"America, América" by @GregGrandin already was one of the best history books about the region. Now it is also an urgent one. I wrote about that and discussed the idea of Latin America and its "immanent critique" to the U.S.

I guess we all have a story to tell, including the country that brought wild salmon population to the brink of extinction.
"They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum." It never gets old.

All I'm writing on salmon would be so much better with that kind of illustration...

The US has already killed more people in their military strikes against civilian boats in Latin America during the last two months (83, almost all civilians) than during the entire Grenada Invasion of 1983 (69 Grenadian and Cuban fighters).
On Tuesday, Norway “paused” the work of the ethics council of its sovereign wealth fund, so it can keep its cozy relationship w/ Israel & big tech. For those interested, Ecozon@ just published what I wrote on Norwegian identity and it’s entanglement with oil&extractivism.

Scott Bessent (and Summers before him) sees that the battle for the U.S. soul is in Latin America, between their liberal allies and even the most modesta ttempts for empathy and social reform.
Banks and carriers, or welfare and joy. He got the song wrong, but the clash right.
US navy and the CIA carrying out extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean and Pacific Latin America, while JP Morgan global CEO flies down to Buenos Aires flanked by Condoleezza Rice and Tony Blair to shore up ultraright Milei's government.

Acá Omar Genovese, se mete en los túneles de la ciudad para hacer una reseña de "Acá Falta Alguien", casi tan rara como la novela, pero mejor. Y que en la versión impresa aparece junto a Derridá. La revolución es un sueño enfermo.

"A new life cycle amid the ecological breakdown.” Two years of work. Biologists, fishermen, anthropologists, translators, journalists to reconstruct the massive social and environmental changes a salmon lived in her journey across the Americas, from Oregon to Paraná.

Las salmoneras hacen su nuevo intento en Tierra del Fuego, en una combinación de poderío económico, espejismos e irrealidades. En medio de eso, todos nosotros:

“América Latina es, al fin y al cabo, tan desigual como beligerante.” Tremendo trabajo de la Universidad de Texas en Austin y Revista Anfibia con links (al final) a las historias de las cosas que funcionan, el presente de dónde saldrá un futuro mejor.

En Chile, la candidata oficialista de centroizquierda va contra una de derecha, uno de ultraderecha, y otro de ultra-ultra derecha. Todos apoyan menos controles, menos impuestos, más subsidios. Hay más consenso sobre las salmoneras que sobre la democracia.
