The Art of Transition, Latin American Culture and Neoliberal Crisis
The Art of Transition addresses the problems defined by writers and artists during the postdictatorship years in Argentina and Chile, years in which both countries aggressively adopted neoliberal market-driven economies. Delving into the conflicting efforts of intellectuals to name and speak to what is real, Francine Masiello interprets the culture of this period as an art of transition, referring to both the political transition to democracy and…
When I Look into the Mirror and See You: Women, Terror, and Resistance
Randall, feminist author/biographer of Latin American revolutionary women, documents the extraordinary stories of Nora Miselem Rivera and Maria Suarez Toro, 'disappeared' by the Honduran military in 1982, and released. They are an eye-opening exception to the tragic numbers of permanently 'disappeared' Latin Americans. The book breaks the silences surrounding this event: first, the silences around Honduras's largely unexplored counterinsurgent pa…

Focusing on the latter half of the twentieth century, it examines five different arenas of action and debate: political institutions, workplaces, social movements, revolutions, and feminisms.

Carlos Fuentes, Mexico, and Modernity
This study of the work of the Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes argues that there is a fundamental paradox at the heart of Fuentes's vision of Mexico and in his role as novelist and critic in putting forth that vision. This paradox hinges on the tension between national identity and modernity. A significant internal conflict, van Delden contends, emerges in Fuentes's work from his attempt to stake out two different positions for himself, as experimen…

Between Two Waters: Narratives of Transculturation in Latin America
Expanding upon existing studies of transculturation, Silvia Spitta shows how Latin American cultures radically transformed, displaced, and subverted Spanish and later European and U.S. cultural impositions. She theorizes transculturation as the complex process of adjustment and re-creation - cultural, literary, linguistic, and personal - that allows for new configurations to emerge from the clash of cultures and colonial and neocolonial appropria…
