Latin America has always been a source of inspiration for those people working to build a better society. In spite of the colonial heritage and the deep division that runs through the societies of the region, innovative theories and iniciatives emerged and came to influence many aspects of the global social science and humanities of our time. This course aims to survey principal topics related to development and Latin America, covering the contemporary issues of the region especially from a focus on development and social change.
(We plan to do this course on-campus in the spring semester 2021.)
