This edited volume provides a comprehensive overview of the renewal of academic engagement in the Argentinian dictatorship in the context of the post-2001 crisis. Significant social and judicial changes and the opening of archives have led to major revisions of the research dedicated to this period. As such, the contributors offer a unique presentation to an English-speaking audience, mapping and critiquing these developments and widening the recent debates in Argentina about the legacy of the dictatorship in this long-term perspective.

"La Louisiane, colonisée par la France, est le seul état d'Amérique où le français est organique : non seulement un quart de million de cajuns se réclament de cette appartenance linguistique, mais encore certaines tribus indiennes, comme les Houmas. À ceux-ci s'ajoutent moins de dix mille personnes qui parlent créole, Kréyol La Lwizyàn. Mais les points communs vont au-delà de la langue : le climat, l'agriculture, la géographie, la cuisine, et surtout l'histoire et la culture sont en partage entre Louisiane et Antilles. La Louisiane, comme tout le Sud, est l'une des pointes du triangle de la Traite. Le présent recueil explore quelques-uns de ces fascinants partages dans un esprit pluridisciplinaire."--Page 4 of cover.

"Fondée en 1718 dans un méandre du Mississippi par l'explorateur Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne et ainsi nommée en l'honneur du Régent Philippe, duc d'Orléans, vendue en 1803 aux États-Unis par Napoléon le, La Nouvelle-Orléans a conservé avec la France un lien particulier. La ville du "carré français", florissant port de commerce aux moeurs réputées libres, demeure tout au long du XIXe siècle, pour les Français, une porte d'entrée en Amérique et parfois un refuge.

"These essays make us reflect on why certain objects were deemed worthy of preservation at certain moments in time when others were not. The essays also have a great deal to say about the creation and reconfiguration of memories. Curators and collectors, rather than just preserving old artifacts as a timeless slice of the past, have been providing ingredients - ranging from flannel underwear to fine art - for the creation of new cultural forms and new cultural memories. it turns out that immersion in material culture is as much about creation as preservation. That irony is worth savoring as you dive into this thought-provoking collection.

Maroon Cosmopolitics: Personhood, Creativity and Incorporation sheds further light on the contemporary modes of Maroon circulation and presence in Suriname and in the French Guiana. The contributors assembled in the volume look to describe Maroon ways of inhabiting, transforming and circulating through different localities in the Guianas, as well as their modes of creating and incorporating knowledge and artefacts into their social relations and spaces. By bringing together authors with diverse perspectives on the situation of the Guianese Maroon at the twenty-first century, the volume contributes to the anthropological literature on Maroon societies, providing ethnographic, and historical depth and legitimacy to the contemporary lives of the descendants of those who fled from slavery in the Americas.

The Portuguese Jewish diaspora was born out of a double tragedy: the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 and the forced conversion/expulsion of the Jews from Portugal in 1497. The potent combination of expulsion, Inquisition, and crypto-Judaism left people neither wholly Jewish nor wholly Christian in their identity. Subsequently many left the Iberian peninsula; some found refuge in the Caribbean, but succeeded in maintaining strong connections with Portuguese Jews in western Europe, the Ottoman empire, and the Far East, while they also forged ties with the surrounding peoples and cultures. This book looks at many different aspects of this complex past. Its interdisciplinary approach allows a wealth of new information to be brought together to create a comprehensive picture. Part I sets the context, and also considers the relationship of Caribbean Jewry to European trading systems; its special ties to Amsterdam and Dutch-ruled Curacao; and the role of Jewish merchants in Jamaica's commerce. Part II examines the material and visual culture of Jews in the British and Dutch Caribbean, while Part III looks at Caribbean Jewish identity and heritage and their modern manifestations. Part IV contains archival studies that illuminate other subjects of importance-adventure and piracy, Jewish participation in a nineteenth-century revolt of black slaves and in the first Jamaican elections after Jews were granted the right to vote, and questions of concubinage and sexual relations between Jews and blacks. Part V moves from the local to the international, in particular the connection with mainland America. In their diversity, the contributions to this volume suggest the many ways in which the formation of the Caribbean Jewish diaspora can be understood today: as a Jewish diaspora dispersed under different European colonial empires; as a Jewish cultural entity created by a set of shared traditions and historical memories; and as one component in a web of relationships that characterized the Atlantic world. Defining it is no simple matter: like all diaspora identities it was constantly in flux, reinventing itself under changing historical circumstances.

Emanating from a colloquium in pre-Columbian art and archaeology held at the University of Chile in Santiago, Images in Action presents interpretations of a large corpus of art and iconography from the Southern and South-Central Andes, bringing together some of the most esteemed scholars in the field. More than thirty authors, all with extensive experience in the Southern Andes, examine artifacts, artworks, textiles, archaeology and architecture to develop creative new insights on the cultural interactions between people in prehistoric western South America. The volume's nearly 700 images - many in colour - are archived in an online database with metadata, fully referenced in the text, and searchable.

