Entangled Edens
"The skill with which [Slater] combines various levels and modalities of narrative, utilizing her personal experience as a colorful unifying thread, is truly remarkable."—Antonio Candido, author of Antonio Candido: On Literature and Society (Howard S.

A History of Mining in Latin America
For twenty-five years, Kendall Brown studied Potosí, Spanish America's greatest silver producer and perhaps the world's most famous mining district.

New World bullion stimulated the formation of the first world economy but at the same time it had profound consequences for labor, as mine operators and refiners resorted to extreme forms of coercion to secure workers. In many cases the environment also suffered devastating harm. All of this occurred in the name of wealth for individual entrepreneurs, companies, and the ruling states. Yet the question remains of how much economic development mining managed to produce in Latin America and what were its social and ecological consequences. Brown's focus on the legendary mines at Potosí and comparison of its operations to those of other mines in Latin America is a well-written and accessible study that is the first to span the colonial era to the present.
Televisão e narrativas digitais
“Televisão e narrativas digitais: práticas culturais e de consumo na contemporaneidade” aborda temas que vão da recepção das mídias aos processos produtivos. Num tempo em que as tecnologias expandem as possibilidades, refletir sobre representações, narrativas e consumo conectado torna-se emergente. O que os autores e as autoras problematizam nos trabalhos levam a uma tentativa de análise não somente com relação a configuração atual do que os artefatos tecnológicos podem proporcionar aos usuários, mas para os usos que os sujeitos fazem desses nas práticas cotidianas.
