Abstract:
El presente artículo analiza la relación contemporánea entre las características societales de América Latina y la producción de teoría social que se genera en el continente. A partir de una breve descripción de una de las respuestas teóricas más desarrolladas y difundidas en el continente durante las últimas décadas, el poscolonialismo, se entiende el problema de la producción de conocimiento como una interrelación entre sociedad y teoría social. El análisis del caso latinoamericano muestra, por un lado, un vacío teórico en el continente, y, por otro, la existencia de un régimen de conocimiento precario, débil y poco desarrollado. Esto nos lleva a repensar el problema de la teoría social latinoamericana desde una nueva perspectiva, que reconozca la existencia de la ciencia universal, abandonando la idea misma de teoría social latinoamericana y reemplazándola por la idea de teoría social realizada por latinoamericanos. Palabras clave: teoría social, poscolonialismo, régimen de conocimiento, América Latina, producción de conocimiento. Social theory and knowledge regime. Reviewing the Latin American post-colonialism Abstract This article analyzes the contemporary relationship between the social characteristics of Latin America and the production of social theory generated in the Continent. By a short description of one of the most developed and widespread theoretical responses on the Continent during the last decades –post-colonialism– we understand the issue of knowledge production as interrelated between society and social theory. On the one hand, the analysis of the Latin American case shows a theoretical void in the Continent, and, on the other, the existence of a knowledge regime that is precarious, weak and underdeveloped. This leads us to think again about the subject of Latin American social theory from a new perspective that recognizes the existence of a universal science abandoning the very idea of Latin American social theory and replacing it with the idea of social theory carried out by Latin Americans. Keywords: Social theory, post-colonialism, knowledge regime, Latin America, knowledge production. Teoria social e regimem do conhecimento.

Abstract:
The Quandary of 1492The year 1492 evokes a powerful symbolism.1The symbolism is most charged, of course, among peoples whose historical memory connects them directly to the forces unleashed in 1492. For indigenous Americans, Latin Americans, minorities of Latino or Hispanic descent, and Spaniards and Portuguese, the sense of connection is strong. The year 1492 symbolises a momentous turn in historical destiny: for Amerindians, the ruinous switch from independent to colonised history; for Iberians, the launching of a formative historical chapter of imperial fame and controversy; for Latin Americans and the Latino diaspora, the painful birth of distinctive cultures out of power-laden encounters among Iberian Europeans, indigenous Americans, Africans, and the diverse offspring who both maintained and blurred the main racial categories.But the symbolism extends beyond the Americas, and beyond the descendants of those most directly affected. The arrival of Columbus in America symbolises a historical reconfiguration of world magnitude. The fusion of native American and European histories into one history marked the beginning of the end of isolated stagings of human drama. Continental and subcontinental parameters of human action and struggle, accomplishment and failure, would expand into a world stage of power and witness. The expansion of scale revolutionised cultural and ecological geography. After 1492, the ethnography of the humanoid other proved an even more central fact of life, and the migrations of microbes, plants and animals, and cultural inventions would transform the history of disease, food consumption, land use, and production techniques.2In addition, the year 1492 symbolises the beginnings of the unique world ascendance of European civilisation.

Abstract:
The evolution of Latino print media in Spain has coincided with the demographic increase of Latin American immigrants in the country since the early 1990s. Starting with one publication in 1992, the market started to grow in 2003 and reached its peak in 2007 with the edition of more than 100 titles. The advertising crisis of 2008 ended this trend, and the number of publications began a continuous and permanent decline in the following years despite a demographic recovery of Latin Americans in Spain after 2016. This research presents a quantitative analysis of the contents of 1,500 news items from 14 Latino newspapers and magazines that survived the 2008 advertising downfall. Six of these 14 media outlets continue publishing in 2023. The objective of this study is to show the connections between the contents of the analyzed Latino print media and the cultural identities of their readers. The results show that the prevalent themes related to culture, society and politics represent the identities of their Latino readers. Latino publications give visibility to Latinos as the protagonists of their contents. In addition, the origin of the protagonists shows the wide range of Latin American countries in correlation with the diverse Latin American origins of the readers. We discuss the implications of these findings within the volatile context of Latino print media in Spain, the growing Latin American demographics, and the formation of diverse Latino identities.

Abstract:
This essay examines the career and promotion of Mexican actress Dolores Del Rio as a case study of how Hollywood’s shift to sound film affected Latino and Latina actors. Del Rio’s career aptly illustrates the complex negotiations inherent in marketing a Latina star to non-Latinos, even during the “Latin lover” vogue of the 1920s. It also shows how starring opportunities for Latinos dwindled when accent and language increasingly marked them as nonwhite in the talkie films of the 1930s. The cultural racialization of Mexican Americans and other Latinos in the larger society found parallels in the shifting construction and promotion of Latino and Latina stars.