Indigenous peoples have been cast as representing modernity's fading premodern Other. This volume starts from the opposite assumption, namely that contemporary indigenous peoples are specifically modern societies, profoundly shaped by their specific ways of dealing with, making use of and transforming the contexts imposed by nation-states, colonial systems and globalization. They do that from a position alternative to that of the modern West. The book aims to understand these processes and the resulting forms of indigenous modernities in Lowland South America through ethnographic case studies. It argues that there is more about indigenous modernities than the simple assertion that indigenous peoples are now modern too. Indigenous groups are modern in multiple, complex and alternative ways. As the contributions show this holds true for current forms of shamanism and indigenous Christian churches, new meanings of traditional clothing, as well as indigenous cosmologies that confront western concepts, technology and welfare programs. The notion of indigenous modernities refers to a space beyond old modernist dichotomies. The paradox, like the disturbing Otherness it brings to our attention, is the result of a relation in which assumptions we take ontologically for granted are confronted by other realities. Looking at the creative ways indigenous peoples' practices subvert such assumptions may result in substantial irritation and is a starting point for a renewed reflection on classical assumptions about modernities and indigenous ways of both being modern and exceeding modernity in the face of long-standing power inequalities and the imposition of logics of Western ontology.

"Epitomizing the radiating sun and perpetuating the cycles of life and time, fire was, and continues to be, a central force in the Mesoamerican cosmos. Mesoamericans understood heat and flames as animate forces that signified strength and vitality; the most powerful of individuals were embodied with immense heat. Moreover, fire was transformative; it was both a means to destroy and to transport offerings to otherworldly places. The importance of heat and flames is evident in a spectrum of ritual practices, ranging from the use of sweat baths to the burning of offerings. Human bodies were among the most valuable resources heated or consumed by fire. This volume addresses the traditions, circumstances, and practices that involved the burning of bodies and bone in order to move toward a better understanding of the ideologies behind these acts of body burning. It brings together scholars working across Mesoamerica who approach these dual themes (fire and the body) from different methodologies and interdisciplinary lenses. Each contributor uses fire on bodies as a cue to illuminate the deeper grounds of Mesoamerican ritual practice through time and space, while highlighting what is unique and distinct to each of the societies that shared its territories"-- Provided by publisher.

"Depuis les années 1970 les rapports entre mémoire et identités interrogent les sciences sociales dans nombre de sociétés. C'est le cas du Canada. Aujourd'hui, ce pays ne peut plus être envisagé seulement dans une opposition francophones/ anglophones. L'importance des flux migratoires venus des Amériques, d'Asie et d'Afrique tout comme les revendications identitaires des autochtones complexifient le rapport au passé... Cet ouvrage se veut une réflexion sur les enjeux de mémoire qui traversent le Canada. Quels sont les lieux de mémoires emblématiques du pays et des communautés qui le composent ? Quels acteurs contribuent à la construction de(s) mémoire(s) canadienne(s) ? Quels usages politiques et sociaux du passé y fait-on ? De quels moyens se dote la société pour gérer ces questions ? Quelle place occupe le Québec dans ce processus ? Pour répondre à ces questions, les auteurs ont fait le choix de la pluridisciplinarité en réunissant les contributions d'historiens, de géographes, de spécialistes des langues et civilisations, des sciences du langage ou encore de la communication. À l'encontre des idées reçues, elles déconstruisent l'image d'un pays jeune sans histoire."--Page 4 of cover.

Neoliberalism changed the face of Latin America and left average citizens struggling to cope in many ways. Popular sectors were especially hard hit as wages declined and unemployment increased. The backlash to neoliberalism in the form of popular protest and electoral mobilization opened space for leftist governments to emerge. The turn to left governments raised popular expectations for a second wave of incorporation. Although a growing literature has analyzed many aspects of left governments, there is no study of how the redefinition of the organized popular sectors, their allies, and their struggles have reshaped the political arena to include their interests-until now. This volume examines the role played in the second wave of incorporation by political parties, trade unions, and social movements in five cases: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, and Venezuela. The cases shed new light on a subject critical to understanding the change in the distribution of political power related to popular sectors and their interests-a key issue in the study of post-neoliberalism.

Diasporic Intimacies: Queer Filipinos and Canadian Imaginaries is the first edited volume of its kind, featuring the works of leading scholars, artists, and activists who reflect on the contributions of queer Filipinos to Canadian culture and society.Addressing a wide range of issues beyond the academy, the authors present a rich and under-studied archive of personal reflections, in-depth interviews, creative works, and scholarly essays. Their trandsdisciplinary approach highlights the need for queer, transgressive, and utopian practices that render visible histories of migration, empire building, settler colonialism, and globalization.Timely, urgent, and fascinating, Diasporic Intimacies offers an accessible entry point for readers who seek to pursue critically engaged community work, arts education, curatorial practice, and socially inflected research on sexuality, gender, and race in this ever-changing world.
