Rezensionen
“Disrupting Savagism offers a theoretically nuanced reading of the struggles over representation that have been waged by marginalized inhabitants of the United States-Mexican border zone. With its remarkable breadth of examples, the book carefully unfolds the thoroughgoing legacy of racial violence in the colonized Southwest.”—Carl Gutiérrez-Jones, author of Rethinking the Borderlands: Between Chicano Culture and Legal Discourse
“The ‘savage’ speaks, gains voice, and articulates resistance to the forces of oppression in Aldama’s Disrupting Savagism. It is relentless in its rigor and perspicacious in its investigation as it dismantles the social discourses that ascribe Native Americans and mixed bloods ‘savage.’ Aldama’s efforts allow the Mestizo and Native American to take hold of the apparatus of representation and affirm self-identity. Disrupting Savagism is an important work, long needed to fill the gap in our collective understanding, a work that will have broad and long-lasting impact. I can think of no other work that addresses this material so capably and so thoroughly. An intelligent and powerful work.”—Alfred Arteaga, author of Chicano Poetics: Heterotexts and Hybridities
"Disrupting Savagism provides a fresh analysis of the ways in which the subaltern speaks and in so doing attempts to unravel the binding structures of nation and empire."
-- Ernesto Chávez American Studies
"[Aldama] manages to directly engage the reader, and refocus the discussion on the intersection between the articulation of body and strategies of resistance."
-- Claudia Aburto Guzman MELUS
"Thorough and nuanced. . . . Ambitious in its theoretical rigor and historical scope, Disrupting Savagism will make a lasting contribution to Chicana/o studies, American Indian studies, and the postcolonial studies of the Americas."
-- Monica Brown Aztlán
