Europeans first conceived of America, the continent, as a fresh slate on which to build a new and better society. Latin America has been hoping to fulfill the utopian dream tolerating, at times, the most extreme measures to achieve peace and order. Our inquiry will examine both the construction of nation, from the 1880s, as well as the process of personal formation and self-definition taking into account factors like race, gender and social class.
