La larga marcha hacia una regulación de calidad en publicidad oficial en México

El propósito de este libro es someter a debate desde el concepto mismo de publicidad oficial, hasta los requisitos que debe tener una adecuada regulación de la misma para asegurar que no sea un dique para el ejercicio de los derechos de libertad de expresión y de información en un contexto de pluralidad de medios. El tema se aborda tanto desde una perspectiva comparada, como de nuestra historia reciente, considerando los distintos momentos por los que ha transitado la intención de regular la publicidad oficial. El libro está organizado alrededor de tres apartados: 1) la discusión sobre la normatividad que regula a la publicidad oficial, tomando en cuenta referencias internacionales, sobre todo latinoamericanas; 2) el desarrollo de la regulación sobre publicidad oficial en México, poniendo especial énfasis en el proceso reciente que derivó en la promulgación de una Ley General de Comunicación Social que fue cuestionada por no cumplir con los estándares internacionales y 3) una reflexión sobre el inadecuado desempeño de la publicidad oficial en México, así como sobre el papel de los medios de comunicación en el contexto actual.

Cannibal Translation

A bold comparative study illustrating the creative potential of translations that embrace mutuality and resist assimilation Cannibal translators digest, recombine, transform, and trouble their source materials. Isabel C. Gómez makes the case for this model of literary production by excavating a network of translation projects in Latin America that includes canonical writers of the twentieth century, such as Haroldo and Augusto de Campos, Rosario Castellanos, Clarice Lispector, José Emilio Pacheco, Octavio Paz, and Ángel Rama. Building on the avant-garde reclaiming of cannibalism as an Indigenous practice meant to honorably incorporate the other into the self, these authors took up Brazili...

Inverted Utopias

  • Categories: Art

In the twentieth century, avant-garde artists from Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean created extraordinary and highly innovative paintings, sculptures, assemblages, mixed-media works, and installations. This innovative book presents more than 250 works by some seventy of these artists (including Gego, Joaquin Torres-Garcia, Xul Solar, and Jose Clemente Orozco) and artists' groups, along with interpretive essays by leading authorities and newly translated manifestoes and other theoretical documents written by the artists. Together the images and texts showcase the astonishing artistic achievements of the Latin American avant-garde. The book focuses on two decisive periods: the return from Europe in the 1920s of Latin American avant-garde pioneers; and the expansion of avant-garde activities throughout Latin America after World War II as artists expressed their independence from developments in Europe and the United States. As the authors explain, during these periods Latin American art was fueled by the belief that artistic creations could present a form of utopia - an inversion of the original premise that drove the European avant-garde - and serve as a model for

The Postmodernism Debate in Latin America

Postmodernism may seem a particularly inappropriate term when used in conjunction with a region that is usually thought of as having only recently, and then unevenly, acceded to modernity. Yet in the last several years the concept has risen to the top of the agenda of cultural and political debate in Latin America. This collection explores the Latin American engagement with postmodernism, less to present a regional variant of the concept than to situate it in a transnational framework. Recognizing that postmodernism in Latin America can only inaccurately be thought of as having traveled from an advanced capitalist "center" to arrive at a still dependent neocolonial "periphery," the contribut...

  • Publisher: AK Press

The available material in English discussing Latin American anarchism tends to be fragmentary, country-specific, or focused on single individuals. This new translation of Ángel Cappelletti's wide-ranging, country-by-country historical overview of anarchism's social and political achievements in fourteen Latin American nations is the first book-length regional history ever published in English. With a foreword by the translator. Ángel J. Cappelletti (1927–1995) was an Argentinian philosopher who taught at Simon Bolivar University in Venezuela. He is the author of over forty works primarily investigating philosophy and anarchism. Gabriel Palmer-Fernandez is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Youngstown State University.
