Description: Darkening Nation : Race, Neoliberalism and Crisis in Argentina, Paperback by Aguiló, Ignacio, ISBN 1786832216, ISBN-13 9781786832214, Brand New, Free shipping in the US At the turn of the twenty-first century, Argentina was in the midst of its worst economic crisis in decades, the result of years of drastic neoliberal reforms. This book looks at the way ideas about race and nationhood were conveyed during this period of financial meltdown and national emergency, examining in particular how the neoliberal crisis led to the critical self-questioning of the dominant imaginary of Argentina as homogenously white&;allegedly the result of European immigration and the extinction of most indigenous and black people in the nation building age. The Darkening Nation focuses on how the self-examination of racial and national identity triggered by this crisis was expressed in culture, through the analysis of literary texts, films, artworks and music styles. By considering a wide range of artistic and cultural products, and different forms of racial identity and difference, this study constitutes a timely addition from a literary and cultural studies perspective to recent academic inquiry into race and nation in Argentina.
