Abstract

Horas antes del cierre de su campana electoral, en 2015, el candidato presidencial Mauricio Macri rindio culto a la Pachamama y eligio dar su ultimo discurso en la Quebrada de Humahuaca. De la ceremonia participaron tambien miembros de pueblos originarios y referentes politicos locales. Al cerrar, el candidato pidio a la madre tierra "sabiduria y fortaleza para conducir al pueblo argentino por el buen camino". Dias mas tarde, ya electo presidente, se refirio a la Argentina como "uno de los paises del mundo con mas espiritu emprendedor, y hay una razon: nuestros abuelos, nuestros padres vinieron en barco buscando una oportunidad, y construyeron esa etapa maravillosa de la Argentina. Nos toca a nosotros tomar esa posta" -- Esta aparente paradoja confirma lo complejo y desafiante que es pesquisar como operan las ideas de multiculturalismo en pleno siglo XXI y como circulan ideas y proyectos interculturales en un pais donde conviven, con singular potencia, los relatos de la migracion ultramarina y la (auto)percepcion nacional de un eurocentrismo blanco.

Abstract

"From Idols to Antiquity explores the origins and tumultuous development of the National Museum of Mexico and the complicated histories of Mexican antiquities during the first half of the nineteenth century. Following independence from Spain, the National Museum of Mexico was founded in 1825 by presidential decree. Nationhood meant cultural as well as political independence, and the museum was expected to become a repository of national objects whose stories would provide the nation with an identity and teach its people to become citizens. Miruna Achim reconstructs the early years of the museum as an emerging object shaped by the logic and goals of historical actors who soon found themselves debating the origin of American civilizations, the nature of the American races, and the rightful ownership of antiquities. Achim also brings to life an array of fascinating characters--antiquarians, naturalists, artists, commercial agents, bureaucrats, diplomats, priests, customs officers, local guides, and academics on both sides of the Atlantic--who make visible the rifts and tensions intrinsic to the making of the Mexican nation and its cultural politics in the country's postcolonial era."--
