anti-colonial movements in Latin America  

Definition

  • From the early nativist revitalization uprisings to the wars of independence, Latin America has been the stage of numerous, variegated, and complex anticolonial movements. Reflecting the multiethnic, multicultural, and conflictive nature of their societies, anti-colonial struggles were propelled by an impressive diversity of political views and utopian agendas.
