Transnational perspectives on Latin America
the entwined histories of a multi-state region
The book addresses the entwined histories of a multistate region, exploring the development of Latin American societies in terms of the twin processes of nation-state building and transnational connections. Its chapters analyze persisting forms of circulation, transmission and articulation of networks, practices and ideas across international borders. Among the topics covered are political exiles, international wars and the diffusion of conspiracy theories, the transnational imprint of the Cold War and democratization, the new social movements, geopolitical alliances and their impact on the standing of Jewish and Muslim citizens. The book closes with a chapter on transnational challenges and twenty-first century dilemmas, including the process of segmented regional integration, the vitality and limits of citizenship regimes, state accountability and pandemic politics.
