Abstract: Traditionalism in the contemporary political elite in Paraguay From the perspective of the sociology of elites and with a qualitative-quantitative methodology, I analysed the constitution of the Paraguayan government elites, through the study of four presidential cases and the conformation of Congress. Paraguayan political elite, mostly male in Congress and exclusively male in the presidency, is intrinsically related to the party to which it belongs. This has been maintained since the dictatorship. A family logic is evident in the reproduction of power and in the circulation between different positions of the state, something that prevailed in the transition to democracy, a time in which members of these families tried to get rid of their dictatorial past. In addition, I tracked cases of multipositionality in various political actors who are, at the same time, members of the economic elite or were religious or military. Resumen Desde la perspectiva de la sociologia de las elites y con una metodologia cuali-cuantitativa, se analizan la conformacion de las elites de gobierno de Paraguay, a traves del estudio de cuatro casos presidenciales y de la conformacion del Congreso.

Se evidencia una logica familiar en la reproduccion de poder y en la circulacion entre diferentes cargos del Estado, algo que prevalecio en la transicion a la democracia, periodo en el que miembros de estas familias intentaron desprenderse del pasado dictatorial.

Abstract: The right to elective abortion in Chiapas, Mexico This article tackles the issue of voluntary termination of pregnancy in the case of Chiapas, the state in which in 1990 the government decriminalised abortion for family planning pur-poses, a measure without precedent at national scale. Applying an interdisciplinary focus, the article examines changes in a state law, crucial actors’ positions and Mayan communi-ties’ norms in order to consider a possibility of overcoming social antagonism related to legality of voluntary termination of pregnancy. Resumen El presente articulo aborda la cuestion de la terminacion voluntaria del embarazo en el caso de Chiapas, Mexico, donde en 1990 el gobierno estatal aprobo una medida sin precedentes a nivel nacional al despenalizar el aborto por razones de planificacion familiar. Desde un en-foque interdisciplinar integral se estudian cambios en la norma legal estatal, posicionamien-tos de diversos actores, asi como normatividades presentes en las comunidades mayas de los Altos de Chiapas, con el objetivo de responder a la pregunta sobre la posibilidad de superar el antagonismo social que existe acerca de la licitud de la terminacion voluntaria del emba-razo.

Abstract: Dancing in time: Agrarian transformation and persistence of the peasantry in Argentina The persistence of the peasantry continues to be one of the main theoretical concerns of the agrarian question in the twenty-first century. Contrary to those who predict its disappear-ance, Santiago del Estero, a peripheral province of Argentina, maintains an agrarian struc-ture with almost 68 percent of peasant farms. These figures are accentuated in some depart-ments such as Atamisqui and Figueroa, which generate various hypotheses about the pene-tration of capitalism in agriculture as well as about the sector’s ability to resist and remain. This article identifies old and renewed processes of resistance and recreation of the peasant-ry in the rural areas of Santiago, maintaining that the term peasant is not crystallized but dynamic. This requires a more diachronic methodology that allows to examine its trajectory, not only from the conjunctural strategies, but also from its evolution in time. Resumen La persistencia del campesinado continua siendo una de las principales preocupaciones teoricas de la cuestion agraria en pleno siglo XXI. Pese a quienes pronostican su desaparicion, Santiago del Estero, una provincia periferica de la Argentina, mantiene una estructura agraria con casi un 68 por ciento de explotaciones campesinas. Dichas cifras se acentuan en algunos departamentos como Atamisqui y Figueroa, lo que genera diversas hipotesis, tanto sobre la penetracion del capitalismo en el agro, como tambien sobre la capacidad que tuvo el sector para resistir y permanecer. Este articulo identifica antiguos y renovados procesos de resistencia y recreacion del campesinado en la ruralidad santiaguena, sosteniendo que el termino campesino no esta cristalizado, sino que es dinamico. Esto requiere una metodologia mas diacronica que permita examinar su trayectoria, no solo a partir de las estrategias coyunturales, sino tambien a partir de su devenir en el tiempo.

The words of the other in Colombia: The testimony of politically complex victims in the institutionalized memory This article develops a problematization of the notion of testimony with which the historical memory has been constructed in Colombia. It is argued that the use of testimony as primary information of historical memory reports starts from an epistemological frame of the notion of victim. The case of the politically complex victim is analysed as a significant subject that allows to make political decisions on how to build the corpus of testimonial information in historical memory exercises. This method leads to a questioning of the representational function of historical memory reports. The analysis is the product of different fieldworks developed over ten years with victims and demobilized former combatants of illegal armies in Colombia. The work concludes that the inclusion of the testimony of the so-called the others facilitates the necessary destabilization of the narrative of violence. El articulo desarrolla una problematizacion de la nocion de testimonio con que se ha construido la memoria institucional en Colombia. Se sostiene que el uso del testimonio como informacion primaria de los informes de memoria historica parte de un recorte epistemologico de la nocion de victima. Se analiza el caso de la victima politicamente compleja como sujeto significante que permite tomar decisiones politicas respecto de como construir los corpus de informacion testimonial en los ejercicios de memoria historica. Este ejercicio plantea un cuestionamiento de la funcion representacional de los informes de memoria historica. El analisis es producto de diferentes trabajos de campo desarrollados a lo largo de diez anos con victimas del conflicto armado y excombatientes desmovilizados de ejercitos ilegales en Colombia. El trabajo concluye que la inclusion de la palabra de quienes han sido nombrado como otros posibilita la necesaria desestabilizacion de la narracion de la violencia.

The ‘Columbian exchange’ (Crosby) after 1492 mixed bacteria and viruses from the ‘Old’ and the ‘New World’; ever since then, epidemics have shaped the political course of events in Latin America and the Caribbean. While the diseases and their victims are largely forgotten in collective memory, they also remain marginal in much of conventional scholarship, as they are not easily framed in narratives of national history or social emancipation. The present contribution provides concrete examples that demonstrate the profound political impact of pandemics, but also the lack of attention they have received in standard textbooks and accounts of Latin American history. The conclusions call on scholars to fully embrace the insights from environmental history and epidemiological research into their teaching and writing on the region.
