Title: The other West
Description: **The Other West** provides a provocative new interpretation of Latin America history and the region's place in the changing global world, from the discovery of America into the twenty-first century. Using a multidisciplinary analysis this book sheds new light on historical processes and explains how this vast expanse of territory became Europeanized in the colonial period, and how the European and American civilizations transformed one another as they grew together. The interpretation moves deftly beteween economic policy, politics, urbanization, race, family life, and education to offer a striking retelling of the history of globalization.
