- Abstract
The article reports on the garbage, residuals and pollution in the cultural formations of Latin America. Most of the theories of culture that deal with garbage describe it as a product of an automatic cultural economy that would constitute a simultaneous process of recovery and garbage. Culture, according to these positions, but above all modernity, amounts to the permanent creation of abject opposite, submerged, secondary, segregated worlds, being the name of what the symbolic-cultural orders repress in favor of his identity and perpetuation.
