Now in its fifth edition, this leading reader has been updated to include new readings and visual sources. This edition includes a new chapter, "Nature and Protest," on current social movements to help students reflect on the ecological realities that inform their world. In addition, the "Legacies of Colonialism" chapter has been restored to give students an understanding of the deep roots of the problems explored. The reader's unique and successful chapter organization provides a thematic complement to narrative accounts of modern Latin American history. By focusing each chapter on a single concept or interpretive problem-such as nationalism, slavery, or social revolution-the text engages students in the analysis of historical sources and, at the same time, introduces them to the twists and turns of historiography. With its innovative combination of primary and secondary sources and thoughtful editorial analysis, this text is designed specifically to stimulate critical thinking in a wide range of courses on Latin American history since independence.
James A. Wood is professor of Latin American history at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in Greensboro. Anna Rose Alexander is assistant professor of history at California State University, East Bay.
