Belonging to a land to come: Aesthetic experience, autochthony and social emancipation

This article aims to discuss the relations between aesthetic experience and social emancipation from the point of view of the problems concerning the production of autochthony. The main question is: how aesthetic experience can produce a land, a space and a people? The article focuses specially in some peripheral modernists strategies as we can find in the music of Bela Bartok. These strategies are object of comparative considerations with another peripheral modernism as we can see in Brazilian modernism.
