From the Publisher
“This is a timely intervention into a growing debate in Latin American cultural studies. It is particularly valuable due to the geographical breadth of its scope and its attention to aesthetic strategies across a wide range of different media. Essential reading for students and scholars interested in Latin American science fiction and speculative aesthetics, posthumanism and the environmental humanities.”
—Edward King, Associate Professor, University of Bristol, UK
“This book explores for the first time Latin American posthumanism from the Global South. It is a proposal that appeals to us from the point of view of (techno)(cyber) corporealities that form the normative world-systems of globalization and offer dissident alternatives. A collection of brilliant essays that offer a melting pot of categories and typologies of science fiction, from neoliberal posthumanism to feminist critical posthumanism. A lucid reflection on inequalities based on ethnicity, class, gender, sex and sexuality. A publication of reference that shows that the heartbeat of the twenty-first century is posthuman, and that everything posthuman is political.”
