This book promotes international and interdisciplinary reflections on narratives of exclusion, liminality, dissident power, and the forging of new identities during the last decades. Focusing on the rich case-studies presented by the Spanish-speaking world and beyond, it seeks to generate a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of "othering" and the strategies being developed by the traditionally suppressed voices of marginalized ethnic, gender, and mnemonic communities in order to be heard.
