Examining three tropes in contemporary Colombian media-beauty, citizenship, and sex-the book draws out the historical significance of ideals of the body in the nation-building process since independence with a focus on the twenty-first century. Taking the Miss Colombia pageant as a starting point for the contextualization of beauty politics, Isis Giraldo seriously engages with the \"men's magazine\" \u003ci\u003eSoHo\u003c\/i\u003e, popular telenovelas, and mainstream periodicals in manufacturing consent for patriarchal, postfeminist understandings of subjectivity, national belonging, and sexual liberation. \u003ci\u003eRegimes of Colombianidad \u003c\/i\u003edecenters and provincializes northern debates about postfeminism while globalizing Latin American decolonial critique. In Giraldo's reading, postfeminism functions less as a sensibility than as a global technology of colonial power that spans the political spectrum, enacting coloniality across both its liberal and conservative ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Isis Giraldo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798855808582\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d","brand":"Isis Giraldo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997417976063,"sku":"9798855808582","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/regimes-of-colombianidad-isis-giraldo-9798855808582","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
