While histories of the \"other\" Americas often link disparate histories through revolutionary or tragic narratives, \u003cem\u003eLatin America since Independence\u003c\/em\u003e begins with the assumption that our efforts to imagine a common past for nearly thirty countries are deeply problematic. Without losing sight of chronology or regional trends, this text offers glimpses of the Latin American past through eleven carefully selected stories. Each chapter introduces students to a specific historical issue, which in turn raises questions about the history of the Americas as a whole.
