Summary

"The Chilean publication of this book and of its companion volume ("Masculine/Feminine") confirmed and advanced Nelly Richard's reputation as one of the foremost critical voices of the age. Richard's brand of cultural critique, informed by a thorough attention to contemporary forms of subjectivity, is unmatched in the force of its theoretical articulation, its aesthetic sensitivity, and its sharp deployment of political strategies. Nelly Richard is today an essential reference for intellectual work in Latin America and beyond."--Alberto Moreiras, author of "The Exhaustion of Difference: The Politics of Latin American Cultural Studies"