Abstract:
AbstractUsing online Chinese communities as primary sources, this article studies public perceptions in China of Latin America in terms of how the region is seen as part of the Third World while also offering China a convenient backyard by which to access the First World United States. Codified online public opinion on four different Latin American topics is then analysed and compared with official opinion: how “Latin Americanization” becomes China's nightmare, how the Latin Americans should learn from the “China model,” how the Latin Americans were being discriminated in the H1N1 epidemic, and how the “Latin American card” to balance the United States is emphasized. The conclusion suggests that only when the stereotypes discussed in this article are dismissed will the true value of Latin America gradually obtain any standing in the eyes of ordinary Chinese and will the Latin American mission of the Chinese government be fully understood by its subjects.

Abstract:
AbstractAs individuals from different nations increasingly interact with each other, research on national in-group favoritism becomes particularly vital. In a cross-national, large-scale study (N = 915) including representative samples from four Latin American nations (Chile, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela) and the USA, we explore differences regarding nationality-based in-group favoritism. In-group favoritism is assessed through differences in prosocial behavior toward persons from the own nation as compared to persons from other nations in fully incentivized one-shot dictator games. We find strong evidence for national in-group favoritism for the overall sample, but also significant differences among national subsamples. Latin Americans show more national in-group favoritism compared to US Americans (interacting with Latin Americans). While US Americans mainly follow an equal split norm (for both in- and out-group interactions), Latin Americans do so only in in-group interactions. The magnitude of in-group favoritism increases with social distance toward the out-group.

Abstract:
Introduction: Travel Medicine specialty has existed in Latin American for more than 25 years. The creation of the Latin American Society of Travel Medicine (SLAMVI) stimulated medical education in this discipline, through research and scientific publications. However, Travel Medicine is practically unknown to Latin Americans. Methods: Latin Americans (n=9487) completed an online survey of ten questions from nine countries of the region to determine the knowledge of the population about the existence of this specialty and their attitudes about it. Results: Although more than 90% of those surveyed knew that traveling to certain countries requires to receive certain vaccines, less than 30% had heard of the specialty of Travel Medicine. After knowing the definition and objectives of the specialty, more than 90% of the participants considered it important to carry out a pre-travel consultation with a specialist. Conclusion: The lack of knowledge of the specialty is the main barrier to Latin Americans to have access to Travel Medicine consultation. It is necessary to publicize the specialty, make the population aware of the importance of pre- and post-travel consultation, as well as the creation of this service in more public hospitals in Latin America.

Abstract:
While writing in English by Hispanas has been in publication for decades, it is only in the last few years that the writing and its attendant criticism have attracted mainstream attention in the United States. The purpose of this work is to provide an introduction to different facets of Hispana writing. The first section of the work, an essay titled, "Emerging Criticism and Themes in Hispana Literature," provides an up-dated overview of issues within Hispana literary criticism and major themes within the writing itself. The latter part of that essay uses as its framework Tey Diana Rebolledo's 1985 essay, "The Maturing of Chicana Poetry: the Quiet Revolution of the 1980's." The second section of the work consists of four original short stories which reflect some of the general characteristics of Hispana writing. Together, the two parts are intended to provide Canadian scholars with a succinct introduction to this growing field, and thus aid and encourage them to further explore it on their own.

Full text
Abstract:
The peopling of the Americas represents the last major expansion of human populations worldwide. As the first humans moved into the continent they were exposed to new environments requiring them to adapt. The subsequent colonization of the continent by Europeans, along with the African slave trade, involved a major admixture process that was accompanied by new selective pressures, most notably exposure to new pathogens. Applying current and novel methods to genome-wide SNP data of Native and admixed Latin Americans, this PhD thesis provides an analysis of the adaptive history in the Americas. I show that prior to the European contact, candidate regions of selection in Native Americans include genes associated with metabolic traits, highlighting a possible adaptation to dietary changes. Using novel and existing methods to detect selection post-admixture, I show that genes related to immune response were probably under selection in admixed Latin Americans. As an example on the evolution of an adaptive trait, I also conduct a Genome Wide Association Study on a sample of over 6,000 Latin Americans for skin, eye and hair pigmentation. I report eighteen independent genome-wide significant signals of association, including five novel variants. One of the novel variants associated to skin pigmentation is common in East Asians and Native Americans, but is almost absent everywhere else in the world. I show that this variant was selected in East Asians after their split from Europeans, and likely carried by the first Americans to the Americas.

