“…3 Similarly, Beatriz Sarlo, also considered one of the pioneers of Cultural Studies in Latin America, objects to having Mato 47 her work labelled as Cultural Studies (Sarlo, 1997). Nonetheless, this has not kept her from underscoring the importance of Hall's work, including specifically highlighting his words about Raymond Williams' ideas on culture and politics as a key reference in shaping the strategy of the journal Punto de Vista, the influential cultural-political project developed by herself and Carlos Altamirano during the period of the last dictatorship in Argentina (Sarlo, 2000: 312).…”

“…The fact that Hall’s work did not appear as a reference in García-Canclini’s first two highly acclaimed books (1982, 1989) nor in Martín-Barbero’s first highly regarded book (1987), is an important element in understanding why they state that they were doing Cultural Studies long before the prevalence of the label. 3 Similarly, Beatriz Sarlo, also considered one of the pioneers of Cultural Studies in Latin America, objects to having her work labelled as Cultural Studies (Sarlo, 1997).

“… 4. Beatriz Sarlo has emphatically stated: ‘In Argentina, we do not name them “cultural studies”.’ In her view this term was put into mass circulation by US academia. Instead, she prefers to talk in terms of cultural analysis (Sarlo, 1997: 90). Jesús Martín-Barbero has remarked that ‘We had done cultural studies well before this label appeared’ (1997: 52).…”

This article discusses how Hall's ideas have been taken up readily, rigorously and critically by scholars and intellectuals in Latin America who can be considered trailblazers in the field of Latin American Cultural Studies and those that followed, as well as others who undertake critical work but refuse the Cultural Studies label, and finally others whose work could readily be identified as Cultural Studies but who have not been taken up as such. This analysis leads to the conclusion that it would be simplistic to constrain the discussion of the significance of Hall's ideas in Latin America to the field of so-called Latin American Cultural Studies; rather this needs to be seen in more complex ways.

“…1 7 different moments disassociated themselves from the concept of Cultural Studies, preferring to align themselves with other notions, such as sociology of culture (Sarlo 1997) or cultural critique (Richard 2010) This foreign infusion is partly due to the lack of doctoral programmes in the humanities and social sciences in Colombia. The Universidad de Los Andes currently offers four doctorates (in anthropology, history, political science and psychology), the Universidad Nacional three (geography, history and philosophy) and the Javeriana only one (the recently launched interdisciplinary Doctorate in Social and Human Sciences, whose relationship to the intellectual project of Cultural Studies remains to be seen).…”

In this article, we describe the eccentric location of Cultural Studies in the Latin American academy: while it remains marginal in terms of institutional recognition, it is nevertheless important in terms of the interest it arouses in professors and students alike, and in the amount and quality of publications in the area. The field's general flexibility appeals both to many established researchers, who employ its methodologies to expand the scope of their investigations, and to many students, who become frustrated with disciplinary rigidity and with the difficulty in carrying out academic projects with overtly political underpinnings from the traditional disciplines of the humanities and social sciences. While student demand is clearly strong in much of Latin America, the response to the rise of Cultural Studies in the Latin American academy has taken two general forms:(1) an opening up of spaces within existing disciplines (anthropology, communications, literature, etc.) for the more interdisciplinary or politicized work and (2) the foundation of new programmes in Cultural Studies. We use as examples the case studies of Argentina and Colombia, countries that have a completely different academic history and tradition. We survey the diverse ways in which Cultural Studies has entered institutional spaces in both countries. Colombia offers the case of an academy that appears to have welcomed the institutionalization of Cultural Studies, at least superficially, while Argentina appears to have resisted ceding the field institutional space. Nonetheless, its presence in both countries is strongly palpable; it is clearly a force too strong to be suppressed by resistance from the traditional disciplines.
