LatinX and the neurologization of self
This paper explores the question of "LatinX" through debates in affective and critical neuroscience regarding the "neurologization of self" that many theorists claim we are experiencing today. This exploration takes Oliver Sacks' case study "The Autist's Artist" as its centerpiece and traces how the figure of "José" is narrativized as an autistic subject. The paper asks how we might understand "José" as a "LatinX" subject
The Nightgown

The point of agreeing or not agreeing to play along with the painting's morbid, sexual, and humorous demand may, in fa…
The life of the undead

How do we, the author asks, understand the theories of Latino/a health, disease, normality and pathology emerging out of epidemiological research on Latino/as and…
Dead Subjects
Dead Subjects is an impassioned call for scholars in critical race and ethnic studies to engage with Lacanian psychoanalytic theory. Antonio Viego argues that Lacanian theory has the potential to begin rectifying the deeply flawed way that ethnic and racialized subjects have been conceptualized in North America since the mid-twentieth century. Viego contends that the accounts of human subjectivity that dominate the humanities and social sciences …
