The Politics of Exile in Latin America addresses exile as a major
mechanism of institutional exclusion used by all types of
governments in the region against their own citizens, while they
often provided asylum to aliens fleeing persecution. The work is
the first systematic analysis of Latin American exile on a
continental and transnational basis and on a long-term perspective.
It traces variations in the saliency of exile among different
expelling and receiving countries; across different periods; with
different paths of exile, both elite and massive; and under
authoritarian and democratic contexts. The project integrates
theoretical hindsight and empirical findings, analyzing the
importance of exile as a recent and contemporary phenomenon, while
reaching back to its origins and phases of development. It also
addresses presidential exile, the formation of Latin American
communities of exiles worldwide, and the role of exiles in shaping
the collective identities of these countries.
