A Post-Neoliberal Era in Latin America?: Social Conflicts and Cultural Responses

This book examines cultural responses to the growing social instability in Latin America, a result of the failure of a number of programs and ongoing conflicts between neoliberal and post-neoliberal forces. The contributors look at a wide range of cultural forms—such as underground cinema, street fairs, and self-help books—to explore how Latin Americans build communities and make meaning in their everyday lives during a period of profound unrest.
