CfP: Latin America as a Revolutionary Imaginary: Imaginations, Theories and Practices of Solidarity among the German-Speaking Left since 1945 (English and German)

Since the end of the Second World War, Latin America has occupied a distinctive place in the political and intellectual imaginaries of the German-speaking left. At different historical moments, the subcontinent functioned as a revolutionary horizon and as a symbol of freedom and political renewal—shaped in no small part by the experiences of German-speaking leftists who found exile in Latin America during National Socialism.
