Cultural Residues
By: Richard, Nelly; Quester, Theodore; West-Durán, Alan
Published by: University of Minnesota Press
A portrait of postdictatorial Chile by one of that country’s most incisive cultural critics, Cultural Residues uses memoirs, photographs, art, and novels—the “residues” of a culture—to analyze the political-cultural Chilean landscape in the wake of Augusto Pinochet’s seventeen-year military rule. According to Nelly Richard, such residual areas reveal the flaws in Chile’s transition from violent dictatorship to electoral democracy.

Decolonial Voices
By: Aldama, Arturo J. (ed.); Quiñonez, Naomi H. (ed.)
Published by: Indiana University Press
The interdisciplinary essays in this volume discuss racialized, subaltern, feminist, and diasporic identities and the aesthetic politics of hybrid and mestiza/o cultural productions. The collection represents several key directions in the field: first, it charts how subaltern cultural productions of US/Mexico borderlands speak to the intersections of 'local', 'hemispheric', and 'globalized' power relations of the border imaginary. Second, it recovers the Mexican women's and Chicana literary and cultural heritages ignored by Euro-American canons and patriarchal exclusionary practices.

Diaspora & Hybridity
By: Kalra, Virinder S; Kaur, R; Hutnyk, J
Published by: Sage Publications, Ltd (UK)
This book is an exhaustive, politically inflected, assessment of the key debates on diaspora and hybridity. It relates the topics to contemporary social struggles and cultural contexts, providing the reader with a framework to evaluate and displace the key ideological arguments, theories and narratives deployed in culturalist academic circles today. The authors demonstrate how diaspora and hybridity serve as problematic tools, cutting across traditional boundaries of nations and groups, where trans-national spaces for a range of contested cultural, political and economic outcomes might arise.
