In her examination, she demonstrates that these connections posed a challenge to existing racial hierarchies in Spanish America by celebrating a new kind of national self at the same time that they contributed to new forms of subjection and discrimination. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoing beyond debates about the relative merits of indigenismo and mestizaje, Tarica puts forward a new perspective on indigenista literature and modern mestizo identities by revealing how these ideologies are symptomatic of the dilemmas of national subject formation. The Inner Life of Mestizo Nationalism offers insight into the contemporary resurgence and importance of indigenista discourses in Latin America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEstelle Tarica is associate professor of Latin American literature and culture at the University of California, Berkeley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Estelle Tarica\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0816650055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780816650057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Minnesota Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.36w x 0.68d","brand":"Estelle Tarica","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059858829567,"sku":"9780816650057","price":25.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f415db9-e731-4bb7-ad62-b32d5a6dd2cd.jpg?v=1685060734","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-inner-life-of-mestizo-estelle-tarica-9780816650057","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
