Book excerpt: Las élites culturales han sido actores importantes de la historia de América Latina. Procediendo como bisagras entre los centros que obraban como metrópolis culturales y las condiciones y tradiciones locales, desempeñaron un papel decisivo no sólo en el dominio de las ideas, del arte o de la literatura del subcontinente, sino también en el dominio de la historia política. Si se piensa en el siglo XIX, no podrían describirse adecuadamente ni el proceso de la independencia, ni el drama de nuestras guerras civiles, ni la construcción de los estados nacionales, sin referencia al punto de vista de los hombres de saber, a los letrados, idóneos en la cultura escrita y en el arte de discutir y argumentar. Sin embargo, aunque su labor y pensamiento son bastante conocidos, no contamos con una historia de la posición de los hombres de ideas en el espacio social, de sus asociaciones y sus formas de actividad, de las instituciones y los campos de la vida intelectual, de sus debates y de las relaciones entre "poder secular" y "poder espiritual", para utilizar la distinción introducida por Comte. Hay excelentes estudios sobre casos nacionales, pero no existía, hasta el presente, una historia general. 'Historia de los intelectuales en América Latina', la importante obra dirigida por Carlos Altamirano, propone este acercamiento en una perspectiva que está también atravesada por la génesis y la historia de las transformaciones del uso del concepto de "intelectual". Fruto de la colaboración de estudiosos de más de una generación y de diferentes disciplinas -desde la historia política a la historia de la literatura latinoamericana, pasando por la sociología de la cultura y la historia de las ideas-, 'Historia de los intelectuales en América Latina' busca abrir un campo, indicar interrogantes, plantear hipótesis que sirvan para orientar investigaciones futuras, tanto como hacer un aporte para la comprensión de nuestro tiempo.

Download or read book The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas written by Dr. Juan Pablo Scarfi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International law has played a crucial role in the construction of imperial projects. Yet within the growing field of studies about the history of international law and empire, scholars have seldom considered this complicit relationship in the Americas. The Hidden History of International Law in the Americas offers the first exploration of the deployment of international law for the legitimization of U.S. ascendancy as an informal empire in Latin America. This book explores the intellectual history of a distinctive idea of American international law in the Americas, focusing principally on the evolution of the American Institute of International Law (AIIL). This organization was created by U.S. and Chilean jurists James Brown Scott and Alejandro Alvarez in Washington D.C. for the construction, development, and codification of international law across the Americas. Juan Pablo Scarfi examines the debates sparked by the AIIL over American international law, intervention and non-intervention, Pan-Americanism, the codification of public and private international law and the nature and scope of the Monroe Doctrine, as well as the international legal thought of Scott, Alvarez, and a number of jurists, diplomats, politicians, and intellectuals from the Americas. Professor Scarfi argues that American international law, as advanced primarily by the AIIL, was driven by a U.S.-led imperial aspiration of civilizing Latin America through the promotion of the international rule of law. By providing a convincing critical account of the legal and historical foundations of the Inter-American System, this book will stimulate debate among international lawyers, IR scholars, political scientists, and intellectual historians.

Book excerpt: Since its creation in 1964, readers from all over the world have loved the comic Mafalda, primarily because of the sharp wit and rebellious nature of its title character—a four-year-old girl who is wise beyond her years. Through Mafalda, Argentine cartoonist Joaquín Salvador Lavado explores complex questions about class identity, modernization, and state violence. In Mafalda: A Social and Political History of Latin America's Global Comic—first published in Argentina in 2014 and appearing here in English for the first time—Isabella Cosse analyzes the comic's vast appeal across multiple generations. From Mafalda breaking the fourth wall to speak directly to readers to express her opposition to the 1966 Argentine coup, to Spanish students' protest signs bearing her face, to the comic's cult status in Korea, Cosse provides insights into the cartoon's production, circulation, and incorporation into social and political conversations. Analyzing how Mafalda reflects generational conflicts, gender, modernization, the Cold War, authoritarianism, neoliberalism, and much more, Cosse demonstrates the unexpected power of humor to shape revolution and resistance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thought-provoking and original collection looks at how intellectuals and their disciplines have been shaped, halted and advanced by the rise and fall of empires. It illuminates how ideas did not just reflect but also moulded global order and disorder by informing public policies and discourse. Ranging from early modern European empires to debates about recent American hegemony, Empire and the Social Sciences shows that world history cannot be separated from the empires that made it, and reveals the many ways in which social scientists constructed empires as we know them. Taking a truly global approach from China and Japan to modern America, the contributors collectively tackle a long durée of the modern world from the Enlightenment to the present day. Linking together specific moments of world history it also puts global history at the centre of a debate about globalization of the social sciences. It thus crosses and integrates several disciplines and offers graduate students, scholars and faculty an approach that intersects fields, crosses regions and maps a history of global social sciences.

