Conclusion

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

In the conclusion, I argue for the continuing need to read Southern Cone and Latin American cultural politics as a case of the continual formation and reformation of communities through the logics of individuation. Understanding the logical frame of subjectivity helps scholars and students conceive of both politics and literature as maps for group and individual belonging. It is imperative to reimagine the relationship between ethics, the public sphere, and the literary, given the continual incursion of neoliberalism upon the realms of collective identity, political meaning, and literature. My conclusion argues for a new ethics of reading and writing that is based on the specific as an actual identity: the identity of a Latin America working against neoliberalism composed of an ethical movement that can construct its own name and identity in a determinate fashion.
