Introduction
The articles collected in this double issue were selected among the responses to an open call for papers circulated at the beginning of 2025, encouraging contributors to think from the vantage point of cultural studies about the novel affective energies, subjectivities, and symbolic forms the Latin American new right has ushered in, arguing that these cannot be left to sociology and political science alone.

Roberto Bolaño In Context
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.

Introduction
Colombia
On the Shores of Politics
This article explores discourses surrounding the modernisation of the state and the formation of national literature in nineteenth-century Colombia, examining the racism at the heart of both, particularly in their representation of Afro-Colombian inhabitants of the lower Magdalena River.

It does so in the ‘inter-messianic’ invocation of peace as something that has already arrived and that has yet to reveal its face. At the same …
Memory, Melancholia and Political Transition in Amuleto and Nocturno de Chile by Roberto Bolaño
This article explores the significance of melancholy in two novels by Roberto Bolaño: Amuleto (1999) and Nocturno de Chile (2000). These aim to give narrative form to memories surrounding the violent dismantling of the political left that occurred in the 1960s and 1970s in Latin America. Yet in their melancholic articulation, they do so in a way that both haunts narratives of political transition and questions the consensus regarding literature's…
