The Other Side of the Popular: Neoliberalism and Subalternity in Latin America

Autorentext
Gareth Williams is Assistant Professor of Spanish at Wesleyan University.

Klappentext
"A serious study on the cultural challenges brought about by postmodern culture in Latin America is in order and largely overdue. In that sense, "The Other Side of the Popular" makes an invaluable contribution to the challenge of thinking about the present configuration of culture in the region. This book fills a gap in the area of Latin American cultural studies and it does so with serious scholarship, brilliance, and intellectual commitment."--Horacio Legras, Georgetown University

Zusammenfassung
Focusing on the close relationship between complex cultural shifts and the development of the neoliberal nation-state, this title argues that the modern Latin American nation was built upon the idea of 'the people', a citizenry with common interests transcending demographic and cultural differences.
