Pol Tica En Am Rica Latina

Autonom as y Emancipaciones es un nuevo mapa de nuestra Am rica, es el mapa de "los de abajo," el cual nos ayuda a observar las fronteras pol ticas entre autonom a y hegemon a, entre las formas verticales y tradicionales de hacer pol tica del Estado y las formas horizontales que van generando los movimientos sociales a lo largo y ancho de este continente donde--dice el autor--"existe un potencial de lucha que reci n estamos comenzando a descifrar." Esta compilaci n de ensayos sobre los distintos territorios por donde pasan las nuevas pr cticas de emancipaci n; es un esfuerzo por construir un nuevo tipo de conocimiento que, como dice de Sousa, ilustre lo ausente y lo emergente en las nuevas formas de construcci n pol tica que se llevan a cabo desde las Villas Miseria en Chile y Argentina hasta la Selva Lacandona en Chiapas, pasando por las experiencias urbanas y rurales de Brasil, Ecuador, Per, Colombia y Bolivia.

This fascinating study pays tribute to the life and work of the Brazilian essayist, thinker and diplomat José G. Merquior, who died prematurely in 1991. Part I concentrates on Merquiorian thought itself and examines Merquior's own incisive review of the rebirth of the liberal idea. Part II ranges more widely: here, such distinguished contributors as John Hall, Ernest Gellner and Norberto Bobbio develop some of Merquior's favourite themes – liberalism as it relates to social cohesion, political stability, morality, republicanism and democracy, and the relativeness and scepticism that characterize postmodern thinking. The book's application to two regions of the world – to Merquior's own Latin America and to Central and Eastern Europe – is direct and obvious.

Se investiga la relación entre la producción teatral y la actividad política durante los sesentas o sixties, conjeturando las razones del fracaso y desarticulación de la izquierda política en la región, seguida por la instalación de regímenes dictatoriales atroces y la decepción subsiguiente. Se esgrime la tesis de una dimensión evangélica de la revolución, en la que el cristianismo filtra el discurso marxista limitando su potencia transformadora y afectando simultáneamente las prácticas políticas y las culturales. Se propone la teatralidad como política de la mirada. Los textos del Che Guevara se cotejan con los de Ignacio de Loyola y se estudia una teatralidad de la guerrilla que atraviesa los manifiestos y discusiones de los teatristas, desde la creación colectiva hasta el happening. Una poética perversa del sacrificio y del martirologio sostiene y limita las rebeldías artísticas durante esa etapa del capitalismo. Se debate la cuestión de la praxis teatral desde Stanislavski hasta Grotowski.

Global Feminist Autoethnographies bears witness to our displacements, disruptions, and distress as tenured faculty, faculty on temporary contracts, graduate students, and people connected to academia during COVID-19. The authors document their experiences arising within academia and beyond it, gathering narratives from across the globe—Australia, Canada, Ghana, Finland, India, Norway, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the United States along with transnational engagements with Bolivia, Iran, Nepal, and Taiwan. In an era where the older rules about work and family related to our survival, wellbeing, and dignity are rapidly being transformed, this book shows that distress and traumas are emerging and deepening across the divides within and between the global North and South, depending on the intersecting structures that have affected each of us. It documents our distress and trauma and how we have worked to lift each other up amidst severe precarities. A global co-written project, this book shows how we are moving to decolonize our scholarship. It will be of interest to an interdisciplinary array of scholars in the areas of intersectionality, gender, family, race, sexuality, migration, and global and transnational sociology.
