Introduction WHEN I BEGAN this investigation of the dissolution and reconfiguration of the social fabric in the Chile of the past twenty years, the tone of my interest was marked by two themes that had caught my attention. One of these was memory narratives—their historical politicization and later legal exhumation; the other was the change in individual and collective subjectivity, expressed in a state of media exaltation of the intimate. It was curious that the most notable events, those that appeared in the press and that are the object of debate for Chileans, kept a relation with these two topics, seen through the prism of the moral-sexual behavior of Chile’s citizens. I use the term moral- sexual to emphasize that a part of the Chilean societal paradigm is the regu- lation of practices and pleasures linked to the exercise of sexuality. I also say that it is that of the normalizing sanction and judicialization of the memory of the collective state violence. All of these facts, observed in the context of a peculiar strategy of exhibition of the intimate propelled by the media, made me suspect that a new domestication of “impulses” was taking place. The two vital energies through which it was possible to arrange the modern state found themselves in a moment of regulation. Some of the examples that illustrate these cases of violation in the moral- sexual modern state do not carry the mark of genocide of opponents of the prior regime. Rather, they represent the judgment of individuals (pedophiles, rapists, pederasts, abusers) belonging to the ruling strata (businessmen, poli- ticians, military, religious) whose behavior damages the restoration of insti- 1 All Rights Reserved.

This work begins with the contributions of queer theory to the discussion and redefinition of the dominant understandings of culture, subject, sexual- ity, and social relations in the West. This political response to the hetero- sexual hegemonic cultural template can be applied to the Latin American political and cultural context. In particular I work with Foucault’s idea of examining in the present the circumstantial and provisional cultural narra- tive available to form certain specific forms of subjectivity. These discursive formations would influence the way in which a subject is constructed and made accountable for a specific discipline of institution. For instance, in the Chilean case, we find the impact of transnational neoliberal narratives on the formation of the individual while interacting with the newly democratic political cultures of memory in Chile. Over the past twenty years, social the- ory and change have occurred in the notion of the social framework, prefig- uring the multicultural and globalized scene in which the ideas of subject and its ways of connecting, and therefore of being articulated in the whole of the society and in intellectual reflection, have been redefined. The instability of the modes of production and organization that individuals have devel- oped in recent times is explained in this work as a result of the change in the cultural offers available for the elaboration and construction of the subject. Grouped around a liberal postmodernity, distinguished for an unblemished index of individuation, these offers enter the scene to combine with other factors present in the period in question. This time is known as “the Transi- tion,” and it was ruled by the Coalition of Political Parties for Democracy, known as the Concertación, from 1990 to 2010. The dissolution of the his- torical narratives (socialism as utopia), the change in the statute of memory (judicialization and mediatization of human rights memory accounts1), the media coverage of the public sphere (confluence of the political and media spheres), the alteration of the symbolic consistency of the point of subjectiva- tion, and the loss of consistency of the imaginary institutionalization of the state and its institutions translate into the weakening of the social bond, with the ensuing risk of social anomie.

An Anatomy of Marginality: Figures of the Eternal Return and the Apocalypse in Chilean Post-Dictatorial Fiction Abstract The article analyzes two novels by Chilean writer Diamela Eltit from the standpoint of the post-dictatorial imperative to mourn the dead and reactivate collective memory. After framing Eltit's fiction in the context of the avant-garde resurgence of plastic and performance arts in the second half of Pinochet's regime, I move on to discuss Lumpérica (1983) and Los vigilantes (1994) as two different manifestations of the temporality of mourning. The article addresses how Lumpérica's portrayal of an oneiric, orgiastic communion in marginality (shared by the protagonist and a mass of beggars at a Santiago square) composed an allegory in the strict Benjaminian sense; it further notes how such allegory, as an anti- dictatorial, oppositional gesture, could only find a home in a temporality modeled after the eternal return.

