Resumen:
In the 1980s and 1990s, neoliberal forms of governance largely dominated Latin American political and social life. Neoliberalism, Interrupted
examines the recent and diverse proliferation of responses to
neoliberalism's hegemony. In so doing, this vanguard collection of case
studies undermines the conventional dichotomies used to understand
transformation in this region, such as neoliberalism vs. socialism,
right vs. left, indigenous vs. mestizo, and national vs. transnational. Deploying
both ethnographic research and more synthetic reflections on meaning,
consequence, and possibility, the essays focus on the ways in which a
range of unresolved contradictions interconnect various projects for
change and resistance to change in Latin America. Useful to students and
scholars across disciplines, this groundbreaking volume reorients how
sociopolitical change has been understood and practiced in Latin
America. It also carries important lessons for other parts of the world
with similar histories and structural conditions.
