Luiz Carlos Maciel - Encontros
Luiz Carlos Maciel has been called the guru of Brazilian counterculture. His column Underground, published in Pasquim at the turn of the 1960s-70s, was a generational milestone, updating the thinking of Brazilian youth with the most compelling issues of the time. Maciel participated in practically all the cultural events of the period, from the new cinema to the alternative press, and tells his trajectory and ideas in the interviews gathered in this volume of the collection Encontros. "When the counterculture emerged, this libertarian perspective was very strong. The counterculture had no primer. Where is the Bible of the counterculture? Where is the "Communist Manifesto" of the counterculture? Where is the "Interpretation of Dreams" of the counterculture? It doesn't exist. The counterculture was a group in fusion. Without ideological or philosophical predetermination of any kind."

In the late 1960s, Brazilian artists forged a watershed cultural movement known as Tropicalia. Music inspired by that movement is today enjoying considerable attention at home and abroad. Few new listeners, however, make the connection between this music and the circumstances surrounding its creation, the most violent and repressive days of the military regime that governed Brazil from 1964 to 1985. With key manifestations in theater, cinema, visual arts, literature, and especially popular music, Tropicalia dynamically articulated the conflicts and aspirations of a generation of young, urban Brazilians. Focusing on a group of musicians from Bahia, an impoverished state in northeastern Brazil...
Neither Peace Nor Freedom
Patrick Iber tells the story of left-wing Latin American artists, writers, and scholars who worked as diplomats, advised rulers, opposed dictators, and even led nations during the Cold War. Ultimately, they could not break free from the era’s rigid binaries, and found little room to promote their social democratic ideals without compromising them.
