Recenzii
'New Approaches to Latin American Studies offers an invaluable collective account of the transformations and "turns" that the field of Latin American Studies has experienced in the past twenty-five years. Discussing significant theoretical paradigms and concepts (from cultural studies to memory and ethics to affect and posthegemony), the top-rank scholars contribute, in each individual chapter, to the construction of a comprehensive, sophisticated and rigorous cartography of the field of Latin American Studies.' - Ignacio M. Sánchez Prado, author of Screening Neoliberalism and Strategic Occidentalism

'What is the status of theoretical thinking about Latin America? New Approaches to Latin American Studies: Culture and Power includes thought-provoking and engaging answers to this question offered by contemporary thinkers and critics who trace the genealogies, challenges, and contributions of sixteen "turns" or paradigm shifts in the critical engagement of Latin America as an object and subject of study.'
—Yolanda Martínez-San Miguel, Professor of Latino and Caribbean Studies and Comparative Literature, Rutgers-New Brunswick
'What a wonderful set of mappings of the analytical and theoretical frameworks that have informed Latin American Studies and of the salient texts that pioneered these frameworks! They shed new light for seasoned scholars, not to mention for those engaging this highly transdisciplinary field for the first time. Juan Poblete has gathered the very best writers to focus on the various scholarly turns, enabling the reader not only to understand how Latin American realities are understood at different junctures but also how those turns, often initially formulated elsewhere, developed and how they have been adapted. This book is a must for every student of Latin America in the humanities and social sciences.'
