A inicios de 1868, los vulcanólogos alemanes Alphons Stübel y Wilhelm Reiss arribaron a la costa atlántica de Colombia, la primera estación de su estadía en América del Sur, que duró hasta 1877. En el transcurso del viaje, compraron miles de fotografías, principalmente de ciudades, paisajes y “tipos populares”. Estas imágenes constituyen la colección más importante de fotografías de Sudamérica de mediados del siglo xix. En Colombia. Un viaje fotográfico: las colecciones de Stübel y Reiss (siglo xix) (Editorial Universidad del Rosario, 2022), los historiadores Sven Schuster y Jessica Alejandra Neva Oviedo presentan las colecciones de Stübel y Reiss por primera vez en conjunto y se enfocan en las fotografías provenientes de Colombia. A partir de ello, el lector se enterará sobre cómo los viajeros alemanes usaron la fotografía en su obra científica y para documentar su viaje por los Estados Unidos de Colombia y, además, verá quiénes eran los fotógrafos encargados, cómo trabajaron y cuáles eran sus redes profesionales. En este sentido, el propósito de Colombia. Un viaje fotográfico es devolver las imágenes al contexto en el que fueron realizadas, y por ello incluye no solo 160 fotografías de alta calidad, sino también dibujos, litografías, mapas y pinturas. Así pues, esta se constituye como una obra fundamental para el estudio de la cultura visual del siglo XIX colombiano. Entrevista a cargo de Candela Marini, profesora asistente de estudios culturales en MSOE University.

The life and legacy of a young Argentinian woman whose disappearance in 1976 haunts those she left behind It started with a coincidence--when Marc Raboy happened to discover that he shared a surname with a young leftwing Argentinian journalist who in June 1976 was ambushed by a rightwing death squad while driving with her family in the city of Mendoza. Alicia's partner, the celebrated poet and fellow Montonero Francisco "Paco" Urondo, was killed on the spot. Their baby daughter was taken and placed in an orphanage. Her daughter ultimately rescued but Alicia was never heard from again.  In Looking for Alicia: The Unfinished Life of an Argentinian Rebel (Oxford University Press, 2022), Raboy pursues her story not simply to learn what happened when the post-Perón government in Argentina turned to state terror, but to understand what drove Alicia and others to risk their lives to oppose it. Author and subject share not only a surname--a distant ancestral connection--but youthful rebellion, journalistic ambition, and the radical politics that were a hallmark of the 1960s. Their destinies diverged through a combination of choice and circumstance. Using family archives, interviews with those who knew her, and transcripts from the 2011 trial of former Argentine security forces personnel involved in her disappearance, Raboy reassembles Alicia's story. He supplements his narrative with documents from Argentina's attempts to deal with the legacy of the military dictatorship, such as the 1984 report of the National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons, Nunca Más ("Never Again"); as well as secret diplomatic correspondence recently made public through the U.S. State Department's Argentina Declassification Project. Looking for Alicia immerses readers in the years of the so-called "Dirty War," which, decades later, cast their shadow still. It also gives an unforgettably human face to the many thousands who disappeared during that dark era, those they left behind, and the power of the memories that bind them.

¿Qué lugar tienen los esclavos de origen africano en la narrativa identitaria argentina, más allá de las pintorescas estampas de la colonia y la independencia, con vendedoras ambulantes y abnegados soldados negros? Tendemos a creer que la mayoría de ellos murieron en defensa de una revolución que les había "otorgado" la libertad. Y que los escasos sobrevivientes y sus hijos se integraron democráticamente a un país que –a diferencia de lo que sucedía en el Caribe, Brasil o los Estados Unidos– no miraba el color de sus ciudadanos y ponía a todos en pie de igualdad. Una historia de la emancipación negra. Esclavitud y abolición en la Argentina (Buenos Aires: Siglo Veintiuno Editores, 2021) viene a desmontar y complejizar esas presunciones cristalizadas. Buceando en archivos judiciales, policiales y parroquiales en los que encuentra huellas de esos sujetos y de sus luchas y atenta también a los discursos de las élites, Magdalena Candioti reconstruye las múltiples dimensiones del proceso de abolición en el Río de la Plata, que se extendió desde 1813, cuando se dictó la ley de vientre libre, hasta 1853-1860, cuando la Constitución determinó el fin de la esclavitud. En esos años nacieron niñas y niños que no fueron libres de modo inmediato, sino que quedaron bajo el patronato de los amos de sus madres, en una frágil condición muy cercana a la servidumbre. Este libro recupera sus historias y cuenta cómo conquistaron su libertad o debieron comprarla con dinero, trabajo gratuito o servicio militar; cómo denunciaron ante los tribunales o los gobernantes violencias y falta de descanso; cómo pelearon por ser tasados adecuadamente, por cambiar de amo, por vivir con sus cónyuges e hijos; cómo desplegaron estrategias de negociación y compromiso con sus patrones en sutiles acuerdos cotidianos. A la vez, analiza el rol de las marcaciones raciales en las posibilidades de integración, participación política y movilidad social tras la revolución. Con notable fuerza narrativa, Magdalena Candioti presenta las experiencias de resistencia y redes identitarias de miles de africanas, africanos y sus hijos en busca de su emancipación. Así, hace un aporte historiográfico decisivo que, al revelar cómo fue la lógica de la abolición, invita a pensar el lugar de un sujeto ausente en la memoria social.

