Latin American Political Thought
Author: Ivan Marquez
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 9781138021808
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Throughout Latin American history, the most significant kind of Latin American political thought and practice has been one that creates interrelated experiences of awareness, selfhood, identity, and community. These experiences are transformative experiences of individual and collective subjectivity and agency that help create a new world. In this book, Marquez argues that these transformative experiences create a distinctive Latin American approach to political thought that differs from the more abstract and analytical approach generally favored in the West. He competently helps dispel the myth that Latin American politics and political theory are simply underdeveloped derivatives of Western European and North American models. Instead, Latin American politics and political theory enable us to identify and connect seemingly divergent Latin American phenomena as all being part of politics, and to understand how Latin American political ideas and ideals are played out through different but interrelated processes. Marquez begins by using the problematic of liberation in Latin American political life, and then moves on to explore prophetic/strong/performative discourses.These include colonialism and modernity, liberation theology, philosophy, and pedagogy, dependency theory, guerrilla revolution and socialist utopia, Latin American feminist movements, post-Cold War political thought and practice, and indigenism and ethnic-political movements. He concludes by summing up Latin American thought s distinctive features, speculates about its prospects, and suggests its contributions to our understanding of political theory in general. At a time when there are very few books in print in English that tackle this topic, this essential resource raises important and new questions regarding many different facets of political thought and ideology in Latin America, but also points out the commonalities between different elements of Latin American political praxis."

Unequal Encounters
Author: Katherine Hoyt
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1793622531
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
This volume presents a selection of the most compelling political writings from early colonial Latin America that address the themes of conquest, colonialism, and enslavement. It will be invaluable for students and scholars of Latin American political thought and other fields in the social sciences and humanities. Katherine Hoyt prepared extensive introductory material that introduces readers to each of the writers, contextualizing their ideas and the controversies surrounding them. The anthology centers the voices of Indigenous peoples, whose writings constitute six of the fifteen chapters while also including women’s, African, and Jewish perspectives. Included among the writings are the foundation narrative of the Kaqchiquel Maya and an example of “mirror of princes” literature in which Inca writer Guamán Poma advises the King of Spain on how to better govern Peru. Spanish priests Bartolomé de Las Casas and Alonso de la Vera Cruz make contributions to the philosophical writings of the School of Salamanca on natural law as they relate to the peoples of the Americas. Other writers protest the inhumanity of the trade in enslaved Africans and the Inquisition. A volume such as this one brings greater nuance to our understanding of the continent's past, helping us to envision a more inclusive future.

Ideas and Ideologies in Twentieth-Century Latin America
Author: Leslie Bethell
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521468336
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
The Cambridge History of Latin America is a large scale, collaborative, multi-volume history of Latin America during the five centuries from the first contacts between Europeans and the native peoples of the Americas in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries to the present. Ideas and Ideologies in Twentieth-Century Latin America brings together chapters from Volumes IV, VI, and IX of The Cambridge History to provide in a single volume the economic, social and political ideologies of Latin America since 1870. This, it is hoped, will be useful for both teachers and students of Latin American history and of contemporary Latin America. Each chapter is accompanied by a bibliographical essay.

The Politics of Political Science
Author: Paulo Ravecca
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351110535
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
In this thought-provoking book, Paulo Ravecca presents a series of interlocking studies on the politics of political science in the Americas. Focusing mainly on the cases of Chile and Uruguay, Ravecca employs different strands of critical theory to challenge the mainstream narrative about the development of the discipline in the region, emphasizing its ideological aspects and demonstrating how the discipline itself has been shaped by power relations. Ravecca metaphorically charts the (non-linear) transit from “cold” to “warm” to “hot” intellectual temperatures to illustrate his—alternative—narrative. Beginning with a detailed quantitative study of three regional academic journals, moving to the analysis of the role of subjectivity (and political trauma) in academia and its discourse in relation to the dictatorships in Chile and Uruguay, and arriving finally at an intimate meditation on the experience of being a queer scholar in the Latin American academy of the 21st century, Ravecca guides his readers through differing explorations, languages, and methods. The Politics of Political Science: Re-Writing Latin American Experiences offers an essential reflection on both the relationship between knowledges and politics and the political and ethical role of the scholar today, demonstrating how the study of the politics of knowledge deepens our understanding of the politics of our times.
