Andrea Espinoza Carvajal is a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Exeter, United Kingdom. She specialises in violence against women in Latin America, particularly in Ecuador and the Andean region. Her work focuses on how women react, adapt, and/or normalise behaviours to survive, endure or disrupt hierarchical and subordinative power structures. Her research follows a feminist and decolonial epistemology and relies on ethnographic and arts-based research methods. She holds an MSc in Latin American Development and a PhD in Gender and Development from King's College London. Luis Medina Cordova is a Lecturer in Modern Languages at the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. He specialises in the study of contemporary Ecuadorian and Latin American writing. After being awarded a PhD in Latin American Studies by King's College London in 2020, he has held teaching positions at King's College London and the University of Manchester. In 2021, he won the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain & Ireland Publication Prize. His monograph, 'Imagining Ecuador', published in 2022 by Tamesis Books, explores contemporary Ecuadorian fiction, its connections with economic phenomena and its impacts on the study of World Literature.
This volume unites the writing of a new generation of Latin Americanists. Their focus on how different actors and institutions imagined the pandemic and what this forced or allowed them to do or deny is powerful and necessary; the chapters shed light on the morality and inequality of health interventions and imaginations, and how Latin Americans across the continent used their creativity to survive, overcome, and thrive in the everyday. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the 'pandemic years' and their aftermath. Professor Jelke Boesten King's College London
