This article presents hypotheses regarding the ideas of race and their associated concepts that circulated in a particular Chilean literature between the 1840s and 1940s, with the perspective of uncovering ideological continuities and divergences. The century that begins and ends in these decades is crucial for studying the development of racialism/racism in Chile, as it marks the consolidation of the Chilean literary field and the strengthening of the nation and its territories both to the north and south of colonial boundaries. This involved a discursive synthesis of specifically culturally and physically differentiated populations, in the words of the time, the encounter and amalgamation of "diverse races." In continental terms, these years stand out as the pivotal period for the development of nationalism and so-called "scientific racism," discourses and practices that were adopted by a significant portion of the Chilean intellectual elite. We will approach this exposition through writings published in Santiago, Valparaíso, and Copiapó, authored by Jotabeche (José Joaquín Vallejo), Vicente Fidel López, and Iris (Inés Echeverría Bello).

This article aims, firstly, to recover a part of the Narciso R. Colmán's poetic work that has never been republished, the folk songbook Ocara potÿ (1917, 1921), the first book of poems in Guarani published in Paraguay. Secondly, it provides a way of approaching the work starting from the analysis and relationship between literary procedures and representations on language, subjects, and nation from the point of view of Latin American Cultural Studies. In this sense we recover the background of this literature in Guarani and then we reflect on the construction of poetry as a space of crossing of the most spoken languages in Paraguay, Guarani, and Spanish, but also as a place in-between where representations about the community (peasant/urban) and national motifs are in tension. Our analysis reveals how this "folkloric" poetry transcends the costumbrista motif and articulates meanings that interact with the national myth from the edges of power. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work analyzes two novels by contemporary authors that thematize certain events in Bolivian history: Hablar con los perros (2011) by Wilmer Urrelo (1975) revisits the Chaco War (1932-1935); En el cuerpo una voz (2017), Maximiliano Barrientos (1979) configures an alternative space and time based on the events of the separatist dispute of 2008-2009. The question about the new configurations of the national in contemporary Bolivian narrative will guide this article in order to warn of the intersection of literary and historical discourses and the possibilities of analysis that they project.

In this article, we explore the historical-cultural significance of December 2001 coordinates in Argentina and the imaginaries of the national from post dictatorship narrations through the categories of multitude, space, and time. Thus, we point out fragments of utopias that appropriate and rewrite events from Argentine history, and the potentiality of the monstrous and the zombie as configurations that enable us to read mythical refoundations of the national, the effects of State terrorism and (im) possible topias in the post 2001 narrative.

This article explores some representations of Simón Bolívar, on the occasion of the centenary of his death, contained in a special issue that Cromos magazine dedicated to this commemoration on December 13, 1930. From the analysis of fifteen writings authored mostly by members of the Colombian Academy of History, the implications of heroizing Bolívar for the symbolic building of the nation and, more broadly, the American continent are discussed regarding time, space and population. Emphasizing the role that Spain and America play in the representation of the hero, it is noted how an ovation to Bolívar becomes an ode to Spain from the historical, cultural and racial point of view, while his Americanism stands out geographically and politically. It is shown that the praise for the Liberator's epic abilities is accompanied by genealogical efforts to prove that he belonged to the European white race and to present the process of independence led by him as another phase of the civilizing mission that, since the Conquest, Spain had started in America. In short, the heroization of Bolívar entails disregard for the pre-Hispanic past and ignorance of the history prior to 1492, as well as a denigrating representation of his contemporaries. It is also concluded that, in line with the republicanism of the magazine, Cromos's Bolívar is generally a republican Bolívar. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

From an interdiscoursive and interdisciplinary perspective, this paper explores different representations with which the Mapuche People of the Gulumapu constructed their processes of cultural and territorial differentiation in tension with the Chilean Nation State. Through heterogeneous discourses -historical, literary, media, testimonial and of political organizations-, a process is expressed that moves from an ancestral unitary vision to strategically assumed modern conceptions, typical of new geopolitical and supranational scenarios, such as those of the State and/or nation. It is concluded that this process mainstream their discourses, which as a whole represent a shared collective imaginary that relates the ancestral notion -Wallmapu- with the modern vision -nation and/or Mapuche State.

