 John Perivolaris, Puerto Rican Cultural Identity and the Work of Luis Rafael Sanchez   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Fredric Jameson famously, and controversially, argued that "all third-world texts are necessarily.
Indeed, Perivolaris portrays Sánchez as the uneasy inheritor of the creole nationalism articulated most powerfully by Pedreira and René Marques (and, before them, by Eugenio María de Hostos).
Yet to undo the populism that is the political legacy of movements such as Luis Muñoz Marín's modernising Partido Popular Democrático (itself anticipated by Pedreira), Sánchez has to make recourse to the same terrain that nurtures populism: popular culture, in both its (Afro)Caribbean vibrancy, and its susceptibility to the blandishments of US mass culture.
