Drawing upon the Colombian interdisciplinary field of violence studies known as \u003cem\u003eviolentolog?\u003c\/em\u003e, which examines the transformation of Colombian society during a century of political and interpersonal violence, this book adapts the neologism \"violentology\" as a heuristic device and epistemic category to map the salience of violence in Latina\/o history, life, and culture in the U.S. and globally. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBased on one hundred primary texts and archival documents from an expansive range of Latina\/o communities - Chicana\/o, Puerto Rican, Cuban American, Dominican American, Salvadoran American, Guatemalan American, and various mixed-heritages and transversal hybridities throughout the world - Violentologies features multiple generations of Latinx combatants, wartime non-combatants, and \"peacetime\" civilians whose identities and ideologies extend through, and also far beyond, familiar Latinidades. Based on this discrepant archive, \u003cem\u003eViolentologies\u003c\/em\u003e articulates a contrapuntal assessment of the inchoate, contradictory, and complex range of violence-based Latina\/o ontologies and epistemologies, and corresponding negotiations of power, or ideologies, pursuant to an expansive and meta-critical Pan-Latina\/o methodology and, ultimately, an anti-identitarian Post-Latina\/o paradigm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e B.
