THE RISE OF THE FAR RIGHT IN LATIN AMERICA
Gabriel Bayarri Toscano (RJC): “A Good Bandit is a Dead Bandit”: Memetic Violence and AI on the Latin American Right-Wing Populism. Henning Suhr on how Latin America’s party landscape shifts to the right. Claudia Hernandez on social reproduction, memory and the far right in Chile. Juan Gabriel Tokatlian: “If Peru, Colombia, and Brazil shift to the right, the US will have the bulk of Latin America under its influence”. Clau O’Brien Moscoso on Fujimorismo 2.0: The age of Keiko Fujimori. Why does Fujimorism still haunt Peru? Colombia joins the rise of the far right in Latin America. What if the right fails? The right is losing support across Latin America—but that alone will not bring the left back to power. The open access book The Far Right in Latin America (Cambridge) by Cristobal Rovira Kaltwasser (UC Chile), Carlos Melendez (Lisbon), Talita Tanscheit (PUC Rio)and Lisa Zanotti (CEU) is now out.
