Interview with
  • Alexander Grimson

  • Alina Peña Iguarán

The interview "Intellectual challenges for the political imagination" presents a dialogue with Alejandro Grimson, a prominent Argentine anthropologist known for his analysis of identities and borders in Latin America. Alina Peña Iguarán highlights his contributions on cultural configurations and the concept of frontier as a dynamic space of interaction and conflict. The conversation addresses three moments: the Latin American debates of the 1990s, the genesis of his book "The Limits of Culture", and the analysis of the rise of the extreme right. Grimson reflects on nationalism, crisis of representation, and the urgency of building alternatives to the current political "mess" that weakens democracy.