Download or read book Centenary Subjects written by Shawn McDaniel and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Centenary Subjects examines the ideological debates and didactic exercises in subject formation during the centenary era of independence (the decade of the 1910s)—the peak of arielismo—and proposes a new reading of the arielista archive that brings into focus the racial anxieties, epistemological and spiritual fissures, and iconoclastic agendas that structure, and at times smother, the ethos of that era. Arielismo takes its name from José Enrique Rodó’s foundational essay Ariel (1900), a wide‑ranging gospel dedicated to Latin American youth that incited a cultural awakening under the banner of the spirit throughout the Americas at an ominous juncture—when the US co-opted the Cuban War of Independence in 1898, effectively rebranding it as the Spanish‑American War. Rodó’s optimistic message of transcendence as an antidote to the encroaching empire quickly became one of the most pervasive and malleable paradigms of regional empowerment, reverberating throughout a range of Latin Americanist projects in the twentieth and twenty‑first centuries. Centenary Subjects recovers a series of important but understudied essays penned by arielista writers, radicals, pedagogues, prophets, and politicians of diverse stripes in the early twentieth century, and analyzes how, under the auspices of the arielista platform, young people emerged as historical subjects invested with unprecedented cultural capital, increasing political power, and an urgent mandate to break with the past and transform the sociopolitical and cultural landscape of their countries. But their respective designs harbor racial, epistemological, aesthetic, and anarchistic strains that bring into sharper relief the conflicting signals that the centenary subject had to parse with respect to race, reason, and rupture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Cultural Property contains new contributions from scholars working at the cutting edge of cultural property studies, bringing together diverse academic and professional perspectives to develop a coherent overview of this field of enquiry. The global range of authors use international case studies to encourage a comparative understanding of how cultural property has emerged in different parts of the world and continues to frame vital issues of national sovereignty, the free market, international law, and cultural heritage. Sections explore how cultural property is scaled to the state and the market; cultural property as law; cultural property and cultural rights; and emerging forms of cultural property, from yoga to the national archive. By bringing together disciplinary perspectives from anthropology, archaeology, law, Indigenous studies, history, folklore studies, and policy, this volume facilitates fresh debate and broadens our understanding of this issue of growing importance. This comprehensive and coherent statement of cultural property issues will be of great interest to cultural sector professionals and policy makers, as well as students and academic researchers engaged with cultural property in a variety of disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the social sciences became entangled with the global Cold War. While duly recognizing the realities of nation states, national power, and national aspirations, the studies gathered here open up new lines of transnational investigation. Considering developments in a wide array of fields – anthropology, development studies, economics, education, political science, psychology, science studies, and sociology – that involved the movement of people, projects, funding, and ideas across diverse national contexts, this volume pushes scholars to rethink certain fundamental points about how we should understand – and thus how we should study – Cold War social science itself.

