Hybrid Cultures:

Strategies For Entering And Leaving Modernity
Front Cover
2 Reviews
University of MINNESOTA Press, 2005 - Social Science - 293 pages
When it was originally published, Hybrid Cultures was foundational to Latin American cultural studies. This now-classic work features a new introduction in which Nestor Garcia Canclini calls for a cultural politics to contain the damaging effects of globalization and responds to relevant theoretical developments over the past decade.Garcia Canclini questions whether Latin America can compete in a global marketplace without losing its cultural identity. He moves with ease from the ideas of Gramsci and Foucault to economic analysis, from appraisals of the exchanges between Octavio Paz and Jorge Luis Borges to Chicano film and grafitti. Hybrid Cultures at once clarifies the development of democratic institutions in Latin America and reveals that the most destructive ideological trends are still going strong.

Review: Hybrid Cultures: Strategies for Entering and Leaving Modernity

User Review  - Xarah - Goodreads

The couple chapters I read weren't too bad, though the chapters assigned weren't in chronological order, so I was occasionally lost. I might pick this up and try reading it again ... though, I have a strong feeling that this won't happen. Read full review

Review: Hybrid Cultures: Strategies for Entering and Leaving Modernity

User Review  - Jason Williams - Goodreads

Yet another Latin American counterpoint to relativize "the West." "Modernity" is but a blip on one of the many possible maps of time. Democratize experience, not just art. Read full review
