Carlos Aguirre: Alberto Flores Galindo, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A new introduction to the groundbreaking work of one of Latin America's major Marxist thinkers, Alberto Flores Galindo (1949-1990).

Written by two specialists in Peruvian history, this book introduces English readers to his life and work. Flores Galindo wrote several important books on Andean utopianism, José Carlos Mariátegui, subaltern Lima, and more. He also participated in fiery debates on the left about Marxism, democracy, and socialism. In this book, authors cover many of his major topics and contributions, including Peru's rupture with Spanish colonialism, his role as a Marxist public intellectual, his relationship with the Cuban Revolution, the Shining Path and human rights, and his passion for literature.
