Despojo sin fin: La reemergencia charrúa en Uruguay a la luz del colonialismo de pioneros
En la sociedad uruguaya, que se imagina como un país sin indios, el surgimiento de grupos activistas que se autoadscriben como indígenas (o de ascendencia indígena) ha provocado un amplio espectro de reacciones que van desde la burla hasta la ira. La administración estatal y algunos de los antropólogos más venerados (entre los cuales se encuentran Daniel Vidart y Renzo Pi Hugarte), así como el público en general, se muestran reacios a reconocer l…
Rethinking Indigenous and Collaborative Archaeologies
In this essay I will try to respond to Gnecco’s thoughtful criticism of Indigenous archaeology by reflecting on the ways in which the incorporation of indigenous peoples to the archaeological process might change our perceptions, and the production, of time – both the one produced by the discipline’s discourse and practices and the one that is experienced by human beings during the archaeological process itself, from the elaboration of the projec…
Endless dispossession: The Charrua re-emergence in Uruguay in the light of settler colonialism
In a country like Uruguay, that imagines itself as a ‘country without Indians’, the emergence of groups of activists who claim to be of indigenous descent has provoked a series of reactions that cover a wide spectrum that goes from mockery to wrath. The State and some of the most revered anthropologists (like Daniel Vidart and Renzo Pi Hugarte), as well as the general public, are reluctant to recognize their legitimacy. This has serious legal con…

Ethnic Reemergence in Uruguay: The Return of the Charrúa in the Light of Settler Colonialism Studies
Verdesio discusses the shortcomings of a central category in the theoretical repertoire of the decolonial option: “coloniality of power.” By focusing on Uruguay as a case study, a country where the colonial legacies typical of settler colonialism are still alive, Verdesio shows the limited explanatory power of categories like coloniality of power, that were born out of the study of other forms of colonialism. The negative, sometimes passionate re…

Un fantasma recorre el Uruguay: La reemergencia charrúa en un “país sin indios”
Este trabajo estudia la reemergencia de la etnicidad charrúa en Uruguay, un país que se ha imaginado a sí mismo, por lo menos desde fines del siglo XIX, como carente de indígenas. En el marco de un clima relativamente reciente de descolonización y de avance de las agendas políticas y sociales indígenas, los militantes de los grupos reemergentes presentan un desafío importante a las narrativas de la nación predominantes en Uruguay.

Buenos Aires: Perspectives on the City and Cultural Production
Since the nineteenth century, Buenos Aires, the largest city of Spanish-speaking South America, has been one of the continent's major cultural centers. David Foster analyzes a standard aspect of Argentine culture, the tango, but with attention to gender issues; he looks at theater in terms of its interpretation of Argentine social life; the dirty realism of Enrique Medina provides a focus for marginal, subaltern, and suppressed sectors of the urb…

Colonialism Past and Present: Reading and Writing about Colonial Latin America Today
This collection of essays offers alternative readings of historical and literary texts produced during Latin America's colonial period. By considering the political and ideological implications of the texts' interpretation yesterday and today, it attempts to "decolonize" the field of Latin American studies and promote an ethical, interdisciplinary practice that does not falsify or appropriate knowledge produced by both the colonial subjects of th…

The Long Road from Guadalupe to Televisa
This long overdue translation of serge gruzinski's 1990 book is a welcome addition to the author's corpus in English. It is, besides, an important companion to The Conquest of Mexico in that it supplements some of the aspects of the process of Westernization that took place during colonial times to which the aforementioned book did not pay special attention. One of those neglected aspects is the role played by the image throughout the colonial pe…
