How have sociopolitical fears been enacted, represented and performed in societies marked by repression, conflict and abuse of power? And how has this emotion shaped aesthetic and ideological discourses and cultural productions? Violencia, poder y afectos: narrativas del miedo en Latinoamerica ofrece una contribucion critica al estudio de las representaciones de los miedos sociopoliticos en la literatura y el cine contemporaneos. Este volumen estudia las consecuencias inmediatas y de larga duracion de la violencia y el terror en las sociedades latinoamericanas desde varias perspectivas teoricas. Los capitulos del libro abordan dos preguntas centrales: ?como se han asumido, asimilado y representado los diversos temores sociopoliticos que caracterizan a unas sociedades marcadas por el conflicto, la represion y el abuso de poder? y ?como este afecto ha marcado los discursos esteticos e ideologicos de las producciones culturales? Mediante el estudio de las obras de escritores y productores culturales contemporaneos incluso Monica Ojeda, Cristina Rivera Garza, Rodrigo Rey Rosa, Alonso Cueto y Manlio Argueta, los colaboradores de este libro examinan el clima de terror y ansiedad provocados por las guerras civiles en Guatemala, El Salvador y Peru; la guerra de las drogas en Mexico; la invasion estadounidense a Panama en 1989; asi como las dinamicas de desigualdad de clase y genero en Ecuador y Mexico. Violencia, poder y afectos: narrativas del miedo en Latinoamerica offers a critical contribution to studies of the representation of socio-politically inflicted fears in contemporary literature and film. This volume looks at the immediate and long-lasting consequences of violence and terror in Latin American societies from a variety of theoretical perspectives. Chapters of the book engage with two central questions: How have sociopolitical fears been enacted, represented and performed in societies marked by repression, conflict and abuse of power? And how has this emotion shaped aesthetic and ideological discourses and cultural productions? Looking at contemporary writers and cultural producers including Monica Ojeda, Cristina Rivera Garza, Rodrigo Rey Rosa, Alonso Cueto and Manlio Argueta, the contributors of this volume examine the climate of terror and anxiety resulting from the civil wars in Guatemala, El Salvador and Peru; the war on drugs in Mexico; the 1989 U.S. invasion of Panama; and dynamics of class and gender power imbalances in Ecuador and Mexico.
