Human Rights Movement and Discourse.
This book accounts for the process of emergence and constitution of the human rights movement and discourse during the last military dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983). Central to this account is the contention that the movement’s emergence and constitution should not be understood as a necessary or as a natural response to the atrocities carried out by the last military regime, but instead as the result of a contingent process of political articulation and as a response which could have failed in its constitution and success.Thus, the appearance of the human rights movement and discourse in the country can only be understood in its full complexity if attention is given to this very process of popular mobilisation and political articulation that took place during 1976-1982.
The Politics of Postmemory
This volume examines recent examples of Argentine literature, film, theatre and visual art from the children of the disappeared. By exploring their creative narration of childhood memories and the controversial use of parody, humour and fantasy, Maguire considers how this post-dictatorship generation are increasingly looking towards the past in order to disrupt the politics of the present. More broadly, this interdisciplinary study also scrutinizes the relevance of postmemory in a Latin American context, arguing that the politics of local Argentine memory practices must be taken actively into account if such a theoretical framework is to remain a productive and appropriate analytical lens. The Politics of Postmemory thus engages critically with theories of cultural memory in the Argentine, Latin American and global contexts, resulting in a timely and innovative text that will be of significant interest to students and scholars in the fields of, among others, cultural studies, film studies, critical theory and trauma studies.
Affect, Gender and Sexuality in Latin America
This book emphasizes the significance of affects, feelings and emotions in how we think about politics, gender and sexuality in Latin America. Considering the complex and even contradictory social processes that the region is experiencing today, many Latin American authors are turning to affect to find a key to understand our present situation, to revisit our history, and to imagine new possibilities for the future. This tendency has shown such a specificity and sometimes departure from northern productions that it compels us to focus more deeply on its own arguments, methods, and critical contributions. This volume features essays that explore the particularities of Latin American ways of thinking about affect and how they can shed new light into our understanding of, gender, sexuality and politics.
Escritos K
Este libro es una respuesta al proceso político que comenzó en el año 2003 con la presidencia de Néstor Kirchner y a la sorpresa que este proceso generó en gran parte del espacio académico argentino. Partícipes de este espacio y de esta conmoción, y ante la emergencia de un nuevo encuentro entre las ciencias sociales y la política, estas páginas son el resultado de un ejercicio colectivo de pensamiento nucleado en torno al “Programa de Estudios en Teoría Política” radicado en el Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre la Cultura y la Sociedad (CIECS) de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba y el Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas. De este modo, las varias contribuciones de esta obra, apelando a diferentes recursos y adoptando diversos estilos, se abocan a pensar la política actual sin objetivarla, sin mirarla desde afuera o desde arriba. Al contrario, van a su encuentro para pensar con ella y para ella, en yuxtaposición, articuladamente, dejándose afectar.

Descentrando el populismo
Pensar y discutir «la cuestión populista» hoy se asemeja al eterno trabajo de Sísifo: cargar la roca de reflexión del populismo una y otra vez, frente a la pendiente inalcanzable de los lugares comunes. Como la de Sísifo, la nuestra es una labor —a todas luces— interminable. Por ello, este libro no pretende saldar o cerrar el debate, sino alivianar un poco la roca de reflexión; más que descifrar la naturaleza del populismo, nos proponemos pensarlo como una categoría analítica operativa y productiva para el estudio de procesos histórico-políticos particulares tales como el peronismo argentino y el gaitanismo colombiano. Y para estos fines, este libro colectivo recoge y ofrece ...
