Review Quotes
Professor Ezequiel Adamovsky, University of Buenos Aires/University of San Martín
"Ignacio Aguiló’s study is a major contribution to an emerging scholarship on race in Argentina. Built on solid research, The Darkening Nation presents a compelling account of the ways in which Argentine culture dealt with racial anxieties and struggled to redefine nationhood in the aftermath of the 2001 crisis."
Professor Jens Andermann, New York University
"At a time when, in Argentina and elsewhere, a racialised discourse of friend and enemy, believed to have long been superseded, once again dominates the political sphere, Ignacio Aguiló’s sweeping survey of film, literature and visual art since the millennium provides an indispensable point of critical reference."
