• Sommario/riassunto: A portrait of postdictatorial Chile by one of that country's most incisive cultural critics, Cultural Residues uses memoirs, photographs, art, and novels-the "residues" of a culture-to analyze the political-cultural Chilean landscape in the wake of Augusto Pinochet's seventeen-year military rule. According to Nelly Richard, such residual areas reveal the flaws in Chile's transition from violent dictatorship to electoral democracy.
