Anthrohistory: Unsettling Knowledge, Questioning Discipline
Stretching back to the 1950s, interdisciplinary work between anthropology and history has taken diverse expressions. Yet it has developed with more coherence since the 1980s, largely in response to the declining promise of global modernity and the rise of poststructuralism and deconstructionism. Through a critical and contemporary engagement with this wave of scholarship, this volume challenges readers to think of work at the crossroads of anthro…

Latin American postcolonial studies and global decolonization
Given the curiously rapid rise to prominence of “postcolonial studies” as an academic field in Western metropolitan centers since the late 1980s, it is to be expected that its further development would involve efforts, like this one, to take stock of its regional expressions. Yet, while the rubric “Latin American postcolonial studies” suggests the existence of a regional body of knowledge under that name, in reality it points to a problem: there …

Dismembering and Remembering the Nation: The Semantics of Political Violence in Venezuela
Although political violence has played a central part in the formation of nations, its historical constitution and its role in representing nations havereceived scant attention. All too frequently the explanation of violence is equated with the identification of its causes, its form is accounted for by its function, and its function is seen in instrumental terms; violence is reduced to a practical tool used by opposing social actors in pursuit of…

Reproducing dependency: Auto industry policy and petrodollar circulation in Venezuela
Development policy is analyzed by liberal models in terms of bargaining transactions between interest-maximizing actors and by the dependency perspective in terms of the internalized requirements of worldwide capital accumulation. Both approaches assume the working of capitalist rationality in dependent nations. In contrast, a focus on productive relations, class alliances, and political coalitions reveals the constraints on developmental policie…
