This article provides a broad overview of social, economic, and cultural politics in Latin America, especially concentrating on what became known as the Latin American literary “boom” in the 1960s and 1970s, and the region’s political context - colonial past, neocolonial/neoliberal present, the role of intellectuals within the state and cultural affairs. The second part focuses on Roberto Bolaño - the writer who put Latin American literature on the world map which has not been seen since the boom years - and his novel The Savage Detectives. The aim of this article is to demonstrate that literature not only shares common elements and possible intentions with social and political critique, but that it can also be an effective form of social and political criticism. In such a case, Bolaño’s work may be read not as inferior fictional account but as a complex, intersectional investigation of socioeconomic as well as ontological condition in Latin America that other modes of inquiry may overlook.

Šis straipsnis plačiai apžvelgia socialinę, ekonominę ir kultūrinę politiką Lotynų Amerikoje, skiriant daug dėmesio septintojo ir aštuntojo dešimtmečio literatūrinio „bumo” fenomenui, bei regiono politiniam kontekstui - kolonijinei praeičiai, neokolinijinei/ neoliberaliai dabarčiai, intelektualų rolei valdžios ir kultūros sferose. Antroji straipsnio dalis koncentruojasi ties Roberto Bolaño (ir jo romanu Pašėlę detektyvai), rašytoju, kuris paženklino Lotynų Ameriką pasauliniame literatūros žemėlapyje mastu, panašiu į sėkmingiausius bumo pavyzdžius. Šio straipsnio tikslas yra parodyti, kad literatūra ne tik gali sietis bendrais elementais ir galimais tikslais su socialine ir politine kritika, bet kad ir gali būti efektyvi sociopolitinės kritikos forma. Tokiu atveju, Bolaño darbai gali būti perskaityti ne tik kaip antrarūšė fi kcija, bet kaip ir daugiasluoksnis tyrimas apie socioekenominę bei ontologinę Lotynų Amerikos būklę, kurios kiti tyrimo būdai gali ir neužčiuopti.
