Latin American political thought  

Definition(s)

  • Latin American thinkers have always engaged themselves with the main intellectual currents emanating first from Europe and later from the United States, adapting them to their particular societies. After securing independence from Spain and Portugal, the region confronted the challenges associated with nation-building, while liberal and conservative parties, founded in many countries, provided contrasting views.
