This book includes works from Uruguayan playwright Dino Armas that deal with migration and dictatorship matters, as well as interpretive essays written by authors who specialize in Latin American literature, theater, psychology, and history. The compilation also includes two interviews with Armas. Examining this group of texts is a way to enter Dino Armas's world in order to inquire into local and universal human conflicts. Each work confronts us with human complexities that intertwine with social and historical realities to provide a profound and authentic commentary on migration and dictatorship issues. The book includes texts from the author that allude to or deal with the European migration to Uruguay during the 19th century and the beginnings of the 20th , and works that examine the realities of the more recent migrations from Uruguay towards Europe, Australia, and other destinations. The former happened mainly as a way to escape the horrors of war and poverty in Europe. The latter were due primarily to political issues (during the military dictatorship years: 1973-1985) and economic ones (especially in the 1980's, and as a consequence of the 2002 crisis).This book constitutes a shared stage of reflection, analysis, collaboration, and affection for the playwright Dino Armas, the Hispanic culture, and a universal multicultural heritage.
