Abstract

Burke’s book is situated between “the history of diasporas and the history of knowledge”.

The academic exile Burke speaks of is the bearer of knowledge that has had to displace, transplant and translate in another place and in this process of transshipment, some have failed and others have been successful. The creation and contribution of knowledge thus arise from intellectuals who were located between assimilation and self-marginalization.

This comment emphasizes that the author, although his approach intends to be global, leaves aside an analysis appropriate to the Latin American case that allows to account for the deprovincialization and hybridization of knowledge.
