This article explores Mexico’s overlooked importance in the Central American armed conflict, the limits of its influence, and its connection to the late Cold War. Mexico’s policy toward Central America attempted to prevent an American and Cuban military intervention in the area and avoid a Cold War confrontation along its southern border. Mexico attempted to build detente in the region and prevent a global escalation of tension between the great powers. Meanwhile, it sought to propose a “third way” for the revolutionary actors shaped after Mexico’s political system and history. Studying Mexico’s efforts to create detente-like arrangements can shed light on the efforts of peripheral actors and their projects to influence the international system despite the actions of hegemonic powers.

From the moment it launched its armed insurgency in 1980 until the death of its former leader in September 2021, Peru’s Shining Path mesmerized observers. The Maoist group had a well-established reputation as a personality cult whose members were fanatically devoted to Abimael Guzmán, the messianic leader they revered as “Presidente Gonzalo.” According to this narrative, referred to here as the “Gonzalo mystique,” Shining Path zealots were prepared to submit to Guzmán’s authority and will—no matter how violent or suicidal—because they viewed him as a messiah-prophet who would usher in a new era of communist utopia. Drawing on newly available sources, including the minutes of Shining Path’s 1988–1989 congress, this article complicates the Gonzalo mystique narrative, tracing the unrelenting efforts by middle- and high-ranking militants to challenge, undermine, disobey, and even unseat Guzmán throughout the insurgency. Far from seeing their leader as the undisputed cosmocrat of the popular imagination, these militants recognized Guzmán for who he was: a deeply flawed man with errant ideas, including a dubious interpretation of Maoism, problematic military strategy, and a revolutionary path that was anything but shining.

Abstract From 2016 to 2019, the backlash in Brazil against so-called gender ideology framed gender dissidence as a reason for the country’s perceived decline, playing a central role in the rise of Bolsonarismo, a movement increasingly identified as fascist. In this gender-hostile environment, I examine Brazil’s first trans men’s soccer team, the Meninos Bons de Bola (MBB), and its use of nudity as a response to the political shift rightward and to tell a story about the precarity of minoritized groups across the Americas. The team’s changing approach to trans representation exposes the period as a watershed in Brazilian politics. The MBB’s naked protest during this time of governmental change reveals resistance to the machinations of Brazilian fascism, including censorship, backlash, and shaming. By asserting that the MBB were never just about futebol, the team uses the national sport to enact trans politics and to claim belonging beyond the bounds of normative citizenship.
摘要从2016年到2019年，巴西对所谓性别意识形态的强烈反对将性别异见视为该国衰落的原因，在博索纳罗主义的兴起中发挥了核心作用，这场运动越来越被视为法西斯。在这种性别敌对的环境中，我研究了巴西第一支跨性别男子足球队Meninos Bons de Bola（MBB），以及它利用裸体作为对政治右倾的回应，并讲述了美洲各地少数族裔群体不稳定的故事。该团队对跨性别代表制的不断改变暴露出这一时期是巴西政治的分水岭。MBB在政府更迭期间的赤裸裸的抗议表明了对巴西法西斯主义阴谋的抵制，包括审查、反弹和羞辱。通过断言MBB从来都不仅仅是futebol，该团队利用这项国家运动来制定跨性别政治，并声称属于规范公民的范围之外。

El objetivo de este artículo es establecer el nivel de eficiencia del gasto público sanitario en América Latina y comprobar su relación con determinadas características institucionales como calidad regulatoria, participación del sector privado, descentralización o tamaño de la burocracia. Se estima una frontera estocástica de verdaderos efectos aleatorios que relaciona el gasto público en salud per cápita frente a la tasa de mortalidad neonatal e infantil y la esperanza de vida después de los sesenta años. Se regresan las ineficiencias resultantes respecto del conjunto de variables institucionales explicativas. Se evidencia el importante papel del gasto público sanitario en la obtención de determinados niveles de realización sanitaria. Sin embargo, su eficiencia es mejorable, especialmente a partir de optimizar la calidad regulatoria del Estado. Latinoamérica ha configurados sistemas sanitarios complejos, pero no han logrado mejorar la coordinación entre sus actores, lo que explica su ineficiencia. La rectoría del gobierno es esencial.

Since issue 57-1 (2022), LARR has shifted from a disciplinary to a thematic emphasis. The published thematic sections are not based on previously commissioned dossiers. On the contrary, the editor in chief, with feedback from the editorial team, organized freely submitted articles into thematic groups. This thematic organization makes LARR a great tool for learning about the significant and emerging themes in the field of Latin American studies. Salient topics in volume 57 (2022) were the political and decolonizing role of the arts, historical and epistemological reflections on the humanities and the social sciences in Latin America, the role of the middle classes in political changes in Brazil, disability studies, human rights, and political economy. The themes that our authors are working on in 2023 are gender and sexuality studies, Afro-Latin America, racism and xenophobia, environmental studies, the role of the judiciary, rethinking the war in Peru, puzzling socio-economic issues and, of course, public health and epidemics. Please, watch out for exciting debates coming up this year in LARR! Despite the shift to an interdisciplinary emphasis, submissions in the humanities and social science disciplines continue to be strong. I would like to highlight that the discipline of economics is taking off in LARR thanks to the efforts of our new associate editor Rosaluz Durán, affiliated with the University of Lima in Peru. Other disciplines like history, literature, anthropology, sociology, and cultural studies are also receiving high quality contributions. The political science discipline continues to be strong and has shifted its attention to less traditional topics for the field such as gender, sexual orientation, and race. Our film review section is also taking off with great contributions curated by our new associate editor Antonio Gómez of Tulane University. The book review section continues to produce quality reviews and its articles are amongst the most cited in LARR. We are delighted to announce that our impact and cite scores have increased significantly both in general and in the disciplines, as I will explain in more detail below. At the 2023 LASA meeting, LARR is sponsoring several featured panels including a workshop where the public will be able to interact with the editorial team and learn publishing strategies, and a panel celebrating our authors in volume 57 who work on the topics of the LASA meeting, democracy and human rights. We will also be holding a reception to provide an opportunity for interaction between the editorial team and current and prospective authors as well as LARR readers.
