Posthegemony: Political Theory and Latin America
Jon Beasley-Murray
A challenging new work of cultural and political theory rethinks the concept of hegemony
Posthegemony is an investigation into the origins, limits, and possibilities for contemporary politics and political analysis. Challenging dominant strains in social theory, Jon Beasley-Murray contends that cultural studies simply replicates the populism that conditions it, and that civil society theory merely nourishes the neoliberalism that it sets out to oppose.
“In Posthegemony, Jon Beasley-Murray provides a superbly written and insightful theoretical evaluation of the shifting relation between culture and state in Latin America.”
-Gareth Williams, author of The Other Side of the Popular: Neoliberalism and Subalternity in Latin America
