Bibliografía selecta: Historia del feminismo y estudios de género en Hispanoamérica (siglo xx)
No full textConvivialidad-Desigualdad: Explorando los nexos entre lo que nos une y lo que nos separa
Get PDFLa vida en sociedad se basa, al menos aparentemente, sobre una contradicción. Nuestra supervivencia como sociedad y también como especie está estrechamente vinculada a la interdependencia tanto entre los seres humanos entre sí, como entre éstos y otros seres vivos como las plantas y los animales. Esta interdependencia, sin embargo, es negada por las formas de vida concretas de las sociedades contemporáneas, casi todas ellas estructuradas sobre profundas desigualdades sociales y basadas en la ideología del excepcionalismo humano. En vista a ello, el nuevo campo de estudios que definimos como convivialidad-desigualdad pretende llenar este vacío mediante la construcción de un marco teórico-analítico y del desarrollo de estudios empíricos correspondientes, en el que se puedan investigar en toda su extensión los nexos inseparables entre la diferencia, la desigualdad y la coexistencia entre los seres humanos entre sí, así como entre éstos y otros seres vivos. La articulación de estas dos nociones, desigualdad y convivialidad, constituye la base de la colaboración interdisciplinaria que se lleva a cabo en Mecila. Desarrollados en varios campos temáticos, los estudios sobre convivialidad-desigualdad en el Centro ofrecen una plataforma abierta para la innovación en la cooperación interdisciplinar en el amplio campo de las humanidades, las ciencias sociales y en diálogo con las ciencias naturales. El presente libro inaugura la serie de publicaciones que consolida la cooperación entre Mecila y CLACSO y busca ofrecer al público hispanohablante una introducción cualificada a los estudios sobre convivialidad-desigualdad
Unequal and Divided: The Middle Classes in Contemporary Brazil
Get PDFThe middle class, or rather middle classes, to do justice to their heterogeneity, have been and continue to be at the centre of the long political and economic crisis that has been ravaging Brazil since 2014. Available interpretations that try to explain the positions taken by different political authors are biased by structural, ideological, or cultural determinism. To escape these determinisms, I draw on Stuart Hall’s political sociology in order to understand the link between the class situation of the middle classes and their constitution as political subjects of various shades as contingent intersectional articulations. The emphasis on contingency obviously does not imply a belief that political developments are fortuitous and detached from social structures. Nor does it ignore the existence of groups with deeply held ideological or cultural convictions who consistently adopt, over long periods of time, political attitudes compatible with these beliefs. However, taken as a whole, the middle classes have shown a very heterogeneous and changing political trajectory over time. They adhere to discourses - both right-wing or more egalitarian ones - and make political choices based on the power of these narratives to capture, in given circumstances, their anxieties, expectations, claims and aspirations
Open Scriptures: Notation in Contemporary Artistic Practices in Europe and the Americas
No full textNumerous artists and theorists since the early 20th century have approached notation with the idea of analysing the accompanying practices of writing, inscription and projection. Throughout this time, we have seen an unusual multiplication of the scope of notation based on new paradigms that contemplate not only a combination of semiotic systems, but also their expression in varying materialities.
The authors offer a wide range of perspectives that are being developed around what is understood today as notation, both from the practice and poetics of the artists themselves as well as from the theory and critical analysis of specific works. These approaches show the multiple forms of legibility and significance that make notation an open type of writing, capable of manifesting itself in new and unusual ways in different art forms.
The essays compiled here weave a multilateral and interdisciplinary dialogue between academics, creators and agents from Europe and Latin America that, while largely based on literature and music, go beyond disciplinary spheres, proposing ways to further explore the intermedial richness of notation

Get PDFUma ilha brasileira no campo literário alemão: Dinâmicas de circulação literária pela editora Suhrkamp e a recepção da literatura do Brasil (1970-1990)
Get PDF30 anos de literatura brasileira na RFA: como uma das editoras centrais da Europa do pós-guerra, a editora Suhrkamp, contribuiu e impulsionou a recepção da literatura brasileira no mercado editorial alemão. Através da análise de documentos do arquivo da editora Douglas Pompeu reflete sobre a posição marginal da produção literária brasileira na circulação literária internacional, assim como sobre o seus esforços de divulgação para além das fronteiras nacionais.
O estudo pode ser resumido como uma pesquisa de cruzamento entre dois espaços literários com valências distintas, mas em contato e movimento constante, no qual editores, agentes, redatores, tradutores e o leitor tomam o protagonismo da instância autor na produção do livro e na legibilidade, traduzibilidade e vendabilidade do produto literário
