Este artículo indaga en el exilio de Remedios Varo a través de nuevas perspectivas que permiten ahondar en los procesos de disrupción y reconstrucción que atraviesa la identidad del sujeto en el exilio. Para ello, se recurre a la concepción antropológica de liminalidad teorizada por Homi K. Bhabha. Este es un estado de tránsito, un espacio en el que acontecen las crisis identitarias y desde el cual el sujeto reformula sus visiones del mundo. Con la finalidad de indagar en ese proceso de reformulación se acude al utillaje teórico de la historia de las emociones, que permite poner el foco en la navegación del tránsito. El rastro de Remedios Varo se compone no solo de sus cuadros –una de las mejores expresiones de su subjetividad y sistema de pensamiento– sino también de cartas, de juegos surrealistas y notas en los márgenes de sus obras a través de las cuales se relaciona con su comunidad. La relación entre expresión subjetiva y emocional abre la vía para un análisis de mayor profundidad sobre el modo en que la identidad se reformula en el exilio.

This article offers the first findings of a broader research about the functioning and configuration of the cultural policy in Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Specifically, it analyzes the case of the Council for Culture and the Arts (Conarte), the only local cultural council that incorporates a shared management between government and civil society. The study responds to a scientific concern to decentralize and regionalize research on cultural policies in Mexico. First, an analysis of Conarte's historical background is made in order to proceed to the study of its creation and first six years of operation (1995-2001). The findings allow to characterize Nuevo Leon's cultural policy model as sui generis, as it presents features typical of the participatory institutions, but also of centralized and arm's lenght models. The methodology employed includes: archival analysis, in-depth interviews and a review of hemerographic sources.

We can find numerous international treaties and legal documents that support women’s choice for safe and legal abortion. However, there are constant different, incompatible and even opposing discourses around abortion globally. This paper examines a 2016 legal case (Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt) to explore how anti-abortion discourse in the U.S. has found its way into the legal text. I begin by addressing women’s right to abortion as a human rights issue and then I investigate how U.S. abortion law entangles with social and cultural reality in the country; I then offer a close reading of the Supreme Court’s judgement and discuss the implications of such a legal text. Public opinions on reproductive rights in the U.S. are closely related to the dynamics between religious culture and feminist activism, and political manipulation leads to divided opinions over the issue. A close reading of the case shows that the court’s constant emphasis on “right to privacy” sets the stage for the current fragility of the reproductive rights in the U.S. cultural and political context. First, it opens a gate for anti-abortion groups to burden women with moral responsibility; second, under TRAP laws it becomes difficult for the abortion providers to justify their stand. I further argue that the undue burden test, which was central to winning this case, is not a strong test for future lawsuits over abortion rights.

Kriser så som pandemin är destruktiva krafter som samtidigt väcker hopp om social förändring. Artikeln handlar om hur denna paradox kan förstås och hur hoppfullhet kan ses som del i den intensifiering av affekt som följer med kriser. Artikeln bygger på kvalitativt material i form av observationer och intervjuer från fältarbete i ett pågående forskningsprojekt som undersöker inriktning och samordning av samhällets resurser i samband med kriser. I analysen beskrivs olika hopp: hopp om att vi blir mer solidariska, hopp om att vi alla kan göra skillnad och kan ställa om, hopp om att staten finns där när vi behöver den och hopp om försvarsvilja där folket sluter upp bakom myndigheterna. Genom att undersöka uttryck som dessa visar artikeln på affekt/diskursiva kamper om vad som står på spel i en kris, vems kris som räknas och hur pandemin tar oss in i framtiden.

Death is a part of the reality that will come to everyone. It is not a silly reality and it is not the reality that ends one’s life, instead the reality carries oneself to the two-dimensional new life. First, dimension of eternal life that is personally lived by oneself and at the same time related to theology and the religion studies. Second, the dimension of social life among the one’s living family and at the same time related to the realm of customs and culture. By the ethnographic methods, this research is more focused on tracing the practices of death rites to uncover the power of death to revive the community. The results of the research show that the death rites are aimed at the organization for better community to live together. Through the death rites, the relatives are asked to be introspective, open, and ready to reconcile with anyone not only with those who are directly in conflict, but also with all people who are potential for conflict as anticipatory actions.

<p>El presente ensayo pretende ser una reflexión sobre los objetos y su capacidad de contener la memoria de lugares, tiempos, identidades. El hilo argumental son las historias que evocan muebles, relojes, pinturas, fotos de un piso de la Barceloneta.<br />A partir de ellas, los tres habitantes de ese espacio reconstruyen partes de sus vidas nómadas, atravesadas por procesos de exilio y migración. Los objetos, con su perdurabilidad, permiten librar la batalla al olvido pero también configurar nuevos<br />espacios y sentidos.</p>

Much ink has been spilled over the conflictive relations between these two countries, and on race relations in the Dominican Republic. Much of what has been said must be considered unfounded or biased, not to mention sensationalist. The books under review try to pro vide new insights into the issue and at the same time to steer clear of these problems.

The article deals with white, male-dominated youth subcultures and their fascination with black expressive cultures. From the early days of jazz to the contemporary hip-hop scene white youth styles in music, dance, clothing and verbal communication have been inspired by black culture. Research in this field has been carried out within the traditions of cultural studies. The basic assumption is that Afro-American and Afro-Caribbean music cultures — in the identity work of white youth — represents a tempting "otherness". The identification with black music and black lifestyles is regarded as a metaphor for resistance and as a search for counter values within the realm of politics, aesthetics and sexuality. The article also discuss how this multi-ethnicity is related to the "new racism" and the youth culture as a whole.

El objetivo principal del presente trabajo es elaborar un esquema explicativo del devenir colonial en la región de Choromoros -provincia de Tucumán- durante el siglo XVII, tratando de identificar las poblaciones aborígenes originarias de la zona y su posterior inserción en la estructura de la conquista. Paralelamente se analizan las características de la ocupación territorial por parte de población indígena y española, su situación demográfica, cultural y política.
