Futurity Beyond the State: Illegal Markets and Imagined Futures in Latin America

On October 20, the Centro Latinoamericano-Suizo hosted a public event highlighting the intriguing intersection of illegal markets and the notion of futurity in Latin America. The focal point of this event was the presentation of the special issue titled "Futurity Beyond the State: Illegal Markets and Imagined Futures in Latin America."

This remarkable collection of articles represents the culmination of extensive field-based research conducted across Latin America. It delves deep into the clandestine world of illegal markets that permeate the region, with a particular emphasis on understanding the expectations and representations of the future that swirl around individuals engaged in illicit economic activities.

The event was entirely moderated by HSG students.
