Klappentext Drawing on diverse theoretical perspectives on conviviality, this book considers the ways in which Latin America, a continent marked by deep inequalities, has managed to afford, create, sustain, and contest forms of living together with difference across time and space. Interdisciplinary in approach and presenting studies from various nations across the continent - from the medieval period to the present day - it considers the ways in which Latin America might contribute to our understanding of the relationship between inequality, difference, diversity, and sociability. As such, it will appeal to scholars of history, sociology, geography, anthropology, development studies, postcolonial and social theory with interests in Latin American studies, and in the contingencies and contradictions of living together in profoundly unequal societies. Zusammenfassung Drawing on diverse theoretical perspectives on conviviality, this volume considers the ways in which Latin America has managed to sustain forms of living together with difference across time and space, presenting studies that shed new light on our understanding of the relationship between inequality, difference and sociability.
