En las sociedades contemporáneas constatamos un estado de desigualdad social como en el viejo régimen: la acumulación de la riqueza en el 1% de la población, multimillonarios como presidentes, el aumento en el consumo de lujo, el surgimiento de una cultura de distinción, así como la concentración de la tierra y la segregación espacial. Para comprender estos fenómenos en un marco interpretativo coherente, este ensayo plantea la hipótesis de que en el temprano siglo XXI vivimos una nueva combinación de refeudalización a nivel global, pero con rasgos regionales específicos. En América Latina este concepto es particularmente útil para entender el regreso de la derecha al poder después de una época de gobiernos de izquierda.

Weltweit ist eine Konjunktur der Refeudalisierung zu verzeichnen: Milliardäre werden Staatspräsidenten, der Luxuskonsum steigt ebenso dramatisch an wie soziale Ungleichheiten und es entsteht eine Kultur politischer und sozio-ökonomischer Abschottung. In Lateinamerika ist diese Tendenz zudem mit einem markanten Rechtsruck in der politischen Sphäre verbunden, der - symbolisiert im Aufstieg weißer, reicher Männer - Indigene, Arme und Feministen zunehmend diffamiert. Mit seiner Refeudalisierungs-Hypothese liefert Olaf Kaltmeier einen kohärenten Interpretationsrahmen, um die Phänomene des Gesellschaftswandels verständlich zu machen, die wir im frühen 21. Jahrhundert global durchleben und die in Lateinamerika ganz spezifische regionale Ausdrucksformen annehmen. »Ein gelungener Essay, der den polit-ökonomischen Hintergrund des zeitgenössischen Lateinamerika beleuchtet.« Jürgen Kreuzroither, lateinamerika anders, 3 (2020) »Auch wenn dieses Buch nur eine Weltregion analysiert, hilft es, die weltweiten Tendenzen des Kapitalismus besser zu verstehen.« Adrián Villa, graswurzelrevolution, 450 (2020) »In seinem frisch erschienenen Lang-Essay entwirft Olaf Kaltmeier [...] eine Hypothese, die auf instruktive Weise historische, (kultur-)soziologische, stadtgeografische und ökonomische Ansätze zusammenbringt. Selbst Überlegungen aus der Critical-Whiteness-Debatte werden thematisiert.« Britt Weyde, ila 436 (2020) Besprochen in: https://tagebuch.at, 30.06.2020, Tobias Boss

The first national parks in Latin America were established in Argentina, among them the Nahuel Huapi, the Iguazu Falls or the Perito Moreno Glacier. These natural reserves are established in a transnational entangled space where ideas, imaginations, people, biota and artefacts circulate. The idea of Argentinian national parks has been influenced by various approaches, ranging from the US-American parking policy to the French landscape architecture and the Prussian sustainable forestry to international debates about nature conservation. While national parks are now considered a haven of wilderness, the contemporary interpretation in the first half of the 20th century has been more open. The notion has prevailed in Argentina to perceive national parks as “genuine instruments of colonisation”. Agricultural colonization and displacement of indigenous people, comprehensive programmes for urbanization and touristification of the landscape as well as biological colonisation through salmons, deer, and Douglas firs form an integral part of the Argentinian parking policy. Thus, the connection between nature conservation and colonisation will be examined in this book by asking the following question: How do national parks work?

Spurred by a new wave of protests around the world - from the Occupy movement, Black Lives Matter, the Arab Spring, and the various street marches against neoliberal governments throughout Latin America - Raussert examines how artistic practices in the Americas have challenged the control of public space in relation to gender, race, sexuality, class, and age in three periods (the 1920s and 1930s, the 1960s and 1970s, and the new millennium). This inter-American perspective sheds light on common utopian aspirations across time and space, as in the networked movements of indigenous, African-descended and the diasporic groups, epitomized by the Zapatista slogan: “Mientras los medios de comunicación sigan mintiendo, las paredes seguirán hablando” (As long as the media continues to lie, the walls will continue to talk). Indeed, this must-read book shows how contesting artists subvert the increasing privatization, consumerization and electronic monitoring of public space and its virtualization in the new media in our own time period. | George Yúdice (Professor of Latin American Studies and Modern Literature at the University of Miami, U.S.A.)