Y que los escasos sobrevivientes y sus hijos se integraron democráticamente a un país que –a diferencia de lo que sucedía en el Caribe, Brasil o los Estados Unidos– no miraba el color de sus ciudadanos y ponía a todos en pie de igualdad. "Una historia de la emancipación negra. Esclavitud y abolición en la Argentina (Siglo Veintiuno Editores, 2021) viene a desmontar y complejizar esas presunciones cristalizadas. Buceando en archivos judiciales, policiales y parroquiales en los que encuentra huellas de esos sujetos y de sus luchas, y atenta también a los discursos de las élites, Magdalena Candioti reconstruye las múltiples dimensiones del proceso de abolición en el Río de la Plata, que se extendió desde 1813, cuando se dictó la ley de vientre libre, hasta 1853-1860, cuando la Constitución determinó el fin de la esclavitud. En esos años nacieron niñas y niños que no fueron libres de modo inmediato, sino que quedaron bajo el patronato de los amos de sus madres, en una frágil condición muy cercana a la servidumbre. Este libro recupera sus historias y cuenta cómo conquistaron su libertad o debieron comprarla con dinero, trabajo gratuito o servicio militar; cómo denunciaron ante los tribunales o los gobernantes violencias y falta de descanso; cómo pelearon por ser tasados adecuadamente, por cambiar de amo, por vivir con sus cónyuges e hijos; cómo desplegaron estrategias de negociación y compromiso con sus patrones en sutiles acuerdos cotidianos. A la vez, analiza el rol de las marcaciones raciales en las posibilidades de integración, participación política y movilidad social tras la revolución. Con notable fuerza narrativa, Magdalena Candioti presenta las experiencias de resistencia y redes identitarias de miles de africanas, africanos y sus hijos en busca de su emancipación. Así, hace un aporte historiográfico decisivo que, al revelar cómo fue la lógica de la abolición, invita a pensar el lugar de un sujeto ausente en la memoria social. Entrevista por Candela Marini profesora de Estudios Culturales y Español en MSOE University.

Known around the world simply as Lula, Luis Inácio Lula da Silva was born in 1945 to illiterate parents who migrated to industrializing São Paulo. He learned to read at ten years of age, left school at fourteen, became a skilled metalworker, rose to union leadership, helped end a military dictatorship--and in 2003 became the thirty-fifth president of Brazil. During his administration, Lula led his country through reforms that lifted tens of millions out of poverty. In Lula and His Politics of Cunning: From Metalworker to President of Brazil (University of North Carolina Press, 2020), John D. French, one of the foremost historians of Brazil, provides the first critical biography of the leader whom even his political opponents see as strikingly charismatic, humorous, and endearing. Interweaving an intimate and colorful story of Lula's life--his love for home, soccer, factory floor, and union hall--with an analysis of large-scale forces, French argues that Lula was uniquely equipped to influence the authoritarian structures of power in this developing nation. His cunning capacity to speak with, not at, people and to create shared political meaning was fundamental to his political triumphs. After Lula left office, his opponents convicted and incarcerated him on charges of money laundering and corruption--but his immense army of voters celebrated his recent release from jail, insisting that he is the victim of a right-wing political ambush.

During the independence era in Mexico, individuals and factions of all stripes embraced the printing press as a key weapon in the broad struggle for political power. In Ink under the Fingernails: Printing Politics in Nineteenth-century Mexico (University of California Press, 2021) historian Corinna Zeltsman takes readers into the printing shops, government offices, courtrooms, and streets of Mexico City, and reconstructs the practical negotiations and discursive contests that surrounded print over a century of political transformation, from the late colonial era to the Mexican Revolution. Centering the diverse communities that worked behind the scenes at urban presses and examining their social practices and aspirations, Zeltsman explores how printer interactions with state and religious authorities shaped broader debates about press freedom and authorship. Beautifully crafted and ambitious in scope, Ink under the Fingernails sheds new light on Mexico's histories of state formation and political culture, identifying printing shops as unexplored spaces of democratic practice, where the boundaries between manual and intellectual labor blurred.

