Achieving global fame in 1927, Nicaragua’s General Augusto César Sandino came to symbolize and unite international solidarity movements against US imperialism by cultivating a sophisticated transnational intellectual network that encompassed communications, public relations, intelligence, provisions, volunteers, and fundraising. The participation of male public intellectuals in Sandino’s strategic communications is well documented, but the roles of intellectual women in the rebellion have not been appreciably explored to date. Bringing to light new archival research on the Nicaraguan poets and journalists Carmen Sobalvarro and Aura Rostand, this article examines how their gendered writing and public personae propagated both Sandino’s war and his legacy after his 1934 assassination. As part of an informal network of women intellectuals, Sobalvarro and Rostand played integral roles in Sandino’s public relations in Nicaragua and abroad. As Sandino has once again become a contested figure in light of Nicaragua’s oppressive Ortega-Murillo government, this recuperative cultural study also bears on present-day Nicaraguan political discourse.

Este artículo analiza Todos los negros tomamos café (1976) de la narradora cubana Mirta Yáñez como un ejemplo de escritura que celebra la experimentación y que entra en tensión con los moldes estéticos dominantes en la literatura cubana posrevolucionaria. Particularmente, exploro la estratégica posicionalidad de una enunciación polifónica y fragmentada como espacio de contestación a las certezas desde las que se construyeron las narrativas testimoniales. Sugiero que la narrativa de Yáñez se proyecta como una lúcida interrogación acerca de la posición de las escritoras cubanas en un medio que se rehusaba a incorporar voces disidentes, aun cuando la disidencia se manifestara en el plano de la experimentación y la exploración estética. Deslizándose desde los márgenes creados por las normas y políticas de producción cultural, Yáñez configura una narrativa en la que la palabra asume plenamente su calidad de artefacto estético.

En la primera parte de este artículo trazaremos la genealogía de la razón comunal indígena, la cual busca rastrear las condiciones de emergencia, existencia y transformaciones discursivas y de poder que hicieron posible plantear teóricamente la comunalidad como forma de vida de los pueblos indios en Oaxaca, México. Posteriormente, haremos dialogar el pensamiento comunal indígena con el giro descolonial latinoamericano, para examinar los aportes que puede generar la comunalidad en el diseño de una salida viable a la crisis civilizatoria del actual sistema-mundo moderno-colonial-capitalista. Finalmente, vamos a analizar los alcances epistémicos y políticos de la opción comunal para contribuir a la descolonización de las ciencias sociales y la construcción inter-civilizatoria del pluriversalismo transmoderno descolonial como nuevo proyecto universal de vida.

This article argues for a decolonial response to elite understandings of the Nicaraguan folk play El Güegüense, highlighting a reading of Indigenous survivance. It examines the work from a perspective that seeks to eliminate the colonial interpretations placed on it by elite writers, thinkers, and nation builders. Through a review of the literature on the play, associated cultural expressions, and personal experiences and understandings, this article evaluates the work as a product of Indigenous culture and mentality rather than a product of mestizaje or other colonial forces. An analysis of the play’s dialogue, imagery, and dances is coupled with an Indigenous Chorotega perspective that demonstrates the spiritual significance of the work, in a discussion that seeks to lift the voices of Indigenous peoples of Pacific, North, and Central Nicaragua.

This article is a close reading of Salvador Elizondo’s “Grünewalda, o una fábula del infinito” (1969), a short story from the collection El retrato de Zoe y otras mentiras. Elizondo purposely mirrors in “Grünewalda” a turbulent chapter in the history of mathematics—the turn of the nineteenth century—when this discipline went through a profound crisis. The article shows how Elizondo skillfully crafts a literary version of a process of arithmetization of writing, as taken from the basics of set theory, and how this process helps to discern the level-changing operators in “Grünewalda” and in all of Elizondo’s texts. Given that mathematical knowledge is merely verbal knowledge, Grünewalda’s life and death problems are syntactic and semantic in principle. Thus, beyond ascribing his rhetoric to a metaphysical sphere, a metamathematical realm is presented as a more adequate depiction of Elizondo’s writing.

Este artículo examina cómo en el Ejército Colombiano, específicamente en la Escuela de Soldados Profesionales (ESPRO), fundada con el objetivo de profesionalizar a los soldados colombianos, coexisten diferentes narrativas en las que adquiere vida el proceso educativo militar. Este artículo muestra cómo en ellas se construye el guerrero ideal, cómo esta construcción tiene un vínculo con el pasado independentista y cómo, se da vida a las funciones de la ESPRO y a los medios usados para educar a los soldados. Nos ocuparemos también de cómo los soldados, exalumnos de la Escuela, definen la profesionalización. El artículo se basa en una investigación etnográfica conducida en el 2016 en la ESPRO, financiada por la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de los Andes, Colombia.

