Latin America: People, Places and Popular Culture

3 credits · Undergraduate Programs

An introduction to Latin America, one of the most diverse and dynamic regions in the world. What is the origin of this diversity? How does this diversity manifest itself in today's places and cultures? An interdisciplinary approach is taken to answering these questions, as the course material integrates archaeology, history, political science, economics, geography, anthropology, and cultural studies to introduce students to the region.
