description The study of El traductor [The Translator] focuses the relationship between Latin American neoliberalism and literature. Nevertheless, neoliberalism as the main economic and political hegemonic system in the region since 1940’s, it has not been studied in connection with literature. In this paper, the History of neoliberalism reforms are considered where it has been criticized their ideological support. At the same time, it is exposed the patterns presented in Benesdra work related to Latin American neoliberalism. The result is an approach of how the author represented the power of neoliberalism in different scopes like social frameworks, labour sphere, emotional scenarios, and political and cultural contexts. Additionally, it is outlining Brenesda’s critical view of neoliberalism.

A pesar de que el neoliberalismo ha sido el sistema económico dominante y la ideología hegemónica en América Latina durante los últimos cuarenta años, son pocos los estudios que abordan su relación con la literatura latinoamericana; de allí el interés de estudiar El traductor de Salvador Benesdra. Para tal fin, el análisis se apoya en los críticos que han historiado las reformas neoliberales (Harvey, Escalante Gonzalbo), en los que han cuestionado sus fundamentos ideológicos (Ahmed, Laval y Dardot) y, también, en los que se han ocupado de la obra de Benesdra (Avaro, Vitagliano). El resultado es una lectura de cómo Benesdra, durante la década de 1990, realiza una representación del nuevo orden neoliberal en diferentes ámbitos sociales (el laboral, el afectivo, el político, el cultural) y una reflexión respecto a la crítica que articula sobre este tema. En última instancia, también se muestran los vasos comunicantes existentes entre el neoliberalismo y la literatura latinoamericana. Apesar de que o neoliberalismo tem sido o sistema econômico dominante e a ideologiahegemônica na América Latina durante os últimos quarenta anos, são poucos os estudos que abordam a sua relação com a literatura latino-americana; dali o interesse por estudar O tradutorde Salvador Benesdra.