Full text
Abstract:
Catalan is an autochthonous minority language within the Spanish state that is undergoing a programme of linguistic normalisation which is widely regarded as a successful model. Today, its progress is being challenged by globalisation, mass migration, and the sociolinguistic agencies of new migrants, in particular Spanishspeaking Latin Americans, who are allochthonous speakers of marked varieties of the official language of the Spanish state. The micro-level focus of the study is on how Spanish-speaking Latin Americans are constructing Catalan: how Catalan is being incorporated into repertoire (in-group and inter-group), and how and why individuals are forming conflicting constructions of being addressed in Catalan. At the macro level, the focus is on how policies of linguistic normalisation of the Catalan language are responding to the challenges of globalisation, and to the sociolinguistic agencies of new migrants, especially Spanishspeakers. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 44 informants, and recordings made of the interactions of 11 of them. The focus of the data collection was on [i] Spanish-speaking Latin Americans' interactions involving Catalan, [ii] on the paths of migration and of identity formation along which individuals' epistemologies evolve, consolidate and transform, and [iii] on informants' opinions about language policies. The study is framed around 'structure and agency' (Giddens, 1984), and the data analysed according to a view of language as recursive social practice, which links the macro and the micro, seeing individuals' agencies as the outcomes of social structures and also as engendering change in these structures. Central to individuals' recursive language practice is knowledgeability and reflexivity (Giddens, 1984) as they interact in a heteroglossic Catalonia (Pujolar, 2001), and negotiate codeswitching norms of practice that are specific to Catalonia, in particular an 'accommodation norm' (Woolard, 1989) which involves Catalan speakers often switching to Castilian with interlocutors who do not look or sound Catalan.

Granada, Ana. "Latin Americans in London : language, integration and ethnic identity." Thesis, Aston University, 2014. http://publications.aston.ac.uk/24402/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis studies the links between language, migration and integration in the context of the 'new migrant' group of Latin Americans in London. It reviews the many ways in which language impacts the integration processes of migrants by influencing people's access to jobs, services, social contacts and information. By focusing on migrants' experiences this research also investigates the ways in which language and identity articulate, as well as the affective variables that are at play in the acquisition of the local language. With a large sector trapped in a cycle of poor command of English and labour market disadvantage, many Latin Americans experience exclusion and poverty. In reaction to this, a sector of the community is campaigning for ethnic minority recognition. This work reviews the debates for recognition and the strategy of organising around ethnicity, paying special attention to the role language plays in the process. The study is based on over two and half years of qualitative research, which included interviews, surveys, and long-term participant observation within a community organisation and a recognition campaign. Its interdisciplinary perspective allows the recognition of both the intimate links between language and identity, as well as the social and structural forces that influence migrants' linguistic integration. It unveils the practical and symbolic value that the mother tongue has for Latin American migrants and provides a broader account of their experiences. This research calls attention to the need for a more comprehensive approach to the study of language and migration in order to acknowledge the affective and social factors involved in the linguistic practices of migrants. By studying the community's struggles for recognition, this work evidences both the importance of visibility for minority groups in London and the intrinsic methodological limitations of monitoring through ethnic categorisation.

Abstract:
O presente texto objetiva ampliar a discussão sobre o lugar da arte latino-americana no contexto da arte contemporânea. Passada a primeira década do século XXI, evidências percebidas em décadas anteriores ainda se manifestam, diferenciando a produção advinda de países da América Latina em relação às produções de outros países. A ocupação menor de espaços em museus, feiras e coleções por obras e artistas latino-americanos ainda comprovam tal distanciamento.

Esta comunicação está distante de pretender esgotar tema tão abrangente como o é da busca por uma identidade na arte latino-americana, mas almeja comentar alguns pontos que podem elucidar a questão que permeou a produção crítica e teórica na década de 1970. Ao longo dessa década, observa-se um crescente interesse por parte da crítica de arte atuante não apenas na América Latina, mas também nos Estados Unidos, em determinar o “ser” latino-americano e suas consequências imediatas para a arte do continente.

