Recenzii
"Culture Works looks deeply into and beyond the current rhetoric on art with an acuity and sense of irony and understanding of the realpolitiks that are all too rare in the cultural policy literature. Professor Dávila has given us a brilliant introduction and guide to the complex interactions of art, markets, politics, and community in the first part of the 21st century. Paul DiMaggio, author of Nonprofit Enterprise in the Arts
"Culture Works challenges us to think critically about Latino culture and the men and women who create it every day. From shopping malls in Puerto Rico to art galleries in East Harlem and tango palaces in Bueños Aires, Arlene Dávila shows us the underbelly of a global political economy that gorges itself on authentic cultural forms and grinds them down into commodities. Dávilas understanding of these complex forces illuminates the connections between all creative landscapes and the elites who try to mold them to their political will. Sharon Zukin, author of Naked City: The Death and Life of Authentic Urban Places
"Culture Works is Arlene Dávilas most recent contribution to Latino/a and American Studies in which she critically approaches the cultural politics of neoliberalism. Based on ethnographic research in Puerto Rico, New York City and Buenos Aires, the author reveals how dynamics of space, value and mobility that are at play in each site have similar implications when culture is put to work.Dávila meticulously demonstrates how, within the neoliberal logics, culture is not free of racial, national and colonial imperatives. Through various case studies her anthropological investigation shows how neoliberalising processes across the Americas intersect with particular cultural policies and thus produce significant inequalities and tensions within creative economies." - Social Anthropology/Anthropologie Sociale, May 2013
