Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A partir de los ejes centrales, memoria y violencia, el libro traza un recorrido por los textos literarios y testimoniales publicados por exmilitantes del movimiento armado socialista en Mexico, desde fines de la decada de los setenta hasta nuestros dias. Pese a la amplia produccion escrituraria y practicas de memoria, estas dificilmente han sido reconocidas en su doble estatuto politico y estetico. El libro analiza, la dinamica de formacion y disputas por la fijacion de una memoria emblematica, asi como las coyunturas politicas y marcos interpretativos que las atravesaron, abordando la literatura carcelaria, asi como los debates en torno a la rectificacion versus la afirmacion y continuidad de la lucha armada, la denuncia de la tortura, la reemergencia de la memoria en el marco de la alternancia partidista y las nuevas agencias como el testimonios de familiares de desaparecidos y de las mujeres que participaron de la lucha armada.

Book excerpt: This book explores how recent Colombian historical memories are informed by cultural diversity and how some of the country’s citizens remember the brutalities committed by the Army, guerrillas, and paramilitaries during the internal war (1980-2016). Its chapters delve into four case studies. The first highlights the selections of what not to remember and what not to represent at the National Museum of the country. The second focuses on the well-received memories at the same institution by examining a display made to commemorate the assassination of a demobilized guerrilla fighter. The third discusses how a rural marginal community decided to vividly remember the attacks they experienced by creating a display hall to aid in their collective and individual healing. Lastly, the fourth case study, also about a rural peripheric community, discusses their way of remembering, which emphasizes peasant oral traditions through a traveling venue. By bringing violence, memory, and museum studies together, this text contributes to our understanding of how social groups severely impacted by atrocities recreate and remember their violent experiences. By drawing on displays, newspapers, interviews, catalogs, and oral histories, Jimena Perry shows how museums and exhibitions in Colombia become politically active subjects in the acts of reflection and mourning, and how they foster new relationships between the state and society. This volume is of great use to students and scholars interested in Latin American and public history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission not only documented the political violence of the 1980s and 1990s but also gave Peruvians a unique opportunity to examine the causes and nature of that violence. In Art from a Fractured Past, scholars and artists expand on the commission's work, arguing for broadening the definition of the testimonial to include various forms of artistic production as documentary evidence. Their innovative focus on representation offers new and compelling perspectives on how Peruvians experienced those years and how they have attempted to come to terms with the memories and legacies of violence. Their findings about Peru offer insight into questions of art, memory, and truth that resonate throughout Latin America in the wake of "dirty wars" of the last half century. Exploring diverse works of art, including memorials, drawings, theater, film, songs, painted wooden retablos (three-dimensional boxes), and fiction, including an acclaimed graphic novel, the contributors show that art, not constrained by literal truth, can generate new opportunities for empathetic understanding and solidarity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro senala y examina el cambio de paradigma experimentado en los ultimos anos por el campo de los estudios de memoria: un giro interseccional y epistemologico que desplaza espacial, temporal e ideologicamente la reflexion inmediata (testimonial) y mediata (transgeneracional) de la simbolizacion retrospectiva de los procesos represivos ocurridos durante las dictaduras civico-militares latinoamericanas, proponiendo trabajar mas alla de la ecuacion victima-victimario-testigo. El campo se revigoriza gracias a la re significacion de la violencia no como un efecto sino como una fundacion, un fenomeno de caracter estructural asociado al colapso del estado democratico en la region, acompanado en varios casos de la vuelta al poder de las derechas mediante "golpes blandos" sostenidos por la narrativa del "sentido comun capitalista". Esta segunda fase neoliberal se materializa en la violencia sistemica sostenida en contra de comunidades y actores (raciales, etnicos, sexuales, de genero y de clase) que son desplazados, precarizados, perseguidos o diezmados por sus resistencias comunitarias al regimen economico que los marginaliza. Sus narrativas y practicas emancipadoras constituyen el foco de este libro y la base del giro epistemologico e interseccional en los estudios de memoria que el libro aborda.

This book was released on 2015-04-27 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping study of political murder in Latin America. This expansive history depicts Latin America’s pan-regional culture of political murder. Unlike typical studies of the region, which often focus on the issues or trends of individual countries, this work focuses thematically on the nature of political murder itself, comparing and contrasting its uses and practices throughout the region. W. John Green examines the entire system of political murder: the methods and justifications the perpetrators employ, the victims, and the consequences for Latin American societies. Green demonstrates that elite and state actors have been responsible for most political murders, assassinating the leaders of popular movements and other messengers of change. Latin American elites have also often targeted the potential audience for these messages through the region’s various “dirty wars.” In spite of regional differences, elites across the region have displayed considerable uniformity in justifying their use of murder, imagining themselves in a class war with democratic forces. While the United States has often been complicit in such violence, Green notes that this has not been universally true, with US support waxing and waning. A detailed appendix, exploring political murder country by country, provides an additional resource for readers. W. John Green is the Editor and Director of the Latin American News Digest and the author of Gaitanismo, Left Liberalism, and Popular Mobilization in Colombia.
