Produktinformationen zu „Latin America “
This is a broad introduction to Latin America, ranging from religion and history to literature and education, with a focus on cultures and cultural change. With lively prose and a variety of informative inserts, Williamson draws the reader in to the diverse realities of a continent in flux. The text is held together by a strong theoretical framework, and does not shy away from the complexity of the continent, or the degree of contingency, conflict, and turmoil at play in the region. Williamson manages to allow individual countries to take their own shape, while not shying away from generalizing about the continent in a way which allows the reader to compare Latin America to other regions with which he/she might be more familiar and contextualize the information and ideas which are presented.
