Science Fiction and Digital Technologies in Argentine and Brazilian Culture PDF
by E. King
Description
Many fictional narratives produced in Brazil and Argentina borrow the tropes of postmodern science fiction, in particular the subgenre 'cyberpunk,' to examine the shifting nature of power in neoliberal society.
King examines how this phenomenon leads to a marshalling of national discourses toward a market-governed "control society" and explores new models of agency beyond that of the individual.
Utilizing cultural theory to examine Argentine and Brazilian comics, digital technology, and literature, this book traces flows of culture and power in an increasingly globalized world.
