    Published 2015-01-01
    “…I begin by specifying the characteristics of quantitative and qualitative methods, and of their combination (multi-method approach), pointing to the potentials and limitations in this combination, and I conclude describing two studies as examples: a classic research for excellence (Distinction: A social critique of the judgment of taste), in which Bourdieu (1977b) used a combination of methods to verify the determinants of cultural practices, and a more recent study (Corruption and inequality at the crossroad – a Multimethod Study of Bribery and Discrimination in Latin America), in which Fried et al.

    Published 2011-01-01
    “…The paper proposes a confrontation of the work of two authors, Juan José Saer and César Aira, markedly different in the structures of reception their works bring forth, and that we might translate particularly in the way their relationship with “the contemporary” is perceived, resulting in specific placings in certain genealogies and in the production of their respective inscriptions in recent literary history in Latin America. The examination of fictional objects such as Saer’s La pesquisa and Aira’s Parmenides leads one to find ambivalent solicitations of the allegedly historical fact and its relation to fiction that are hereby presented as oportunities to operate critically towards the structures of established reception and criticism of the work of both authors.…”
