ANTH 141 PZ -Land, City, State and State in Latin America

Institution: Pitzer

Description: Desciption: Legal meanings of land in Latin America are integrally connected to the organization of power and to the relationship between citizens and the State. Far from a forgotten past, these systems set the stage for social, economic, and political relations that continue today. Contestations over access to land and resources have been central to Latin American revolutions, and social and political movements since Independence. This course considers the ways in which legal and affective dimensions of property shape urban space, the nation, and everyday life in Latin America.
