Transiciones Al Autoritarismo en El Siglo Xxi? Las Democracias Liminales
En un contexto americano y europeo de gobiernos con fuertes elementos autoritarios, este artículo retoma la pregunta por la clasificación de los regímenes políticos, los cambios entre autoritarismo y democracia, proponiendo un diálogo entre las conceptualizaciones clásicas de los estudios de la transición a la democracia con las teorías antropológicas acerca de las situaciones de liminalidad. La liminalidad en antropología se refiere al momento e…
Entrevista a Alejandro Grimson. Desafíos intelectuales para la imaginación política
To introduce the interview, Dr. Alina Peña comments: Alejandro Grimson's work stands out for its critical analysis of the processes of identity construction and border dynamics in Latin America. An anthropologist and academic, Grimson has developed relevant research works because they question essentialist notions of nation and culture. In Los límites de la cultura (Grimson, 2011), the author proposes an understanding of culture from its processe…
Development and validation of a simple and practical method for differentiating MS from other neuroinflammatory disorders based on lesion distribution on brain MRI
There is an unmet need to develop practical methods for differentiating multiple sclerosis (MS) from other neuroinflammatory disorders using standard brain MRI. To develop a practical approach for differentiating MS from neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and MOG antibody-associated disorder (MOGAD) with brain MRI, we first identified lesion locations in the brain that are suggestive of MS-associated demyelination ("MS Lesion Checklis…
Borderization and Public Security in Argentina
La antropología latinoamericana ante la violencia de la incomprensión
Cuando nuevos autoritarismos con claros rasgos fascistas ascienden, la antropología asume nuevos desafíos: reponer las heterogeneidades constitutivas, sus historias peculiares, sus puntos de vista y sus entramados relacionales. No se trata sólo de las alteridades radicales. También son las alteridades vividas e impensadas del día a día, donde la territorialidad, la etnicidad, la racialidad, el género y la clase operan de modos multidimensionales.…

Nación y racismo: El día 12 de octubre en la construcción de las sociedades latinoamericanas
On October 12, 1492, the ships chartered by the Crown of Castile under the command of Admiral Christopher Columbus landed in what would later be known as America. This date is so loaded with symbolism that it is part of the civic calendars of almost all the countries of the subcontinent, referring to the relationship between the "mother country" and the republics, its "daughters" in spite of the sacralized independences. We took advantage of this…
Social anthropology and transnational studies in Latin America: Introduction
The article analyzes the change of perspectives and narratives about national borders, the circulation of people and the political definitions of the limits of the National State in the social sciences since the fall of the Berlin Wall, in 1989, to the most recent outcomes of the international geopolitics. The place occupied by the transnational perspective of migration is questioned, inquiring its role in the formation of critical anthropologica…
Argentina’s Anti-Immigrant About-Face: Mauricio Macri’s conservative government rolls back one of the world’s most progressive migration laws
Raza y clase en los orígenes del peronismo: Argentina, 1945
En el marco de los debates sobre identificaciones raciales y de clase, este artículo analiza dos términos clave utilizados para designar de manera peyorativa a los seguidores de Perón: descamisados y cabecitas negras. La movilización del 17 de octubre de 1945 fue la mayor protesta obrera hasta ese entonces en Sudamérica. Abrió un debate sobre quiénes eran sus protagonistas y los antiperonistas los identificaron en términos de clase y de raza. Las…
Response to Arturo Escobar's ‘Latin America at a Crossroads: Alternative Modernizations, Post-Liberalism, or Post-Development
I think we may read Arturo's text in many different ways. The first option – which I prefer – is focused around an interrogation about the ways in which specific events and movements can change and

Desajustes entre nível de renda e hierarquias simbólicas em Comodoro Rivadavia: Sobre as Legitimidades Da Desigualdade Social
O artigo analisa uma situação em que trabalhadores fortemente estigmatizados têm níveis de renda mais altos do que aqueles que os estigmatizam. Desta forma, afirmamos que na cidade patagônica de Comodoro Rivadavia há um desajuste entre hierarquias simbólicas e nível econômico. Interessados nas desigualdades sociais e nos modos pelos quais elas se legitimam culturalmente, trabalhamos em conjunto com um antropólogo residente em Buenos Aires e uma a…
Culture and identity: Two Different Notions
A clear, precise conceptual distinction between 'culture' and 'identity' is an essential precondition for analyzing social processes. The anthropological concept of 'identity' has been built up over time and enriched by studies on interethnic relationships, ethnic borders and ethnicity. The objective of this essay is to add to an already well-defined concept of culture by incorporating decisive contributions from theories on the nation. Culture a…

Scholarly attention to the processes of globalization and the construction of regional blocs such as the European Union, NAFTA, and Mercosur has resulted in the relatively widespread belief that borders are in the process of disappearing. Yet, ethnographic studies on political borders have for several years been evincing various redefinitions of border areas comprising new conflicts and mechanisms for strengthening certain barriers between countr…
