This volume provides readings from the works of eighteen Latin
American thinkers of the nineteenth century who were engaged in
articulating and examining the problems that Spanish and Portuguese
America faced in the one hundred years after securing independence.
The selections represent all major regions of Latin America.
Although these regions differ significantly with regard to
indigenous background, geography, climate, and available resources,
their people confronted the common problems that surround the
intractable challenges of statecraft and nation building: issues of
race, international relations, economics, education, and
self-understanding. Burke and Humphrey provide fresh, accessible
translations of key works, a majority of which appear for the first
time in English; a General Introduction that sets the works in
historical and intellectual context; detailed headnotes for each
selection; a Guide to Themes; and bibliographic references.
