Abstract | This article suggests the indispensable purchase of sustaining a critique of the conventional geography of "Latin America." Any critical approach to (Latin) American geography must be organized in relation to the genealogy of concepts, discourses, and practices implicated in the historical and ongoing sociopolitical production of the space of ("Latin") "America." This article's specific intervention toward a critical geography of Latin America adopts the vantage point of migration as a standpoint of critique, and thus posits a critical geographical perspective on Latin/America from the point of view of the experiences of Latino/a migrants in the United States. Situating its inquiry in relation to the pivotal role of anti-Mexican/anti-Latino racism in the political rhetoric of Donald Trump, this paper is ultimately interested in the relationship of Latin American and Latina/o Studies to the autonomy of migration, the subversion of the U.S.-Mexico border, and the politics of incorrigibility articulated through migrants' struggles within the United States. This article also seeks thereby to revisit the perennially (but productively) problematic relationship between what comes to be known as "Latin American Studies" and the field of scholarly inquiry called "Latino Studies." Este artículo sugiere la indispensabilidad de sostener una crítica de la geografía convencional de “América Latina.” Cualquier enfoque crítico de la geografía (latino-)americana tiene que ser organizado en relación con la genealogía de conceptos, discursos, y prácticas implicados en la historia y producción socio-política perpetua del espacio de “América” (“Latina”). La intervención específica de este artículo hacia una geografía crítica de América Latina utiliza la migración como punto de entrada de la crítica y, por lo tanto, plantea una perspectiva geográfica crítica sobre la América/Latina a partir del punto de vista de las experiencias de los migrantes latinos en los Estados Unidos. En relación con el papel fundamental del rac ismo anti-mexicano / anti-latino en la retórica política de Donald Trump, este trabajo está en última instancia interesado en la relación entre estudios latinoamericanos y latinos con la autonomía de la migración, la subversión de la frontera entre México y los Estados Unidos, y la política de la incorregibilidad articulada a través de las luchas de los migrantes dentro de los Estados Unidos. Este artículo también busca revisar la relación (productivamente) problemática entre lo que se conoce como “Estudios Latinoamericanos” y el campo de la investigación académica llamado “Estudios Latinos.” |