Abstract:
The main objective of this article is to collaborate in the historiographic construction of the development of Regional Planning in Latin America, understood as a thought and an area of activity in the interface between Rural Sociology and Urban Sociology, in the context of the subcontinent starting from the second half of the 20th century. In this sense, the VI Regional Course on Rural Housing, held in Brazil in 1965 through a pioneering partnership between the Centro Interamericano de Vivienda y Planeamiento (CINVA) and the Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste (SUDENE) is taken as a case study. Based on transnational dialogues in the subcontinent and based on the concept of contact zone as coined by Weinstein (2013), the article intends to clarify how the technical and intellectual means related the production and reproduction of Latin American rural spaces to Regional Planning in the subcontinent. Keywords: Regional planning, Rural housing, CINVA, SUDENE. O presente artigo tem como objetivo principal colaborar na construção historiográfica do desenvolvimento do Planejamento Regional na América Latina, compreendido enquanto campo de pensamento e área de atuação possíveis na interface entre a Sociologia Rural e a Sociologia Urbana, no contexto do subcontinente a partir da segunda metade do século XX. Nesse sentido, toma-se como estudo de caso o VI Curso Regional de Habitação Rural, realizado no Brasil em 1965 através de uma parceria pioneira entre o Centro Interamericano de Vivienda y Planeamiento (CINVA) e a Superintendência para o Desenvolvimento do Nordeste (SUDENE). Destacando os diálogos a nível transnacional no subcontinente e partindo do conceito de zona de contato como cunhado por Weinstein (2013), o artigo pretende esclarecer como os meios técnicos e intelectuais relacionaram a produção e reprodução dos espaços rurais latino-americanos ao Planejamento Regional no subcontinente. Palavras chave: Planejamento regional, Habitação rural, CINVA, SUDENE.

Gibbons, Judith. "What We Can Learn about Multiculturalism from Latin American Psychology." In International Association of Cross Cultural Psychology Congress. International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.4087/muqu8642.

Full text
Abstract:
Latin American psychology, although greatly under-represented in international journals, can provide important lessons for international psychologists. Mexican psychologist Rogelio Díaz-Guerrero was one of the first to describe would now be labeled an indigenous psychology. Latin American theorists such as Paolo Freire and Ignacio Martín-Baró have provided frameworks for understanding diversity and multiculturalism among groups with unequal power. Only by critical thinking and critical analysis can we understand and challenge disparate conditions. Relatedly, Latin American psychology often focuses on achieving social justice and solving practical real-world problems. Thus, community and political psychology are strengths of Latin American psychology and have made contributions to the understanding of multiculturalism and activism. Finally, the high proportion of youth in Latin American countries makes their well-being a priority and innovative research has worked to identify and promote talent among young people. Examples of Latin American contributions, personal lessons learned, and suggestions for incorporating knowledge and perspectives from Latin America are highlighted.

Full text
Abstract:
A obra de Braun-Vega leva o leitor a vários percursos de leitura. A partir de uma pintura emergem outros textos - como fragmentos de pinturas de grandes mestres, textos de jornais contemporâneos, imagens de pessoas em suas tarefas cotidianas, imagens e personagens latino-americanos propiciando ao leitor uma rede com imbricações que ele tem de resolver com um trabalho de assimilação e transformação. As questões latino-americanas são postas em diálogo às produções dos grandes mestres, propondo um olhar complexo sobre as relações culturais e sociais entre a erudição européia e a cultura mestiça latinoamericana, entre centro e periferia, entre local e o globalizado. Braun-Vega propõe pensar uma América Latina além da sua territorialidade, língua e diferenças. Propõe um olhar que escava as duas culturas como se retira as camadas de um palimpsesto e deixa que os vários discursos que emergem dessa escavação fiquem à mostra em uma construção em forma de constelação.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to use opinion polls to document Latin Americans' increasing discontent with reforms and to explore possible explanations for this trend. We test four possible explanations for the rejection of reforms. The first focuses on a change in political orientation. The second focuses on a change in political activism on the part of those who oppose reforms. The third focuses on trust in political actors. The fourth focuses on the economic situation. There is also an important set of explanations for the rejection of reforms that we do not consider in this paper.

Bassi, Marina. What Do Latin Americans Think of the IDB? Inter-American Development Bank, October 2007. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0010869.

Full text
Abstract:
Using the Latinobarómetro survey, this paper examines Latin Americans perceptions of the IDB, the World Bank and the IMF. The study analyzes how peoples knowledge and evaluation of these multilateral organizations are affected by the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the respondents, the country where they live, the financial position of the IDB in that country, macroeconomic conditions and interviewees political orientation and attitudes towards democracy and free markets. The results indicate both good and bad news for the IDB. Negatively, it is the least-known of the three international organizations; but positively, it is the best rated among those familiar with them. Demographic variables and socioeconomic levels are important determinants of who knows these organizations. In terms of grading, the demographic characteristics of the respondent seem to have no impact. Conversely, economic status, macroeconomic conditions (to some extent), and the political orientation of the respondent are significant determinants of peoples evaluation.

