A collective challenge to the global hegemonic vision of punk. This book interrogates the dominant vision of punk-particularly its white masculine protagonists and deep Anglocentrism-by analyzing punk as a critical lens into the disputed territories of "America," a term that hides the heterogeneous struggles, global histories, hopes, and despairs of late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century experience. Compiling academic essays and punk paraphernalia (including interviews, zines, poetry, and visual segments) into a single volume, the book explores punk life through its multiple registers: vivid musical dialogues, excessive visual displays, and underground literary expression.

' PUNK! Las Americas Edition expands the understanding of punk and serves a very important anti-colonial purpose in punk-related scholarship. ' -- David Vila Dieguez, University of Texas at El Paso ' Showcasing the work and testimony of scholars, artists, and activists from Alaska to Patagonia, and many places in between, through essays, interviews, record reviews, poems, novel excerpts, photographs, zines, record and cassette covers, and manifestos, PUNK! Las Americas Edition invites us to think about punk otherwise. By critically engaging with punk as a musical genre and subculture and as an aesthetic and disposition with multiple interconnected manifestations across the hemisphere, this book demonstrates that punk has much to teach us about the Americas and that the Americas have much to teach us about punk. ' -- Paulo Drinot, University College London ' This volume is a practice: it shows "contradiction" empirically and uses it abstractly, it distinguishes between "the visual" and "the sonic" and mixes them ch' ixi style as it does "the oral" and "the written" - but sorry: because heterogeneity is a main analytics, there is not "the" singular anything: sonic, visual, oral or written - and therefore, perhaps, neither of those fields should be separated . . . but they are: ch' ixi style! On transgressing, this volume shows complexity and its "method" becomes tangible, as tangible as all the brilliant hiStories it tells and hints at. An academic book through and through, the transgressions this volume performs run the risk of becoming exemplary. An inspiring thrill to read and indeed to think through. Congratulations to its heterogenous editors!' -- Marisol de la Cadena, UC Davis
