Book excerpt: El proposito del texto es abrir un espacio desde latinoamerica especificamente desde la region andina sobre la posibilidad de repensar y reconstruir los estudios culturales como espacios de encuentro politico, critico y de conocimientos diversos. Un espacio de encuentro entre disciplinas y proyectos intelectuale, politicos y eticos que provienen de distintos momentos historicos y de diferentes lugares epistemologicos que tiene como objetivo confrontar el empobrecimiento del pensamiento impulsado por las divisiones disciplinarias, epistemologicas, etc., y la fragmentacion sociopolitica que cada vez más hace que la intervencion civica y el cambio social aparezca como proyectos de fuerzas divididas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From his first fifteen years in Chile, to his nine years in Mexico City from 1968 to 1977, to the quarter of a century he lived and worked in the Blanes-Barcelona area on the Costa Brava in Spain through his death in 2003, Roberto Bolaño developed into an astonishingly diverse, prolific writer. He is one of the most consequential and widely read of his generation in any language. Increasingly recognized not only in Latin America, but as a major figure in World Literature, Bolaño is an essential writer for the 21st century world. This volume provides a comprehensive mapping of the pivotal contexts, events, stages, and influences shaping Bolaño's writing. As the wide-ranging investigations of this volume's 30 distinguished scholars show, Bolaño's influence and impact will shape literary cultures worldwide for years to come.

Download or read book Globalization and the Decolonial Option written by Walter D. Mignolo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book in English profiling the work of a research collective that evolved around the notion of "coloniality", understood as the hidden agenda and the darker side of modernity and whose members are based in South America and the United States. The project called for an understanding of modernity not from modernity itself but from its darker side, coloniality, and proposes the de-colonization of knowledge as an epistemological restitution with political and ethical implications. Epistemic decolonization, or de-coloniality, becomes the horizon to imagine and act toward global futures in which the notion of a political enemy is replaced by intercultural communication and towards an-other rationality that puts life first and that places institutions at its service, rather than the other way around. The volume is profoundly inter- and trans-disciplinary, with authors writing from many intellectual, transdisciplinary, and institutional spaces. This book was published as a special issue of Cultural Studies.

Download or read book Liquid Borders written by Mabel Moraña and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-14 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liquid Borders provides a timely and critical analysis of the large-scale migration of people across borders, which has sent shockwaves through the global world order in recent years. In this book, internationally recognized scholars and activists from a variety of fields analyze key issues related to diasporic movements, displacements, exiles, "illegal" migrants, border crossings, deportations, maritime ventures, and the militarization of borders from political, economic, and cultural perspectives. Ambitious in scope, with cases stretching from the Mediterranean to Australia, the US/Mexico border, Venezuela, and deterritorialized sectors in Colombia and Central America, the various contributions are unified around the notion of freedom of movement, and the recognition of the need to think differently about ideas of citizenship and sovereignty around the world. Liquid Borders will be of interest to policy makers, and to researchers across the humanities, sociology, area studies, politics, international relations, geography, and of course migration and border studies.

Download or read book The Latin American Short Story at its Limits written by Lucy Bell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Latin American short story has often been viewed in terms of its relation to orality, tradition and myth. But this desire to celebrate the difference of Latin American culture unwittingly contributes to its exoticization, failing to do justice to its richness, complexity and contemporaneity. By re-reading and re-viewing the short stories of Juan Rulfo, Julio Cortazar and Augusto Monterroso, Bell reveals the hybridity of this genre. It is at once rooted in traditional narrative and fragmented by modern experience; its residual qualities are revived through emergent forms. Crucially, its oral and mythical characteristics are compounded with the formal traits of modern, emerging media: photography, cinema, telephony, journalism, and cartoon art.

Download or read book Vernacular Latin Americanisms written by Fernando Degiovanni and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Vernacular Latin Americanisms, Fernando Degiovanni offers a long-view perspective on the intense debates that shaped Latin American studies and still inform their function in the globalized and neoliberal university of today. By doing so he provides a reevaluation of a field whose epistemological and political status has obsessed its participants up until the present. The book focuses on the emergence of Latin Americanism as a field of critical debate and scholarly inquiry between the 1890s and the 1960s. Drawing on contemporary theory, intellectual history, and extensive archival research, Degiovanni explores in particular how the discourse and realities of war and capitalism have left an indelible mark on the formation of disciplinary perspectives on Latin American cultures in both the United States and Latin America. Questioning the premise that Latin Americanism as a discipline comes out of the tradition of continental identity developed by prominent intellectuals such as José Martí, José E. Rodó or José Vasconcelos, Degiovanni proposes that the scholars who established the discipline did not set out to defend Latin America as a place of uncontaminated spiritual values opposed to a utilitarian and materialist United States. Their mission was entirely different, even the opposite: giving a place to culture in the consolidation of alternative models of regional economic cooperation at moments of international armed conflict. For scholars theorizing Latin Americanism in market terms, this meant questioning nativist and cosmopolitan narratives about identity; it also meant abandoning any Bolivarian project of continental unity or of socialist internationalism.