Men's rugby in Buenos Aires is going through a phase of professionalization and globalization which is blurring the long-standing link between that sport and the upper-middle and upper classes of the city. Based on two ethnographic studies of porteño (Buenos Aires) rugby players, this article analyses rugby as a space for the creation of "otherness" within the country as a whole, one which legitimizes Buenos Aires as the symbolic center of the nation to the detriment of its "interior". This phenomenon is reflected in the organization of the sport and the dispute between "amateurs" and "professionals", which in turn, has a moral aspect insofar as both sides claim that they are the true representatives of the nation. An analysis of the careers of well-known former rugby players from Buenos Aires throws light on attempts to construct a nationalism "with class" in the context of the new globalization of sports which shape narratives about national identity and class.

This essay focuses on the representations of homosexuality in the works of Gilberto Freyre (1900-1987), particularly in the way in which such figurations change the notions of racial contact and miscegenation. By looking at the configuration of the "homosocial desires" in some of Freyre's texts, we can understand the role that the narratives of interracial and homosexual relations play in structuring what he calls "the Brazilian patriarchal family" and, thus, the canonical representation of Brazil as a mestizo nation.

This article investigates since a social legal perspective of sources of legitimacy of law within the global space, delving into the displacement scales of primary sources emerged from the national sovereignty immanent concept and the different social setting requirements as well, considering their roles and systemic services. In that way, this study concludes that globalized economy elements since their roles and strategies, specific pragmatic competences foreshadow show complex features guided to their own frames of logic justification in terms of interpretation and praxis.

The article examines a significant anthology of Tucumán poetry published in 1965 in light of two question arising from the analysis of the paratexts of the book: 1) the level of institutionalization attained by the field of literature and the local literary criticism of the time (perceptible from certain features of the extensive introduction of the anthology, a critical study that proposes a history of Tucumán poetry), and 2) the claim against the design of an integral poetic map of the country (shown on the inside flap of the volume), a problem linked to the visibility of the provinces of the so-called Argentinian “interior" around 1960. Such issues are intended, at the same time, as the conditions for the possible emergence of this anthology in Tucumán. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article reflects on the limitations of the international human rights regime in relation to transnational migrations, by identifying utopias that coexist within it. Based on an analysis of the fundamental documents of said regime, it identifies, in the first place, its iusnaturalist character, since it is founded on reason, awareness, and the recognition of human beings among themselves. This utopia is characterized not only by the abstract personification of human beings, but above all by attributing these same qualities to the State. The second utopia lies in the idea of universality of the regime, in establishing that human rights are recognized for all persons without exception, regardless of their nationality, citizenship or migratory condition. Finally, the third utopia is identified with the States activity of incorporating an ample catalogue of human rights within its laws, including at the constitutional level, while at the same time enacting restrictive and discriminatory legislation, with the understanding that it is thus possible to discourage, restrict, or transform mass phenomena such as migration, the causes of which are highly varied and extralegal in character, a fact that demonstrates the paradox of conceiving of human beings as being fixed in nature.

When do the first representations of newspaper reading women in the 19th Century Argentina begin to appear? What is the relevance of their profile in the politicalcultural debates of the revolutionary era? What do women read in the press, and how do they answer to the call of writers designing educational policies and reading programs for them? This article aims to answer these questions by means of a select corpus of newspapers from the beginning of the century (El Telégrafo Mercantil, El Semanario de Agricultura y Comercio, El Correo del Comercio, El Observador Americano, La Gazeta de Buenos Aires). Likewise, the article delves into literary and artistic representations to figure out the imaginaries and practices of reading women at the origins of the formation of the nation.

