Adolfo Campoy-Cubillo started the topic Eppur si muove in the forum
Iberian Studies on MLA Commons 11 years, 6 months agoThank you, Edgar. I understand your comment about the irrelevance of this manifestoes. I also understand that Despite the fact that we are not talking about a nation-making process, Ramon Cotarelo’s statements are an act of civicism where one citizen defends the rights of other citizens. That kind of civic attitude is precisely what the Vargas…[Read more]

Iberian Studies on MLA Commons 11 years, 6 months agoThank you Jennifer.
You are right, although My concern is that while the punitive bravado of the paragraph you mentioned may not be shared by the bulk of the population, the more subtle yuxtaposition of citizenship vs peripheral national identities can easily fly below the radar.

Adolfo Campoy-Cubillo replied to the topic Un manifiesto más in the forum
Iberian Studies on MLA Commons 11 years, 6 months agoThank you, Elisa.
What I am most troubled about is that the FAES/Vargas Llosa manifesto suggests a separation between citizenship and national identity that echoes the centralization of national identities that characterized the Enlightenment unproblematically. There is an obvious attempt to co-opt any discourse of modernity that is not a…[Read more]

Bruce W. Robbins posted an update on MLA Commons 11 years, 7 months ago
As many of you will have heard, Resolution 2014-1 got 60% of the votes cast but did not reach the minimum of 10% of the total membership required (by a recent rule) in order to be officially adopted. Thank you to all who voted. I attach an op-ed by David Lloyd that to my mind gives a good sense of the meaning of the event:

I’m among the 1500, but what worries me more than the opposition is the apathy of those who did not care to cast any vote. Not that we are much different here in Poland… Thank you for your post.

Thank you to everyone who voted on resolution 2014-1. As you will have heard, the resolution got 60% of the votes in its favor but did not pass because it did not reach the minimum of 10% of the membership required (by a recent rule). This still counts as a major victory. I attach an op-ed by David Lloyd:

Prove participatory citizenship is still alive! Vote on the MLA resolution! Last 8 hours!

Bruce W. Robbins posted an update on MLA Commons 11 years, 8 months ago
Please forgive me for being exceedingly tedious on the subject of the vote, which ends at midnight tonight. The bar of 10% of the membership that resolutions have to pass is a relatively new one, and arguably not a good one, given the general indifference (which those who proposed it probably were counting on). But it is still possible to prove…[Read more]

I’m writing to encourage people to vote on the Israel resolution (right of entry for Americans of Palestinian and Arab descent). I co-sponsored it, so obviously I believe it’s a good and fair and appropriate thing, but I think you will agree if you take a moment to look it over. Voting ends at midnight on Sunday. traditionally MLA resolutions hav…[Read more]