Antes del desarrollo de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación, existían narrativas que no solo ficcionalizaban la influencia de las nuevas mediaciones, sino que se inspiraban en el lenguaje del cine para proponer una experiencia sensorial de lectura distinta. Con las tecnologías digitales, esta experimentación literaria se potencializa. La naturaleza y el lenguaje de estas tecnologías han ampliado lo que primero fue imaginado y ensayado en el formato impreso. Para establecer una continuidad entre las apariciones intermediales de la imagen en movimiento en la narrativa impresa y las posibilidades de efectuación de esa intermedialidad en la literatura digital, se examinará la influencia de la estética visual del cine en dos cuentos del uruguayo Horacio Quiroga y una novela corta del colombiano José Félix Fuenmayor. Este análisis también estudiará dos novelas digitales, Pentagonal: Incluidos tú y yo de Carlos Labbé y Lagunas de Milton Laüfer.

El artículo analiza cuál es el tipo de conocimiento o verdad que se construye en el marco de un proceso penal por violaciones a los derechos humanos cometidas en un contexto dictatorial, y cómo este aporta al existente sobre los crímenes, sus víctimas y los responsables. La intención es analizar el proceso de larga duración en el que se juzgan los crímenes cometidos durante la última dictadura en Argentina (1976–1983). Particularmente, la causa penal por los delitos de la Escuela de Mecánica de la Armada (ESMA), donde funcionó uno de los más grandes centros clandestinos de detención del periodo. Se analizarán el segundo y tercer juicio de la causa (2009–2017) y la producción de conocimiento en relación a tres temas: 1) la violencia de género; 2) la división de los sobrevivientes y su utilización como mano de obra esclava; 3) los vuelos de la muerte. Se partirá del supuesto de que, si bien los crímenes cometidos en la ESMA fueron ampliamente descritos en los mecanismos transicionales del país y en materiales posteriores, los avances en las investigaciones y las condiciones de la producción de la evidencia en un proceso penal contribuyeron a que existan aportes específicos y novedosos.

During the almost constant political turmoil of the 1970s up to Raúl Alfonsín’s election in 1983, classical music in Buenos Aires was arguably one of the most stable domains of cultural life in Argentina. If this applies to public institutions such as the Teatro Colón, it is even truer of private concert associations like the Mozarteum Argentino, whose president Jeannette Arata de Erize remained in charge from 1955 until her death in 2013. Under the dictatorship of 1976–1983, the Mozarteum concerts were supported by leading economic groups like Techint, whose CEO, Roberto Rocca, was a member of the board of directors, as was the minister of Economy, José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz. Politics, though, were totally absent from the association’s life. This apoliticism, derived from the Romantic era, strengthened the cohesion of the upper classes while converging with the alleged apolitical nature of the military regime itself.

Since General Augusto Pinochet’s detention in 1998, an unprecedented number of human rights trials has taken place across Latin America. The main source of evidence employed in these proceedings are victims’ testimonies: in fact, records documenting human rights violations are generally unavailable, having either been destroyed or hidden. When archives do exist, they do not usually identify individual perpetrators or victims, nor do they directly establish criminal responsibility. This article focuses on two criminal trials that unfolded in Argentina and Italy and closely probed the atrocities of Operation Condor. It contends that archival documents only contain remnants of truth and fragments of evidence. These slivers have to be interpreted, contextualized, and sometimes even questioned in order to render them relevant and useful to criminal investigations of past atrocities. Specifically, the article deconstructs the role that different trial actors—including public and private prosecutors, archivists, experts, witnesses, lawyers, and judges—played in the courtroom, engaging in proactive efforts to piece together the evidence that archival records possess and activating their content.

En Chile, desde los inicios de la república, las amnistías después de guerras civiles y conflictos violentos fueron el fundamento de la reconciliación política. La transición política iniciada en 1990 se propuso establecer la verdad sobre las violaciones de los derechos humanos cometidas durante la dictadura, reconocer y reparar a las víctimas y hacer justicia en la medida de lo posible, a pesar de la vigencia de la amnistía de 1978. En este artículo se analiza la evolución de diversas instancias del proceso de justicia transicional y la lucha contra la impunidad que es la experiencia de las víctimas de la tortura y sus familias. El caso de Haydee Oberreuter nos permite examinar las posibilidades, resultados y limitaciones de los procesos judiciales en relación con las demandas de justicia y reparación de las víctimas de tortura.
