| Descrizione: | An analysis is presented of the tension between the metropolis and periphery in La Virgen Cabeza, by Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, and of how villas, considered spaces of exclusion, generate alternative economies and expressions of identity that elude state-capitalist control. To this end, the study explores aspects of the novel (tropes and characters) that reveal these new realities emerging from collective efforts that function as forms of resistance and the recuperation of historically devalued territories. The conclusions suggest that in contemporary times, peripheral subjects no longer seek integration into the metropolis, but instead aim to transform their communities through practices of cooperation and cultural production. |