No Laughing Matter: Race Joking and Resistance in Brazilian Social Media (Vernon Press, 2020) examines the social phenomenon of construction and dissemination of colonial-like racist discourses fostered against upwardly-mobile black women through disparagement humour on social media platforms, adopting a fresh and innovative perspective. In this book, Luiz Valério P. Trindade explores the idea that disparagement humour might not be as exempt of social impact as the jokers might believe, and that, in fact, this kind of humour reveals the hidden facet of deep-seated colonial ideologies still present in Brazilian society despite being hailed as a unique model of a post-racial society. The author argues that these ideologies establish and naturalise superior social positions and symbolic privileges to whites while undermining and delegitimising black women's upward social mobility. Social media platforms enable the proponents of these beliefs not only to engage in the practice of online hate speech but also to attract a considerable number of like-minded people, creating a long-lasting echo chamber effect in the cyberspace. This way, they manage to amplify the reach and reverberation of their racist discourses in the online environment in ways not commonly seen in Brazilian offline social contexts.

Swashbuckling tales of valiant gauchos roaming Argentina and Uruguay were nineteenth-century Latin American best sellers. But when these stories jumped from the page to the circus stage and beyond, their cultural, economic, and political influence revolutionized popular culture and daily life. In Staging Frontiers: The Making of Modern Popular Culture in Argentina and Uruguay (University of New Mexico Press), William Acree guides readers through the deep history of popular entertainment before turning to circus culture and rural dramas that celebrated the countryside on stage. More than just riveting social experiences, these dramas were among the region’s most dominant attractions on the eve of the twentieth century. Staging Frontiers further explores the profound impacts this phenomenon had on the ways people interacted and on the broader culture that influenced the region. This new, modern popular culture revolved around entertainment and related products, yet it was also central to making sense of social class, ethnic identity, and race as demographic and economic transformations were reshaping everyday experiences in this rapidly urbanizing region. Staging Frontiers is the winner of the 2020 Best Book in the Nineteenth Century Award from the LASA Nineteenth Century Section. The book has just been published in Spanish as well (Prometeo Editorial, 2021). Candela Marini is an Assistant Professor of Cultural Studies and Spanish at MSOE University.

What history and motivations make up the discourses we are taught to hold, and spread, as common sense? As a member of Brazil's upper middle class, Ana Beatriz Ribeiro grew up with the image that to be developed  was to be as European as possible. However, as a researcher in Europe during her country's Workers' Party era, she kept reading that Africans should be repaid for developing Brazilian society – via Brazil's "bestowal" of development upon Africa as an "emerging power." In Modernization Dreams, Lusotropical Promises: A Global Studies Perspective on Brazil-Mozambique Development Discourse (Brill, 2020), Ribeiro investigates where these two worldviews might intersect, diverge and date back to, gauging relations between representatives and projects of the Brazilian and Mozambican states, said to be joined in cooperation more than others.

Under dictatorship in Argentina, sex and sexuality were regulated to the point where sex education, explicit images, and even suggestive material were prohibited. With the return to democracy in 1983, Argentines experienced new freedoms, including sexual freedoms. The explosion of the availability and ubiquity of sexual material became known as the destape, and it uncovered sexuality in provocative ways. This was a mass-media phenomenon, but it went beyond this. In ¡Destape! Sex, Democracy, and Freedom in Postdictatorial Argentina (University of Pittsburgh Press, 2019), Natalia Milanesio shows that the destape was a profound transformation of the way Argentines talked, understood, and experienced sexuality, a change in manners, morals, and personal freedoms.

Analyzing a wide variety of late-nineteenth-century sources, Sex, Skulls, and Citizens: Gender and Racial Science in Argentina (1860-1910) (Vanderbilt University Press, 2020) argues that Argentine scientific projects of the era were not just racial encounters, but were also conditioned by sexual relationships in all their messy, physical reality. The writers studied here (an eclectic group of scientists, anthropologists, and novelists, including Estanislao Zeballos, Lucio and Eduarda Mansilla, Ramón Lista, and Florence Dixie reflect on Indigenous sexual practices, analyze the advisability and effects of interracial sex, and use the language of desire to narrate encounters with Indigenous peoples as they try to scientifically pinpoint Argentina's racial identity and future potential. Kerr's reach extends into history of science, literary studies, and history of anthropology, illuminating a scholarly time and place in which the lines betwixt were much blurrier, if they existed at all.
