- W2499972646 abstract "Placing Latin America might sound like an odd place to start. After all, we all know where Latin America is situated on the global map. But when we dig a bit deeper, even the term “Latin America” itself is doubtful given the non-Latin origins of many of its peoples. We thus do need to situate this world zone politically, historically, and culturally if we are to understand its specific characteristics. What is probably most noticeable is how the very different “placings” of Latin America that have been developed, seemingly coexist without apparent strains or contradictions. First we look at Latin America as part of the “West,” albeit a backward zone that still has not undergone the full modernization treatment and achieved modernity, defined in fairly ethnocentric ways. This is the classic modernization theory view and one that underlies much of the area-studies approaches to Latin America. We then counterpose to this a view of Latin America as part of the “East,” a semicolonial “Third World” region or, one that is posited as an exotic exemplar of magical realism, the Other to the West. Indigenismo can be read, for example, as a new form of Orientalism. Much as the West needed Orientalism to create its own identity, Latin America needs indigenismo to become what it is. We can also then pursue an analysis based on the route of hybridity in which Latin America is seen to be “Betwixt” and between the West and the East, sharing some characteristics of both in a novel form of cultural mestizaje." @default.
