Accounting for Violence offers bold new perspectives on the politics of memory in Latin America. Scholars from across the humanities and social sciences provide in-depth analyses of the political economy of memory in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, and Uruguay, countries that emerged from authoritarian rule in the 1980s and 1990s. The contributors take up issues of authenticity and commodification, as well as the “never again” imperative implicit in memory goods and memorial sites. They describe how bookstores, cinemas, theaters, the music industry, and television shows (and their commercial sponsors) trade in testimonial and fictional accounts of the authoritarian past; how tourist itineraries have come to include trauma sites and memorial museums; and how memory studies has emerged as a distinct academic field profiting from its own journals, conferences, book series, and courses. The memory market, described in terms of goods, sites, producers, marketers, consumers, and patrons, presents a paradoxical situation. On the one hand, commodifying memory potentially cheapens it. On the other hand, too little public exposure may limit awareness of past human-rights atrocities; such awareness may help to prevent their recurring.Contributors. Rebecca J. Atencio, Ksenija Bilbija, Jo-Marie Burt, Laurie Beth Clark, Cath Collins, Susana Draper, Nancy Gates-Madsen, Susana Kaiser, Cynthia E. Milton, Alice A. Nelson, Carmen Oquendo Villar, Leigh A. Payne, JosÉ RamÓn RuisÁnchez Serra, Maria Eugenia Ulfe

Montañas and three or four ríos es una antología bilingüe en español e inglés que celebra y amplifica las voces de escritores ganadores del Premio Ciudad y Naturaleza José Emilio Pacheco, un galardón cuyo objetivo es el de promover la reflexión humana sobre la interrelación entre lo urbano y la naturaleza. El valor de esta selección de textos es que también nos regala ensayos elocuentes y reveladores desde las perspectivas de cuatro mujeres: Ksenija Bilbija, Sarli E. Mercado, Kata Beilin y Lori DiPrete Brown, provenientes de cuatro países en Europa del Este, América Central y del Norte, que nos ayudan a contextualizar los poemas y cuentos premiados en los procesos que vivimos en estos tiempos.
