Les sciences ­humaines et ­sociales en ­Amérique latine, xxe siècle

Social sciences and humanities in Latin America, 20th century
Edited by Rafael Mandressi

This dossier of the Revue d'histoire des sciences humaines aims to contribute to exploring the historical constitution and development of the social sciences and humanities in Latin America in the 20th century. The six articles gathered here address the processes of construction and institutionalization of these disciplines in different periods and spaces, marked, among other things, by national academic traditions and particular political and ideological contexts. The analyses pay special attention to the actors, their practices and strategies, to national structures, policies, and systems of academic organization, to transnational networks and institutions, to exchanges and connections between Latin American spaces and other regions of the world, to international cooperation and funding programs and their influence on the orientations of intellectual production. In this way, this series of case studies also shed light on local as well as continent-wide theoretical debates and their transformations.
