معرفی
S.B. West is an Associate Professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Northwestern University. Their research engages critically with Latin American literary and cultural canons, focusing on abolitionist, decolonial, and trans feminist frameworks that challenge colonial, cisheteronormative underpinnings of gender, class, and race relations.
- Research Interests: Hemispheric Latin American textual production, particularly from the Mayan/Yucatán peninsula; contemporary Yucatec Maya literature; U.S. Spanish-language migration literature; feminist theory; and the interplay of gender and race in colonial and postcolonial contexts.
- Current Book Project: Autonomy and Abolition in the 'Caste War', re-examining Yucatán’s 19th-century textual register to analyze colonial oppression and liberal state-building through a gendered and racialized lens.
- Other Projects: Ongoing research on transnational utopian practices in Latin American urban landscapes, though this appears to be associated with colleague Alfonso Fierro rather than West directly.
