Contemporary culture: A new definition of the centre and the periphery

Where are the new intellectual debates arising, in the center or on the margins? Is there reason to hope or is humanity declining into lawlessness? Affonso Romano de Sant’Anna, poet, essayist, and scholar of literature, casts a glance at the astonishing current developments in the political landscape of Latin America, whose consequences are not yet foreseeable: an Indigena governs Bolivia, a woman Chile, a former factory worker Brazil.
