This unique collection of diverse readings and exclusive interviews focuses on the dynamic tension between tradition and change in contemporary Latin American culture -- from the Caribbean to Central and South America, including Brazil. The thematic approach of Tradici"n y cambio identifies key issues in Latin American culture and uses the readings to ask how those issues, such as urbanization or the changing role of the family -- alter, enrich, or confound the traditional cultural values and instititions.
