Utopia and the Dialectic in Latin American Liberation
Eugene Gogol
"The
key question driving Utopia and the Dialectic in Latin American Liberation is
this: ‘[a]re there living threads which connect a concept of utopia found in
many of today’s Latin American movements and the dialectic as found in Hegel,
created anew in Marx, and by others?’ (4). In Parts 1 and 2 of the volume,
Eugene Gogol approaches this question directly: first, he unveils ‘certain
concepts of dialectical thought […] that can aid us in grasping the dialectic
in Hegel as in life’ (28); second, he looks for ‘strands of the dialectic as
they emerge from within Latin America itself’ (4). The result is impressive. In
clear and unhurried prose, Gogol offers an erudite exploration of some complex
theoretical ground, and then deftly applies it to a few instances of popular
rebellion in the region."
