The Comintern and the Global South: Global Designs/Local Encounters studies the relations and productive tensions between the Third International, intellectual histories of racial justice and anti-imperialism, as well as other forms of internationalism. Building on extant institutional histories of the Third International, it moves in new directions by focusing on the points of intersection – often conflictual and short-lived – with anti-imperialist, anti-racist, and nationalist organizing, making the Third International a site of encounter between a global political project and more local and regional contexts. Due to the broad range of geographic and linguistic expertise of the contributors, this book traces routes of exchange that are often elided in existing studies of the Third International. The chapters address how actors from Global South contexts shaped key debates on, for example, the role of Black, Indigenous, and migrant labor, the "Islamic question," and the "peasant question," which challenged Bolshevik epistemological frameworks. All such "questions" involved political subjectivities that the Comintern tried to reductively frame within a global revolution driven by Moscow, resulting in the Comintern’s ultimate disintegration. Nevertheless, this juncture between the Comintern’s global designs and its local encounters left a significant legacy that would later be reconfigured in mid-century anticolonial movements.

This groundbreaking volume addresses the enslavement and experiences of Black Africans in Spain and the Spanish Caribbean, particularly La Española (or Hispaniola) and Puerto Rico, two of the earliest colonies. Spanning nearly four hundred years and rooted in extensive archival research, Transatlantic Bondage sheds light on a number of relatively underexamined topics in these locales, including the development and application of slavery laws, disobedience and its consequences, migration, gender, family, lifestyle, and community building among the free Black population and white allies. In bringing together new and recent work by leading scholars, including two essays translated into English here for the first time, the book is also a call for further study of slavery in the Spanish Caribbean and its impact on the region.

Cultural Heritage Management and Indigenous People in the North of Colombia explores indigenous people's struggle for territorial autonomy in an aggressive political environment and the tensions between heritage tourism and Indigenous rights. South American cases where local communities, especially Indigenous groups, are opposed to infrastructure projects, are little known. This book lays out the results of more than a decade of research in which the resettlement of a pre-Columbian village has been documented. It highlights the difficulty of establishing the link between archaeological sites and objects, and Indigenous people due to legal restrictions. From a decolonial framework, the archaeology of Pueblito Chairama (Teykú) is explored, and the village stands as a model to understand the broader picture of the relationship between Indigenous people and political and economic forces in South America. The book will be of interest to researchers in Archaeology, Anthropology, Heritage and Indigenous Studies who wish to understand the particularities of South American repatriation cases and Indigenous archaeology in the region.

Translator’s Note “Perhaps Schopenhauer was right: I am all other men, any man is all men, Shakespeare is in some manner the miserable John Vincent Moon.” By opening his debut novel with these lines borrowed from Borges, Venezuelan author Luis Mora-Ballesteros foretells the central concern of his literary project: representing the universal in the particular. Here, the particular in question is the writer’s own Táchira State, in the rural borderland that straddles Venezuela and Colombia. In its portrayal of this place and its people Mora’s work exemplifies the defining themes of the twenty-first century: migration, assimilation, and the creation of new collective identities. Diptych is a term borrowed from visual art that refers to a symmetrical composition laid out on two panels side by side; Diptych of the Border is likewise symmetrically composed. It weaves together stories of migrant families who for decades have fled endemic violence in Colombia to settle in an overlooked region of Venezuela, forming a hybrid identity unique to the area. Later in the novel, in the 2010s, we meet migrants escaping Venezuela’s current economic disaster, moving in the other direction to form a new diasporic community in Colombia. Diptych attempts to show how such collective identities are constructed. In the following excerpt from the novel’s opening pages, we see a mosaic of images: new surroundings that provoke a sense of difference (“there’s no sea here…”), snapshots of the violence that drives people away (“the march of balaclavas and rifles…”), the conditions on the ranches and sugar plantations where some will end up as migrant workers, and countless small details that lend the text an authentic sense of place. The narrative moves loosely through space and time; events usually hinge around a shifting, expansive present tense. We meet a character and are promptly told what will happen to them months or years in the future; later in the novel we encounter them at another time and in changed circumstances, without entirely knowing what happened in between. This nonlinear temporality is characteristic of Mora’s writing and suggestive of how trauma flattens time and distorts memory. The central plot of the novel concerns a journalist, Juan Ángel, who has traveled to the borderland to write a story on a mysterious guerilla leader. We learn that he attempted to write a kind of crónica, or literary journalistic piece, about the region, before giving up and focusing on a straightforward feature story. It’s revealed that many sections of the novel, including this excerpt, are part of the failed crónica. With this narrative framing device, Mora creates another layer of symmetry in his diptych: the style continually oscillates between free-flowing prose-poetry (the crónica) and a tighter realism that relates Juan Ángel’s investigations. This collating of heterogeneous styles results in a work that “straddles the line between tradition and avant-garde.” (Bernardo Navarro Villarreal, writing in Latin American Literature Today.) The book was a finalist in Spain’s 2019 Martín Fierro competition for novels of social criticism. It is the first volume of a planned trilogy. Alex Halatsis

