HIST 363 - The Global Sixties in Latin America

FC SSCI CD WADV
4 credits
This course covers the upheavals and transformations of the period historians call the long 1960s (roughly 1955-1975) across Latin America, looking at radical movements, the counterculture, and their repression; gender and student movements; transnational anti-colonialism; and the tremendous impact of the Cuban Revolution. We will focus especially on cultural production from the period, examining how artists, filmmakers, and composers sought to depict history and effect change. We will also consider the history versus memorialization of the so-called Global Sixties. Country focus will be Cuba, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and Chile.
