Academic and research fields are moved by fads, waves,
revolutionaries, paradigm shifts, and turns. They all imply a
certain degree of change that alters the conditions of a stable
system, producing an imbalance that needs to be addressed by the
field itself. New Approaches to Latin American Studies: Culture and
Power offers researchers and students from different theoretical
fields an essential, turn-organized overview of the radical
transformation of epistemological and methodological assumptions in
Latin American Studies from the end of the 1980s to the present.
Sixteen chapters written by experts in their respective fields help
explain the various ways in which to think about these shifts.
Questions posited include: Why are turns so crucial? How did they
alter the shape or direction of the field? What new questions,
objects, or problems did they contribute? What were or are their
limitations? What did they displace or prevent us from considering?
Among the turns included are: memory, transnational, popular
culture, decolonial, feminism, affect, indigenous studies,
transatlantic, ethical, post/hegemony, deconstruction, cultural
policy, subalternism, gender and sexuality, performance, and
cultural studies.
