Latin American philosophy is best understood as a type of applied
philosophy devoted to issues related to the culture and politics of
Latin America. This introduction provides a comprehensive overview
of its central topics. It explores not only the unique insights
offered by Latin American thinkers into the traditional
pre-established fields of Western philosophy, but also the many
'isms' developed as a direct result of Latin American thought. Many
concern matters of practical ethics and social and political
philosophy, such as Lascasianism, Arielism, Bolivarism, modest and
immodest feminisms, republicanism, positivism, Marxism, and
liberationism. But there are also meta-philosophical 'isms' such as
originalism and perspectivism. Together with clear and accessible
discussions of the major issues and arguments, the book offers
helpful summaries, suggestions for further reading, and a glossary
of terms. It will be valuable for all readers wanting to explore
the richness and diversity of Latin American philosophy.
