Introducing cultural rhythmics as a new method to study temporality, spatiality, and rhythms of daily life simultaneously rather than as separate elements, this pioneering ethnographic and interpretative study combines over fifteen years of fieldwork in public sector management of development programs with a symbolic analysis of cultural imaginaries and rhythms of life. Analyzing the symbolic dimension of development in Argentina, \u003cem\u003eCultural Rhythmics\u003c\/em\u003e deploys alternative proposals for political and scientific management of these processes in Latin America. Beyond an innovative analysis of the cases presented, Iparraguirre’ s rhythmics perspective can be extrapolated to the practices of development and agendas design in other territories of Argentina, Latin America and the Global South.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA must-read for development scholars interested in a colonial matrix of thought, \u003cem\u003eCultural Rhythmics\u003c\/em\u003e delves into the imaginaries of development and their correlated governance practices applicable in Latin America and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40987798569057,"sku":"9781803828244","price":56.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_29844534.jpg?v=1725789903","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781803828244-cultural-rhythmics","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
