Details: | What can happen when democracy breaks down? Democracies are fragile, and they rest on certain consensual beliefs and understandings which need constant reinforcement. The exhibition will document the breakdown of democratic government and the imposition of military dictatorships in the South American countries of Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Bolivia during the 1960s, ‘70s, and ‘80s. It will also explore how people across the globe fought to restore democracy in these areas. The exhibition draws heavily on the rich resources available at the Center for Southwest Research at the University of New Mexico, featuring brightly colored patchwork textiles, posters, and other political ephemera from across Latin America.