Not Paying The Rent written by Neil Wilcock and has been published by Springer Nature this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-09-20 with Political Science categories.
This is a conversational book with chapters directly followed by responses from experts. The main authors propose that the failure in development is not due to capitalism but rather rentism, which is earnings based on political rather market returns. Rent prevents development and ingrains social and economic inequalities. Using the case study of Brazil’s economic development, it is shown how development fails because policies Brazil and other low to middle-income countries promote do not overcome the main obstacle to development - rent. The overcoming of rent would occur within a model of globalisation whereby the advanced economics still prosper concurrently as the poorest countries grow, all underpinned by international organisations defending a rule-based globalisation. Not Paying the Rent: Imagining a Fairer Capitalism presents a new application of the theory of rent, both historically in the case of Brazil, and in practical terms in tackling it through modern international organisations. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and general readers interested in inequality and development economics.

The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Dolores Moyano Martin, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 1977, and P. Sue Mundell was assistant editor from 1994 to 1998. The subject categories for Volume 56 are as follows: ∑ Electronic Resources for the Humanities ∑ Art ∑ History (including ethnohistory) ∑ Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) ∑ Philosophy: Latin American Thought ∑ Music

Na primeira parte do livro, o autor aborda sua experiência dentro do Movimento Rastafari, seu contato com a música reggae, com artistas e sacerdotes jamaicanos, bem como a trajetória de preconceitos e desafios que viveu para se formar como bacharel em uma profissão da área da saúde devido ao seu visual rastafari da época, passando pela elaboração do artigo científico, apresentação do trabalho no Congresso Brasileiro de Naturologia e, posteriormente, realizando a publicação do artigo na revista Cadernos de Naturologia e Terapias Complementares, até o momento atual em que compartilha suas reflexões e aprendizados. Na segunda parte, você poderá conferir o artigo na íntegra, a versão completa, mais ampla que a versão do artigo publicado, que foi resumida para atender às especificações do periódico. Poderá desfrutar, também, de capítulos adicionais, que aprofundam algumas reflexões da temática, e o questionário realizado nas entrevistas com os rastas que trouxeram seus conhecimentos, filosofia e práticas para contribuir com a pesquisa. Perceberá que a Cultura Rastafari possui uma história muito rica e que, apesar de ter como principal local de preservação a Jamaica, tem relações íntimas com a própria história do Brasil. Por se tratar de um saber integrativo, que traz autonomia e fortalece as culturas tradicionais, é de vital importância no momento contemporâneo, quando a desigualdade social, a miséria e a precariedade nos cuidados com a saúde ainda são uma triste realidade, junto à crescente desconexão com a natureza, poluição, degradação do meio ambiente, que geram uma crise socioecológica sem precedentes, evidenciando a urgente necessidade de restaurar um estilo de vida e mentalidade que levem em conta a importância de viver em harmonia com os movimentos naturais e cultivar o respeito à vida.