Download or read book Cooperation and Hegemony in US-Latin American Relations written by Andrew R. Tillman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume revisits the idea of the Western Hemisphere. First articulated by Arthur P. Whitaker in 1954 but with origins in the earlier work of Herbert E. Bolton, it is the idea that "the peoples of this Hemisphere stand in a special relationship to one another which sets them apart from the rest of the word" (Whitaker, 1954). For most scholars of US-Latin American relations, this is a curious concept. They often conceptualize US-Latin American relations through the prism of realism and interventionism. While this volume does not deny that the United States has often acted as an imperial power in Latin America, it is unique in that it challenges scholars to re-think their preconceived notions of inter-American relations and explores the possibility of a common international society for the Americas, especially in the realm of international relations. Unlike most volumes on US-Latin American relations, the book develops its argument in an interdisciplinary manner, bringing together different approaches from disciplines including international relations, global and diplomatic history, human rights studies, and cultural and intellectual history.

This book was released on 2022-01-28 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the cultural debate within the left during the Popular Unity government in Chile (1970-73), Chilean New Song and the Question of Culture in the Allende Government situates the discourses and artistic production linked to the Chilean New Song movement, in order to demonstrate that the musicians were part of the committed intelligentsia. Thus, they actively participated in the discussion and proposal of ways to integrate culture in the revolutionary process, playing an important political and cultural role. The analysis is mainly based on the government-friendly press and on records released between 1970 and 1973, verifying how the main trends observed in the cultural debate were expressed in the movement; the extent to which the positions defended by the musicians have been in tune with governmental purposes; and if they have in fact influenced the cultural policies debated and pursued by Popular Unity.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siguiendo el análisis de Foucault, el tiempo se percibe como algo rico, fecundo, la vida, la dialéctica, mientras que el espacio es tratado como algo muerto, fijo, estático e inmobil. En ese marco, la identidad occidental se ha constituido en Europa y Estados Unidos, donde prima el tiempo y la historia por delante del espacio. En contraste, América Latina ha seguido un proceso diametralmente opuesto. La ciudad, lo urbano, la división campo/ciudad, ha dominado el pensamiento latinoamericano desde la Conquista hasta nuestros días. Las grandes civilizaciones prehispánicas, conjugadas alrededor de lo urbano, tanto o más que en la Europa medieval, forzaron a los conquistadores a entender la conquista y la evangelización como un enorme proceso de urbanización. Hacia finales del siglo XVII ya se habían fundado casi todos los centros urbanos latinoamericanos en existencia hoy. Los conquistadores entendieron desde el principio que su conquista sería ante todo una conquista del espacio y una urbanización de la historia. El énfasis en el dominio del espacio tuvo como consecuencia la concepción de las culturas prehispánicas como culturas sin historia. El imperio se constituye a sí mismo como sujeto y transforma al colonizado en el espacio. La conquista de América coincidió con descubrimientos científicos en el momento que dieron forma a la colonización. Con la creación de las líneas de latitud, el Atlas y la nueva navegabilidad de los mares, Europa sigue un impulso de codificar y darle un orden matemático a la urbe, darle nuevos nombres erradicando los indígenas y controla el espacio desde un punto de vista superior y exterior a él. Following Foucault's analysis, time is perceived as something rich, fruitful, full of life, dialectic, while space is treated as something dead, fixed, static and immobile. Within this framework, Western identity has been established in Europe and the United States with time and history taking precedence over space. In contrast, Latin America has followed a diametrically opposed process. The city, the urban space, the country/city division, have dominated Latin American thought from the Conquest to the present day. The great pre-Hispanic civilizations, conjugated around the urban, just as much, if not more than medieval Europe. They forced the conquistadors to understand the conquest and evangelization as a huge urbanization process. Almost all of the Latin American urban centers in existence today, had already been founded by the end of the 17th century. The conquistadors understood from the beginning that theirs would be above all a conquest of space and an urbanization of history. The emphasis on the domination of space resulted in the conception of pre-Hispanic cultures as cultures without history. The empire constitutes itself as a subject and transforms the colonized in space. The conquest of America coincided with scientific discoveries at the time that shaped colonization. With the creation of the lines of latitude, the Atlas and the new navigability of the seas, Europe follows an impulse to codify and give a mathematical order to the city, give it new names by eradicating the native ones and controls space from a superior and external point of view.