This article shows how, given their late incorporation into the domain of Argentina as a state, the National Territories had a different legal status from that of the provinces since they did not have political autonomy as administrative divisions. The settlers of the territories could not participate in national elections, nor could they elect their own governors, nor send a representative to the National Congress. It thus proposes an analysis of the institutional order designed for the territories in order to determine whether it is valid to interpret the situation of the settlers of these spaces as an expression of restricted political citizenship. The study is based on an analysis of the debates held in the national congress regarding the organization of the territories. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to discuss the work of debut of the young historian Caio Prado Júnior, titled Evolution Brazil Policy, published in 1933, highlighting its innovative character to promote a Marxist interpretation of Brazilian history. From this book, Caio Prado will consolidate an intellectual tradition that profoundly mark the historiography, social thought and the very Brazilian political life. This Marxist approach aims to offer a unique reflection of Brazil, comprising the process and the necessary conditions for the transition from colony to nation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This essay intends to approach Fernando Vallejo's novel El desbarrancadero as a distinctive model for the study of individual and collective identity. Memory, legacy and affection are seen as conceptual tools for the understanding of people's sense of national belonging. We focus in the need to search for a new, sharp and biting narrative necessary for questioning the official approach of a nation as an unitary entity, and for the understanding of the rift that political violence has generated in Colombian society.

History, in the modern sense of the word, is discourse materialized in books; diverse elements of a social, political, cultural, and economic nature have participated in the process of its configuration. This article aims to restore the historicity of History on the basis of two different types of books: the extensive ones, addressed to those with greatest reading skills, and those of a more accessible, informative nature that are directed to the majorities. In order to do so, it has turned to two books published by José Antonio de Plaza in 1850, the purpose of which was to disseminate information about the past and constitute it as a reference point of political formation of the inhabitants of the fledgling nation.

This article is the result of the metric lexical analysis of Cartagena's newspaper called Argos Americano (September 1810-March 1812) which shows the various discussions that took place on topics such as nation, government and independence during a turbulent time in which Spain had been invaded by the armies of Napoleon and the King Ferdinand VII was made prisoner, leaving a power vacuum that plunged regions of the American continent in uncertainty to define a government. This work is part of the research project ''Cultural History of the Press of the New Granada (1810-1820) sponsored by the Directorate of Research and the School of Communication at the University of La Sabana.

While the relationship between literature and the national subject has for some time been an important focus for research in literary studies, analysis of the relation between literary work and what I elaborate as State subjectivity is, so to speak, under developed. Using an interdisciplinary framework, I outline here a way to conceptualize the State in relation to subjects and in relation to the capitalist world system, that I believe will be fruitful for research into the literary production of State subjectivity. I conclude with an exemplification of my argument about the State that focuses on the Chilean case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Moneda Palace -as a National Historic Monument- is one of the key pieces among the eternally unfinished construction of the Republic of Chile. This paper looks into the struggles and the updating of that truth regarding the foundational past, present, and possible future of this government Palace. What historical and political meanings do the State and the citizens grant to this monument? What struggles and agreements are expressed in its material and symbolic form? Through an anthropological and historical methodological approach, empirical evidence shows that although the historical meaning of its form has been reinvented once and again, wounds of memory persist in the material being and social significance of this building. After the aerial bombing suffered on September 11, 1973, the Moneda Palace -repeatedly remodeled and figuratively "laundered"- remains submerged in the ruins of that historical truth. Research concludes that despite the events seeking reparation, acts of symbolic commemoration, numerous mass demonstrations and protests in its front yard, the future remains open for its continued reinvention.

In many Malvinas' War tales, monster apparitions like inhuman beasts, ghosts, zombies, exhausted bodies, etc, are frequent. Commonly they are told in a grotesque way, it means in a mix of comic and tragic but mainly tragic way. So the grotesque becomes in sinister. Even though in a former sight the monsters are characterized by their difference, according to the Freudian conception the sinister is produced because of the coming back of something familiar that became strange in the repression process. Into this frame, in this paper we intend to analize some Malvinas' War tales in order to understand what becomes familiar --and then terrifying-- their monsters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