Download or read book The Sage Handbook of Global Sociology written by Gurminder K. Bhambra and published by SAGE Publications Limited. This book was released on 2023-11-29 with total page 739 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SAGE Handbook of Global Sociology addresses the ‘social’, its various expressions globally, and the ways in which such understandings enable us to understand and account for global structures and processes. It demonstrates the vitality of thought from around the world by connecting theories and traditions, including reflections on European colonization, to build shared, rather than universal, understandings. Across 36 chapters, the Handbook offers a series of perspectives and cases from different locations, enabling the reader better to understand the particularities of specific contexts and how they are connected to global movements and structures. By moving beyond standard accounts of sociology and social theory, this Handbook offers both valuable insight into and scholarly contribution to the field of global sociology.

Download or read book Language, Image and Power in Luso-Hispanic Cultural Studies written by Susan Larson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the history, evolution, and future of Luso-Hispanic Cultural Studies as a discipline, a pedagogical tool, and a set of working practices by bringing together a diverse group of renowned specialists to examine how the field has grown out of and radically reconsidered some of the basic premises of British Cultural Studies since the 1950s to address the many cultures of the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking world. The chapters in this volume address How Cultural Studies is being practiced in the increasingly virtual mediascapes of the twenty-first century What happens to basic critical assumptions about culture and power after they have passed through the filter of Post-Colonial and Decolonial Studies of the Luso-Hispanic world How we understand the role of culture in light of recent experiences with radical demographic shifts, populism and civil unrest within Latin America, Iberian and the Latino U.S How new ways of practising Luso-Hispanic Cultural Studies have worked their way into our pedagogy and the structure of the curriculum in the age of the increasingly privatized neoliberal university Providing keen insight and reflection on these questions, this volume is an essential read for scholars and students of Visual and Film Studies, Latin American and Iberian Studies, Luso-Brazilian Studies, Language and Culture Pedagogy, Global Studies, and for anyone interested in Cultural Studies across the Luso-Hispanic world.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este libro se ha querido trazar una especie de mapa, donde hay centro pero no estrictamente no hay periferia. Ha concebido el problema de la identidad como el centro del pensamiento latinoamericano hacia el 2000 pero, por cierto, ello no significa, ¿cómo podría serlo?, que el de la modernización sea periférico. Este mapa busca ubicar los lugares de reflexión en donde se dan cita distintas tendencias, donde se entrecruzan los caminos. No existe aquí una periferia radical pero si una gradación de importancia. Interesa saber cuáles son los temas más relevantes y cuáles no tanto, cuáles son los sitios que han sido más visitados por los pensadores. ¿Cuáles las relaciones que articulan unos lugares de reflexión con otros? ¿Cuáles son los subtemas que ha desarrollado cada escuela? ¿Cuáles los problemas que se plantea cada grupo de trabajo? ¿Cuáles son las redes más vitales?

This book was released on 2001 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Este libro reúne dieciséis ensayos preparados por los miembros del Grupo de Trabajo "Cultura y Transformaciones Sociales en Tiempos de Globalización". Es el segundo libro sobre el mismo tema resultante de las actividades del Grupo; no obstante, uno y otro volumen constituyen colecciones independientes entre sí. Los artículos contribuyen a teorizar con vocación de intervención acerca de algunas transformaciones sociales en tiempos de globalización desde perspectivas que ponen de relieve la importancia y significación de los aspectos simbólicos de las prácticas de los actores sociales. Se ocupan de problemas relacionados con las políticas neoliberales y los papeles jugados por las llamadas industrias culturales en los imaginarios sociales y las dinámicas sociales contemporáneas de varios países; el desafío de las músicas "mulatas" a la modernidad eurocéntrica; los desafíos que según los casos han enfrentado o enfrentan el movimiento feminista y las reivindicaciones de género en contextos políticos particulares; la construcción social de imaginarios y sistemas de representaciones alternativos a los de los discursos sociales dominantes y su importancia política; la construcción de discursos sociales, políticas y prácticas racistas y las impugnaciones a las mismas por parte de diversos actores sociales; las relaciones interétnicas y su importancia en las dinámicas internas y en las políticas del Banco Mundial; las redefiniciones de "lo público" y "lo político" a través de los usos de Internet por ciudadanos y organizaciones sociales; las fronteras como escenarios de conflictos de intereses y disputas identitarias y la fertilidad de su estudio para diversos procesos socioculturales contemporáneos; discusiones conceptuales en torno a la idea de políticas culturales en el marco de los procesos de globalización contemporáneos; las relaciones entre actores sociales globales y locales en la producción de representaciones sociales políticamente significativas."

Download or read book Literary Translation and Cultural Mediators in 'Peripheral' Cultures written by Diana Roig-Sanz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets the grounds for a new approach exploring cultural mediators as key figures in literary and cultural history. It proposes an innovative conceptual and methodological understanding of the figure of the cultural mediator, defined as a cultural actor active across linguistic, cultural and geographical borders, occupying strategic positions within large networks and being the carrier of cultural transfer. Many studies on translation and cultural mediation privileged the major metropolis of Paris, London, and New York as centres of cultural production and translation. However, other cities and megacities that are not global centres of culture also feature vibrant translation scenes. This book abandons the focus on ‘innovative’ centres and ‘imitative’ peripheries and follows processes of cultural exchange as they develop. Thus, it analyses the role of cultural mediators as customs officers or smugglers (or both in different proportions) in so-called ‘peripheral’ cultures and offers insights into an under-analysed body of actors and institutions promoting intercultural transfer in often multilingual and less studied venues such as Trieste, Tel Aviv, Buenos Aires, Lima, Lahore, or Cape Town.
