Historical and Institutional Trajectories

Redaktion: Martínez-San Miguel, Yolanda; Belausteguigoitia, Marisa; Sifuentes-Jáuregui, Ben.

Beschreibung

Through a collection of critical essays, this work explores twelve keywords central in Latin American and Caribbean Studies: indigenismo, Americanism, colonialism, criollismo, race, transculturation, modernity, nation, gender, sexuality, testimonio, and popular culture. The central question motivating this work is how to think-epistemologically and pedagogically-about Latin American and Caribbean Studies as fields that have had different historical and institutional trajectories across the Caribbean, Latin America, and the United States.
