Course Descriptions

The course is designed for the discussion of a range of contemporary issues in the governance and society of modern Latin America, including the studies on cultural, social, and economic development for the countries in the region. Beginning in 1492, its conquest by the Spanish and Portuguese created a totally new social order based on domination, hierarchy, and the intermingling of European, African, and indigenous elements. After World War II, more analysts worked on describing Latin American economic growth and cultural traditions originated from their Spanish and Portuguese heritage. This course is designed deliberately to accommodate to the discretion and expertise of the instructor concerned, which would lead students to think and understand Latin American governance and society in a broad-gauge approach.
