Tiempos liminales
Tiempos liminales. Las humanidades de cara a la revuelta de octubre 2019 y el proceso constituyente es un libro que reúne los trabajos de investigadoras e investigadores posdoctorales de la Facultad de Humanidades, que hicieron eco de un llamado, o más bien una pregunta: ¿cómo conectar nuestras inquietudes válidamente “científicas” con la generación de un conocimiento pertinente y que tenga impacto en las reflexiones sobre el presente? Esta pregunta asume como principio que el conocimiento no puede quedar encerrado en las paredes de las universidades, debe salir a la esfera de lo público y, en conjunto con ello, ser accesible, incidente, performático sobre las realidades que hab...
Poetas chilenos jóvenes del siglo XXI
Este libro estudia las nuevas voces y el vigor de la poesía chilena actual. Los autores seleccionados, nacidos entre los años setenta y noventa, se incluyen, según se demuestra en este análisis, dentro de dos «generaciones» de poetas (2000-2001 y 2014). A la primera pertenecen, entre otros, los «Novísimos» Héctor Hernández Montecinos, Paula Ilabaca, Pablo Paredes y Diego Ramírez; y a la segunda, los poetas de la antología Halo, como Maximiliano Andrade, Fernanda Martínez Varela o Roberto Ibáñez Ricóuz. Estos se imponen en el escenario poético chileno; sin embargo, se benefician de pocos estudios críticos.

Brechas en el ecosistema del libro: gasto y política pública en Chile.
La concentración económica y la toma de decisiones se opone a la democratización de la lectura y el libro, con ello a la bibliodiversidad, y esta oposición está ocurriendo en Chile y es lo que este estudio busca revelar.
Wild Things
In Wild Things Jack Halberstam offers an alternative history of sexuality by tracing the ways in which wildness has been associated with queerness and queer bodies throughout the twentieth century. Halberstam theorizes the wild as an unbounded and unpredictable space that offers sources of opposition to modernity's orderly impulses. Wildness illuminates the normative taxonomies of sexuality against which radical queer practice and politics operate. Throughout, Halberstam engages with a wide variety of texts, practices, and cultural imaginaries—from zombies, falconry, and M. NourbeSe Philip's Zong! to Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are and the career of Irish anticolonial revolutionary Roger Casement—to demonstrate how wildness provides the means to know and to be in ways that transgress Euro-American notions of the modern liberal subject. With Wild Things, Halberstam opens new possibilities for queer theory and for wild thinking more broadly.
