scholars in translation studies, Latin American studies, and comparative literature.

Book Synopsis Pensamiento político y ciencias sociales en América Latina. Un análisis en clave decolonial by : Aldo Miguel Olano Alor
Download or read book Pensamiento político y ciencias sociales en América Latina. Un análisis en clave decolonial written by Aldo Miguel Olano Alor and published by U. Externado de Colombia. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este es un libro sobre la colonialidad del saber en América Latina y en Perú. Abarca el período comprendido entre 1900-1980 y propone ubicarla, primero, en algunas formas de pensamiento social y político que se dieron en el país durante las cuatro primeras décadas del siglo pasado. Segundo, aquel tipo de colonialidad se hace presente en las disciplinas integrantes de las ciencias sociales, cuya inicial institucionalización se tuvo en aquel período, logrando eso sí un fuerte impulso a partir de 1946 con la fundación de las carreras profesionales y la intensa presencia de renovados programas de investigación. Pensamiento, teorías y disciplinas que el autor ha reunido para integrar la epistemología del occidentalismo por un conjunto de razones teóricas y metodológicas que serán explicadas en los distintos capítulos que integran esta obra.
Book Synopsis The Global South and Literature by : Russell West-Pavlov
Download or read book The Global South and Literature written by Russell West-Pavlov and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 555 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Global South' has largely supplanted the 'Third World' in discussions of development studies, postcolonial studies, world literature and comparative literature respectively. The concept registers a new set of relationships between nations of the once colonized world as their connections to nations of the North diminish in significance. Such relationships register particularly clearly in contemporary cultural theory and literary production. The Global South and Literature explores the historical, cultural and literary applications of the term for twenty-first-century flows of transnational cultural influence, tracing their manifestations across the Global Southern traditions of Africa, Asia and Latin America. This collection of interdisciplinary contributions examines the origins, development and applications of this emergent term, employed at the nexus of the critical social sciences and developments in literary humanities and cultural studies. This book will be a key resource for students, graduates and researchers working in the field of postcolonial studies and world literature.
Book Synopsis La teoría social en América Latina: problemas, tendencias y desafíos actuales by : Esteban Torres
Download or read book La teoría social en América Latina: problemas, tendencias y desafíos actuales written by Esteban Torres and published by Esteban Torres; Juan Pablo Gonnet. This book was released on 2016-01-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El siguiente libro colectivo recoge un conjunto de análisis críticos sobre la práctica teórica en las ciencias sociales de nuestro país y en menor medida de América Latina. El hecho de ocuparnos de la práctica teórica no es una elección casual. Tampoco remite a la problematización de un área de interés específico entre otras posibles. Por el contrario, constituye un objeto de revisión prioritario para disputar un escenario de investigación en el cual la construcción teórica, pese a su indiscutible centralidad, tiende a presentarse como una tarea prescindible.

Book Synopsis COVID-19 and Economic Development in Latin America by : Monika Meireles
Download or read book COVID-19 and Economic Development in Latin America written by Monika Meireles and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, just as with the Great Recession a decade earlier, has served to reinforce the fact that the world is hierarchically organized and the distribution of power between countries is distinctly asymmetric. Gathering multiple viewpoints of Latin American researchers, this book explores the impacts of the pandemic, including unequal access to vaccines and recovery finance, on economies in the region. The book is organised in three substantial sections: the first brings together conceptual work which rethinks the fundamental categories for critical thinking on the challenges for Latin American development in a post-pandemic scenario. In the second part, the chapters focus on studying the Latin American financial reconfiguration that is being driven by the pandemic, particularly through a comparison of the experience of countries of the world economy’s core and periphery. Finally, the third part evaluates the concrete experiences of different Latin American countries in this very specific historical moment, emphatically analyzing the economic policy responses that the governments are adopting to deal with the current sanitary emergency and its economic and social effects. From this, the book suggests keystone elements for the relaunch of development strategies in the region as it recovers from the pandemic. This book will be of particular interest to readers of critical or heterodox perspectives on the economics of the pandemic, Latin American development and emerging economies.

Book Synopsis Tradición y emancipación cultural en América Latina by : Jorge Turner Morales
Download or read book Tradición y emancipación cultural en América Latina written by Jorge Turner Morales and published by Siglo XXI. This book was released on 2005 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro contiene ensayos de enfoques antropológicos, filosóficos, sociales o políticos, para ampliar la mirada especialista sobre América Latina, también trabajos novedosos que se sitúan en la brecha entre las ciencias sociales y humanas, dejando muchos temas abiertos para su discusión. Este V y último tomo de la colección El debate latinoamericano se refiere a temas de cultura, tradición y emancipación en nuestro subcontinente, tras considerar que el pensamiento crítico debe ser la brújula que más contribuya a las correcciones de los falsos rumbos y a las verdaderas orientaciones para nuestro bienestar en tiempos en que el neoliberalismo ha facilitado una política imperial que quiere hacer tabla rasa con los principios del derecho internacional.
Book Synopsis La crítica en el margen by : Gandarilla Salgado, José Guadalupe
Download or read book La crítica en el margen written by Gandarilla Salgado, José Guadalupe and published by Ediciones AKAL. This book was released on 2018-10-22 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Para mantener la lógica de su sistema social y económico, la Modernidad alimenta una zona oscura, una sombra que hace posible la imposición de modelos, de instituciones y conceptos; es decir, reproduce la colonialidad. Desde diferentes puntos de análisis, los autores aquí reunidos exigen la recuperación de la pluralidad; hacen del margen es decir, de todo aquello que fue marginado, relegado un observatorio para cuestionar el autoproclamado «centro». En esta dirección, el conocimiento por el que se pronuncia el presente libro efectúa un deslinde con respecto del actual estado de las cosas; no sólo de ciertos planteamientos, sino de aquello que comprende lo social. Conviven en él visiones que dan vuelta a los mapas, que invierten la geografía del conocimiento para enfrentar los problemas desde el Sur y reposicionar, de manera urgente, la Independencia de Haití la primera en América, la négritude o el feminismo decolonial, entre otros, para suscitar una lectura distinta de la genealogía y del pensamiento latinoamericano.
