Part of Zed's groundbreaking World Political Theories series, 'Latin America: The Politics of Cheating' examines the way political thinking has developed in Latin America. Marquez identifies seemingly divergent Latin American phenomena as all being part of politics, and shows how this helps us to understand how Latin American political ideas and ideals are played out in a diversity of contexts and through different but interrelated processes. In doing so, he dispels the myth that Latin American politics and political theory are simply underdeveloped derivatives of Western European and North American models. On the contrary, he shows how it in fact allows us to see mainstream Western models of political life and theory as methodologically narrow (sometimes even naive) and normatively provincial (sometimes arrogantly and smugly so). Examining a variety of themes - from literature, art and music to guerrilla revolution and socialist utopia; Latin American feminisms to ethnic-political movements - Marquez presents a boldly original view of political theory from a Latin American perspective.
