Social Sciences and Humanities Addressing Latin America's Challenges (Volume II)
Keywords:
Transdisciplinarity, Resilience, Structural Crisis, Latin America, Social Justice.Synopsis
This book presents a collection of transdisciplinary research that addresses the complexities and challenges of Latin America in the 21st century. The studies analyze, from critical and diverse perspectives, the tensions between historical structures and emerging dynamics in the economic, political, social, and cultural spheres. Among the explored topics are the sustainability of peasant economies, labor precarity in globalized industries, symbolic disputes over identity and territory, as well as crises of democratic representation and struggles for memory and justice. The work also examines phenomena such as transnational cultural influence, challenges of economic formalization, configurations of local power, and structural violence against women and communities. The volume does not merely diagnose problems; it proposes reconstructive perspectives that emphasize social agency, community resilience, and the search for alternatives for a region in constant transformation. It constitutes a fundamental contribution to understanding the intersections between crisis, resistance, and the pursuit of more inclusive and just horizons in the current Latin American context.
