Description: The texts compiled in this book attempt to offer an interpretation under a new light of the work of José Carlos Mariátegui, undoubtedly one of the most brilliant and controversial representatives of Latin American thought. Strongly rooted in its historical moment, Mariátegui's work has nevertheless gained visibility in different ways and at different stages in the thought and political praxis of Latin America. This volume, an essential reference tool, returns to the work of the Peruvian thinker to question it from new perspectives opened up by cultural studies and post-colonial theory.
