Colonialismo y Derechos Humanos

Autor: Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni

Número de Páginas: 220

Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni encara una historia implacable del patrimonio cultural criminal de la humanidad que hace del colonialismo su hilo conductor y llama a la resistencia y a la lucha por los Derechos Humanos desde el espíritu del Sur. Las feroces atrocidades que, en las formas de subhumanización, explotación, matanza y genocidio, conforman el patrimonio cultural criminal de la humanidad son el punto de partida de este libro que se niega al olvido o a la racionalización y ubica en perspectiva histórica la sucesión de crímenes de los que da prolija cuenta. Historiográficamente preciso, conceptualmente reflexivo y filosóficamente innovador, Zaffaroni propone un recorrido crítico asociado a los múltiples modos en que el colonialismo ha encontrado expresión fáctica, narrativa e ideológica, al tiempo que se pregunta por su relación con los Derechos Humanos, celebrados en su origen como triunfo de la misma civilización que tendió la mano al patriarcado, la misoginia, la discriminación, el racismo y el clasismo. Implacable en su exhumación de mojones de la experiencia criminal mundial que van del descuartizamiento de África al tardocolonialismo financiero...

Spirals in the Caribbean

Spirals in the Caribbean

Autor: Sophie Maríñez

Número de Páginas: 321

An in-depth analysis of literary and cultural productions from Haiti and the Dominican Republic and their diasporas Spirals in the Caribbean responds to key questions elicited by the human rights crisis accelerated in 2013 by the Dominican Constitutional Court’s Ruling 168-13, which denationalized hundreds of thousands of Dominicans of Haitian descent. Spirals details how a paradigm of permanent conflict between the two nations has its roots in reactions to the Haitian Revolution—a conflict between slavers and freedom-seekers—contests over which have been transmitted over generations, repeating with a difference. Anti-Haitian nationalist rhetoric hides this long trajectory. Through the framework of the Spiral, a concept at the core of a Haitian literary aesthetic developed in the 1960s called Spiralism, Sophie Maríñez explores representations of colonial, imperial, and national-era violence. She takes as evidence legislation, private and official letters, oral traditions, collective memories, Afro-indigenous spiritual and musical practices, and works of fiction, plays, and poetry produced across the island and its diasporas from 1791 to 2002. With its emphases on folk...

The Border of Lights Reader

The Border of Lights Reader

Autor: Megan Jeanette Myers , Edward Paulino

Número de Páginas: 347

Border of Lights, a volunteer collective, returns each October to Dominican-Haitian border towns to bear witness to the 1937 Haitian Massacre ordered by Dominican dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo. This crime against humanity has never been acknowledged by the Dominican government and no memorial exists for its victims. A multimodal, multi-vocal space for activists, artists, scholars, and others connected to the BOL movement, The Border of Lights Reader provides an alternative to the dominant narrative that positions Dominicans and Haitians as eternal adversaries and ignores cross-border and collaborative histories. This innovative anthology asks large-scale, universal questions regarding historical memory and revisionism that countries around the world grapple with today. "By bringing together in one volume poetry, visual arts, literary analysis, in-depth interviews and historical analysis this volume will provide its readers with a comprehensive view of the causes and the aftermath of the massacre." —Ramón Antonio Victoriano-Martínez, University of British Columbia Contributions by Julia Alvarez, Amanda Alcántara, DeAndra Beard, Nancy Betances, Jésula Blanc, Matías Bosch ...
