    Abstract: Spurred by a new wave of protests around the world - from the Occupy movement, Black Lives Matter, the Arab Spring, and the various street marches against neoliberal governments throughout Latin America - Raussert examines how artistic practices in the Americas have challenged the control of public space in relation to gender, race, sexuality, class, and age in three periods (the 1920s and 1930s, the 1960s and 1970s, and the new millennium). This inter-American perspective sheds light on common utopian aspirations across time and space, as in the networked movements of indigenous, African-descended and the diasporic groups, epitomized by the Zapatista slogan: "Mientras los medios de comunicación sigan mintiendo, las paredes seguirán hablando" (As long as the media continues to lie, the walls will continue to talk). Indeed, this must-read book shows how contesting artists subvert the increasing privatization, consumerization and electronic monitoring of public space and its virtualization in the new media in our own time period. | George Yúdice (Professor of Latin American Studies and Modern Literature at the University of Miami, U.S.A.)

    Abstract: "This anthology reflects on heritage, utopia, and questions of temporality in light of recent changes in the Americas, that is to say the rise to power of several right-wing governments. The essays argue that the focus of analysis should not simply be on changes of government, but rather on long-term transformations which have an impact on temporal imaginaries in the hemisphere"--

    Abstract: Recently, far-right candidates, such as Donald Trump in the USA and Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil were elected regardless of the scandals they had caused with their openly sexist and racist comments. Likewise, the electoral success of both presidents was opposed by widespread intersectional feminist protests. Thus, this essay pursues a double objective: first, to examine the logic and the role of gender for (right-wing) populism with the aim of re-evaluating the phenomenon and amplifying the theories towards more complex forms of description and analysis. Secondly, the essay outlines spaces and practices of resistance which also draw on gender politics (or make resistance against anti-sexism their point of departure). Based on the assumption that gender is not a side effect or a minor aspect of current populist rhetoric, it is argued that gender provides a fundamental and central stage for the current struggles for cultural hegemony that numerous societies currently find themselves confronted with in the light of precariousness and neoliberal crises. Thus, an intersectional approach towards gender in populism not only enriches the field of studying but may also provide an innovative parameter for a re-evaluation of the phenomenon and the theorisation of (right-wing) populism

    Abstract: The blogs of immigrants to Quebec document migration as a narrative (re)construction of the processes of experiences that are negotiated in the blogging community of the immigrants. In the course of this protracted process of negotiation and signification, different concepts of temporality play an essential role. They originate in two fundamentally different areas of discourse: first, they are rooted in the institutional discourse of Canadian immigration policy (which defines immigration as a parcours) and second, they emerge in immigrants' personal experiences and emotions, which are linked to their own immigration project. Using the example of an extensive corpus of web blogs of Latin American immigrants to Quebec and within the methodological framework of discourse analysis and conversational linguistics, my essay examines the forms, functions, and meanings of the construction of the concepts of temporality of migration

    Abstract: This essay takes an inter-American and transpacific look at historical processes of discrimination and exclusion of free Chinese migrants in the Americas from the sixteenth to the twentieth century. The analysis of the correlation between migration, liberalism and racism will allow us to gain a better understanding of the situations of discrimination faced by Asian immigrants and others considered as "non-Whites" in the United States, Europe and other parts of the world. Today, this issue is once again gaining relevance, particularly in light of the xenophobic and anti-Chinese reactions that have arisen with the coronavirus pandemic

    Abstract: The first national parks in Latin America were established in Argentina, among them the Nahuel Huapi, the Iguazu Falls or the Perito Moreno Glacier. These natural reserves are established in a transnational entangled space where ideas, imaginations, people, biota and artefacts circulate. The idea of Argentinian national parks has been influenced by various approaches, ranging from the US-American parking policy to the French landscape architecture and the Prussian sustainable forestry to international debates about nature conservation. While national parks are now considered a haven of wilderness, the contemporary interpretation in the first half of the 20th century has been more open. The notion has prevailed in Argentina to perceive national parks as "genuine instruments of colonisation". Agricultural colonization and displacement of indigenous people, comprehensive programmes for urbanization and touristification of the landscape as well as biological colonisation through salmons, deer, and Douglas firs form an integral part of the Argentinian parking policy. Thus, the connection between nature conservation and colonisation will be examined in this book by asking the following question: How do national parks work?
