They sought urban communities’ sympathy with the revolutionary process through the knowledge they had acquired in their professional training, which they adapted to fit the political context of their country. Rueda’s book transcends the student scenario. Her history resembles a carefully prepared theatrical staging, in which her actors progressively take the floor and position themselves in a leading role, despite walking on a stage of violence and political repression. This scene presents the student movement as a collective actor, in which women and men alike used their youth to oppose their dictators for four decades. Those interested in Students of Revolution will not just find the history of a single country. Instead, Rueda’s book also reflects the influence of the United States, thus offering a complete history of the Cold War− a history that does not focus on a generation of young people united in a revolution, but on a culture of youthful dissidence, inherited over four decades and which gave life to the last revolutionary process of the Cold War in a fervent territory like Central America.","PeriodicalId":51630,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48909550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Coastal Lives would be of interest to scholars of anthropology, sociology, geography and Latin American studies who are engaged with theories of globalisation, capitalism, neoliberalism, inequality and commons theory. While debates around the commons are not necessarily central to the book’s purpose, it makes an important contribution to scholarship on the commons. It advances novel theoretical insights into asymmetrical power relations that underlie claims and contests over modernisation, symbolic dispossession, and its implications for social justice and equity. The authors draw attention to disparities in wealth, privilege, power, political participation, and disenfranchisement with careful analysis of its implications. Such processes illuminated by a focus on coastal lives are not necessarily unique to Peru.","PeriodicalId":51630,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48784053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the 1840s, prompted by aspirations of capital expansion and racist civilising discourses against Indigenous savagery, Chilean authorities transformed parlamentos, from diplomatic instances to meetings with compliant Mapuche leaders where treaties with conditions set by Chilean governments were signed. As Herr convincingly argues, the new treaties justified the military invasion of Wallmapu not as a war of conquest that would require peace agreements and future reparations, but as the appeasement of borderlands ideally followed by concessions to Indigenous people under the terms and conditions set by the state, such as the limited recognition of land ownership rights within the small space of reservations (reducciones). Rolf Foerster’s ¿Pactos de sumisión o actos de rebelión? (Pehuén, 2018) and Fernando Pairican’s Toqui: Guerra y tradición en el siglo XIX (Pehuén, 2020)−monographs on Indigenous-state relations not available at the time of writing of Contested Nation− focus on how Mapuche customary diplomacy was deployed in response to the increasingly aggressive and authoritarian stance of Chilean governments. These works open the possibility that, while the signing of treaties entailed an overall Mapuche submission to the Chilean state, negotiations with future conquerors provided the means through which the Mapuche population ensured its cultural survival, threatened by the prospect of extermination and animated claims of autonomy and self-governance that would later in the twentieth century inspire the consolidation of a large and diverse Mapuche social movement. Beyond the success of Chilean violent colonisation, can Mapuche diplomatic engagement with the Chilean state also reveal a possible failure of the nineteenth-century Chilean elite’s project of complete assimilation and eradication of Mapuche anticolonial aspiration? (See Pairican, Toqui (2020), p. 281.) Herr’s book points to the possibility of a new way of thinking about diplomacy and colonial violence in the nineteenth century that will continue to catch the attention of historians of state formation in Latin America.","PeriodicalId":51630,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Latin American Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41844592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
