Why does colonialism matter to the fields of Latin American studies and American studies? What have been the consequences of colonialism for the nations that make up the Western Hemisphere? This course offers a comparative analysis of colonial ventures and their consequences in the Americas. Topics to be investigated include the encounters of indigenous, European, and African peoples; the formation of colonial societies and syncretic systems of belief; independence movements and the emergence of nation-states. Diverse theoretical and methodological approaches allow us to approach critical issues of coloniality and postcoloniality, as they are embedded in cultural and material forms, from an interdisciplinary perspective. |
