Through a collection of critical essays, this work explores twelve keywords central in Latin American and Caribbean Studies:indigenismo, Americanism, colonialism, criollismo, race, transculturation, modernity, nation, gender, sexuality, testimonio, and popular culture. The central question motivating this work is how to think-epistemologically and pedagogically-about Latin American and Caribbean Studies as fields that have had different historical and institutional trajectories across the Caribbean, Latin America, and the United States. | Critical Terms In Caribbean And Latin American Thought by Yolanda Martínez-san Mi, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
