She examines four main topics: the place of indigenous peoples in postcolonial nation-states; the impact of development on the Latin American political imagination; the impact of being economically dependent within a global capitalist order; and the turn to populism as a particular political response to these various challenges. Svampa traces each debate's genealogy, contextualizes them over the course of the twentieth century, and demonstrates how intellectual and sociological currents have redefined and reshaped them in the twenty-first. Svampa also maps the tensions in each and shows how they influence contemporary Latin American politics. By focusing on indigeneity, development, dependency, and populism, Svampa provides a clear entry point to understand the most pressing issues confronting Latin America while showcasing how the region's intellectuals have been thinking about and debating these issues in ways that generate social theory with global implications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maristella Svampa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Latin America in Translation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.92d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478031949","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45265350688905,"sku":"9781478031949","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_845c84e0-6170-4abc-ab01-1b045cbe04ba.jpg?v=1771311913","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/latin-america-in-debate-indigeneity-development-dependency-populism-9781478031949","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
