Synopsis

This best selling text for introductory Latin American history courses mixes a chronological and a national approach to explore the background of this fascinating region. The text's integrating framework is the dependency theory, which stresses the economic relationship between Latin American nations and wealthier nations, particularly the United States.

The book provides in-depth coverage of society and culture in Latin America and their impact on population, settlement, trade, communication, and economic and political developments.
