Introduces major themes from a humanistic and universal perspective, putting each subject in a context that readers can understand and relate to. Focuses on 'Ibero-America'--Brazil and the eighteen countries that were formerly Spanish possessions--while offering valuable comparative views of the non-Iberian areas of the Caribbean. Emphasizes the global, regional and national dimensions of the region's recent past"--, Provided by publisher"Provides a fresh approach and a new interpretation of the seismic changes of the last 40 years in Latin America"--, Provided by publisher