Abstract:
This paper explores the extent to which individuals trust, reciprocate, cooperate and pool risk by using a battery of field experiments containing the trust game, the voluntary contributions mechanism and the risk pooling game; applied in six capital cities in Latin America. The results suggest that: (i) on average, the propensity to trust and cooperate among Latin Americans is remarkably similar to that found in other regions of the world; (ii) expectations about the behavior of other players are the main driver of trust, reciprocity and cooperation; and (iii) behaviors involving socialization, trust and cooperation are closely interconnected.

This chapter examines the redistributive preferences of Latin Americans and investigates the factors that shape them. Using a detailed survey in eight Latin American countries, the study sheds new light on redistributive preferences and explores which aspects of redistribution are more popular and among which groups. The roles of selfinterest, perceptions of inequality, values, and the relationship between citizens and the public sphere in shaping attitudes to redistribution are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
As part of a Regional Public Good (BPR), 20,200 Latin Americans from 18 countries were interviewed on issues of integration, democracy, equity, environment, technology, and innovation. In a world where globalization is being strongly questioned, particularly among developed countries, it is concluded that Latin Americans are very committed to regional integration. The integration process is challenged by the complexity implied by a heterogeneous regional structure with important differences between countries and within them. The differences are many, ranging from income distribution, productive specialization, the weight of their economies in the regional GDP, belonging to different trade blocs, the preference for certain partners at the time of closer ties, exposure and vulnerability to climate change, to the degree of penetration of ICTs. However, this study shows that there is a common agenda that must be addressed and that can set the pace of regional integration. Social convergence is observed not only in the high support for regional integration and in the existence of an unsatisfied demand for integration, but also in the desire of people to live in a more equitable society, responsible in the use of their natural resources, committed to the fight against climate change and the free movement of people, connected through ICTs and universal access to the Internet, with better quality of democratic institutions, and with greater citizen participation in the decision making process of government and justice. Since this is the agenda for development and regional integration, the opportunity offered by ICTs cannot be overlooked, both in the construction of a subject with a critical conscience, capable of visualizing the problems that afflict it, as well as in its powerful potential to strengthen trade links between countries, strengthen democracy and enhance the development of the region.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper investigates how changes in trade linkages between China, Latin America, and the rest of the world have altered the transmission of international business cycles to Latin America. Evidence based on a GVAR model for five large Latin American economies shows that the long-term impact of a China GDP shock on the typical Latin American economy has increased by three times since the mid-1990s, while the long-term impact of a US GDP shock has halved, while the transmission of shocks to Latin America and the rest of emerging Asia GDP (excluding China and India) has not changed. These changes owe more changes in China's impact on Latin America's traditional and largest trading partners than to increased direct bilateral trade linkages boosted by the decade-long commodity price boom. These findings have important implications for both Latin America and the international business cycle.

Tissot, Roger. Latin America's Energy Future. Inter-American Development Bank, December 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0006946.

Full text
Abstract:
This discussion paper presents a survey of the changes in Latin America's energy consumption over the last 30 years, before considering the trends that will affect the region in the coming decades. It highlights several important issues, including the growing demand for oil, which has prompted a resurgence of resource nationalism and the revitalization of national oil companies in the region. Regional oil policy has also been boosted by the growth of China, which is now a major player in the Latin American energy sector, as both consumer and financier. Natural gas consumption has also grown in recent years, and the discovery of large non-conventional gas reserves will also alter the energy landscape. Overall, the paper concludes that Latin America has adequate resources to meet its rising energy needs. The challenge for national governments, however, is to find a balance of sources that best provides energy security, meets growing demand, is environmentally sustainable, and can be developed at a competitive cost. For the region with the cleanest energy matrix in the world, the paper recommends that national governments focus on developing renewable resources in order to avoid a greater reliance on fossil fuels.

Full text
Abstract:
After posting double digit gains in 2010-2011, Latin America's export growth declined to just 1.5% in 2012 for a total value of slightly more than $1 trillion, according to figures just released by the Integration and Trade Sector of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). These results reflected uneven economic conditions in Latin America's major trade partners. In Europe, economic setbacks resulted in a 5% drop in demand for Latin American exports, while lower growth in the People's Republic of China and the Republic of Korea sharply slowed the region's export growth to Asia as a whole, from 25% in 2011 to only 1% this year. In one bright spot, incipient recovery in the United States fueled growth in Latin American exports to that country by an estimated 3%. The 2012 trade estimates, published in the IDB's Latin American Trade Trend Estimates 2012, are based on partial monthly and quarterly data of 16 Latin American countries from official national and international sources, as well as the Bank's INTrade Information System.
