Hannibal Quijano and Nicholas Lynch
Hannibal Quijano: Issues and horizons. From historical-structural dependency to the coloniality/decoloniality of power
This Essential Anthology is conceived as an open laboratory for the thought of Aníbal Quijano and the way in which it has interacted with the crucial events of our recent history, enabling, for five decades, readings that have transformed our understanding of Latin American history and contemporary life. This selection recovers a body of work in which Quijano analyzes power relations in our societies, the historical-structural nature of Latin American dependency, his concerns regarding Peruvian history and social thought, and includes his theorization of the coloniality of the current global power structure and the struggle for its decoloniality.
Nicholas LynchTowards a critique of democracy in Latin America
In this book, Nicolás Lynch analyzes the development of the debate over the meaning of democracy in Latin America. The thesis presented here argues for the need to adopt a social democratization that reclaims citizen mobilization, public services, and public spaces as crucial elements for building an alternative to confront the general crises caused, to a large extent, by greed and rampant individualism.