(May 2012) Audrey Bryant Powell, B.A., Baylor University; M.A., Baylor University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Alberto Moreiras This dissertation proposes a theoretical examination of the Latin American thriller through the framework of post-dictatorial Chile, with a concluding look at the post civil war Central American context. I define the thriller as a loose narrative structure reminiscent of the basic detective story, but that fuses the conventional investigation formula with more sensational elements such as political violence, institutional corruption and State terrorism. Unlike the classic form, in which crime traditionally occurs in the past, the thriller form engages violence as an event ongoing in the present or always lurking on the narrative horizon. The Chilean post-dictatorial and Central American postwar histories contain these precise thriller elements. Throughout the Chilean military dictatorship (1973-1990), the Central American civil wars (1960s-1990s) and the triumph of global capitalism, political violence emerges in diversified and oftentimes subtle ways, demanding new interpretational paradigms for explaining its manifestation in contemporary society.

El país todavía no ha logrado realizar el duelo por un pasado tan doloroso, y las memorias antagónicas y contrapuestas siguen vigentes. Ello se manifiesta, por ejemplo, en los conflictos generados en torno a la conmemoración del 11 de septiembre, en los polémicos debates por los memoriales erigidos en honor de personajes políticos de izquierda y de derecha, así como en las contradictorias mi- radas respecto a uno de los personajes más emblemáticos de la represión dictatorial, Miguel Krassnoff, tal como aparece en dos libros de reciente publicación. Palabras clave: Chile, memorias antagónicas, fechas, memoriales, personajes. Abstract In Chile, in spite of the last eighteen years of democracy, there are still shadows of the dictatorial past. Duel of the painful past hasn’t been yet accomplished, and contradic- tory and antagonistic memories are still playing a crucial role in society and politics.

Multiples Landscapes Relationalities in Contemporary Indigenous Rapa Nu By Antonia Rivas Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Berkeley Professor Charles Briggs, Co-Chair Professor Nancy Scheper-Hughes, Co-Chair Contemporary Rapa Nui is formed by a multiple and complex set of interactions, encounters, and circumstances that comprise the core of their indigenous identity, like many other indigenous people's realities. In this dissertation, I argue that there is not a simple or straightforward way of thinking about indigenous identities without falling into the trap of essentialism and stereotyping. Indigenous people are not what remained of ancestral civilizations, nor are they either invented nor folklorized commodities produced by ―neo-shamanism‖ discourses. Recent theoretical contributions to the understanding of the relationship of native peoples with their territories have been fundamental to rethinking the meanings of indigeneity, but I argue that they continue to essentialize indigenous people relations with their past and the ways in which they are understood in the present.

  • New Constructions of House and Home in Contemporary Argentine and Chilean Cinema (2005-2015)
    New Constructions of House and Home in Contemporary Argentine and Chilean Cinema (2005-2015) Paul Rumney Merchant St John’s College August 2017 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. New Constructions of House and Home in Contemporary Argentine and Chilean Cinema (2005 – 2015) Paul Rumney Merchant This thesis explores the potential of domestic space to act as the ground for new forms of community and sociability in Argentine and Chilean films from the early twenty-first century. It thus tracks a shift in the political treatment of the home in Southern Cone cinema, away from allegorical affirmations of the family, and towards a reflection on film’s ability to both delineate and disrupt lived spaces. In the works examined, the displacement of attention from human subjects to the material environment defamiliarises the domestic sphere and complicates its relation to the nation. The house thus does not act as ‘a body of images that give mankind proofs or illusions of stability’ (Bachelard), but rather as a medium through which identities are challenged and reformed. This anxiety about domestic space demands, I argue, a renewal of the deconstructive frameworks often deployed in studies of Latin American culture (Moreiras, Williams). The thesis turns to new materialist theories, among others, as a supplement to deconstructive thinking, and argues that theorisations of cinema’s political agency must be informed by social, economic and urban histories. The prominence of suburban settings moreover encourages a nuancing of the ontological links often invoked between cinema, the house, and the city. The first section of the thesis rethinks two concepts closely linked to the home: memory and modernity.
