Qué será la interculturalidad
A los antropólogos se nos piden políticas para gestionar la multiculturalidad. Sin embargo, los conflictos interculturales aumentados por las migraciones masivas, la expansión mundial de las industrias comunicacionales, la mezcla de formas productivas y consumos locales, nacionales y globales cambiaron las condiciones de convivencia entre etnias, naciones, géneros y generaciones. Este artículo contribuye a reimaginar las tareas actuales de la ant…

A culture of informality
This article offers an ethnographic account of informality, showing the complicity between the formal sector and the informal economy. Taking the reader on a car journey of urban disorganisation and traffic jams in Mexico City, the analysis shows how informality has become part of an everyday social contract. It is argued that the diverse world of informal practices, working as a popular survival strategy, is also entrenched in the workings of fo…
Disposal and Reinvention: Citizenship in an Era of Electronic Capitalism
Ever since the expansion of video-politics, television canalises citizens' criticism and demands regarding political authorities, conceiving of citizens as spectators. Social networks magnify this type of involvement, promising horizontality and social cohesion. Political parties have become reduced to elites that distribute power and benefits among themselves, disengaging from voters, except during electoral periods. Our opinions and behaviours …

La antropología ante los narradores de la globalización
Gustavo Lins Ribeiro's text raises key questions to rethink the current situation of anthropology. His historical overview shows that few foundational features persevere because the world has mutated since the 19th century and the first half of the 20th. A past defining characteristic - 'understanding the structures of otherness' - is blurred when we recognize that anthropology can no longer be 'the cosmopolitics of the West', nor 'the celebratio…

How Digital Convergence is Changing Cultural Theory
Pierre Bourdieu's notion of cultural field loses its explanatory power when economic value dominates the symbolic and when institutions such as museums and publishers depend on market forces. This loss of autonomy is accentuated with digital convergence, which integrates texts and images, the factories that produce them and the habitus of readers, spectators, and Internet users. This process gives rise to new conceptual and political challenges, …

Remaking passports: Visual thought in the debate on multiculturalism
For the romantics, art is a production of the intuitive and solitary genius; in the same way, reception is defined as an act of unconditional contemplation, the empathy of an individual sensitive disposition which allows itself to be penetrated by the mysterious eloquence of the work. A national consciousness has existed, torn by doubts about our capacity to be moderns, but capable of integrating into the construction of repertoires of images the…

De que forma a esfera pública é reconstituída nesses circuitos comunicacionais? Esses meios contribuem pa…

He studies the approaches to the idea of culture in different sections of the dailies—cultural, economic, social—and how they relate to local, national, and global processes.

Latins or Americans: Narratives of the Border
This essay examines narratives of the Mexican-US border taken from urban politics, literature, art and popular culture in order to describe the relations between Latin American, US and Canadian “culture” as represented in the cultural imaginary of these respective societies. With reference to metaphor, such as that represented by M. Ramirez Erre's “Trojan Horse”—constructed on the border between Tijuana and San Diego—the essay argues that frontie…

Den iscenesatte folkelighed
Hvad er "det folkelige" og hvad er "folkekultur"? Néstor Garcia Canclini har i denne artikel sat sig for at dekonstruere begrebet "det folkelige" og beskrive den måde, forskellige grupper bruger og misbruger begrebet på. Han analyserer tre fremherskende idéer om folkelighed: folkloristernes romantiske idé om det oprindelige, der blev ødelagt af massekulturen, massemediernes popularitetsbegreb og endelig populisternes - både de højre- og venstreor…

The accomplishments and frustrations associated with each process are challenged, the author argues, by the modernity imposed by neoliberalism. The significance of this reformulation of the modernizing project is analyzed in terms of the constitutive, multi temporal heteroge…
