Summary: Una Jaula de Oro. A Golden Cage.
Comment: Barta's exploration of the construction of the mexican subjectivity is superb. His is a sophisticated analysis of the process by which the State legitimates itself through nationalism. This work constitutes a devastating critique of the icons and myths constructed by nationalist discourse. It is also an invitation for us, mexicano/as, to rethink ourselves as subjects and to live our mexicaness in new and subversive ways.
