Music, Race, and Nation
Long a favorite on dance floors in Latin America, the porro, cumbia, and vallenato styles that make up Colombia's música tropical are now enjoying international success. How did this music—which has its roots in a black, marginal region of the country—manage, from the 1940s onward, to become so popular in a nation that had prided itself on its white heritage? Peter Wade explores the history of música tropical, analyzing its rise in the context of the development of the broadcast media, rapid urbanization, and regional struggles for power. Using archival sources and oral histories, Wade shows how big band renditions of cumbia and porro in the 1940s and 1950s suggested both old traditions and new liberties, especially for women, speaking to a deeply rooted image of black music as sensuous. Recently, nostalgic, "whitened" versions of música tropical have gained popularity as part of government-sponsored multiculturalism. Wade's fresh look at the way music transforms and is transformed by ideologies of race, nation, sexuality, tradition, and modernity is the first book-length study of Colombian popular music.
Educación y transformaciones: condiciones sociales y culturales de profesionales en Colombia (1980-2019)
De acuerdo con Boaventura de Sousa Santos, el paradigma de la modernidad converge y se reduce al desarrollo capitalista, y sus sociedades viven en una contradicción entre la emancipación por la igualdad, la integración social y los procesos de desigualdad y exclusión producidos por dicho desarrollo; la presente investigación desarrolla esta idea magistralmente. Es así que, en la presente entrega, se articulan imaginarios y realidades macrosociales, a fin de precisar el rol de la educación en las transformaciones sociales, culturales y económicas de profesionales en Colombia durante los últimos cuarenta años. El valor de esta obra trasciende al reconocimiento de las diferencias y desigualdades y ahonda en la ejemplificación de aquellos factores que las reproducen y las perpetúan. Así mismo, se expone cómo la educación puede contribuir o no a legitimar dichos factores.
