In this epic intellectual history, Enrique Krauze presents the major ideas that have formed the modern Latin-American political mind. From early post-colonial revolutionary movements, to Marxism and socialism, to the liberal democracy of recent decades, Krauze examines the ways in which ideologies have been embodied by influential politicians, activists, artists, and writers.
Redeemers highlights major thinkers from throughout Central and South America, including José Vasconcelos, José Martí and Gabriel Garcia Márquez, and controversial figures from Che Guevara to Hugo Chávez. This sweeping overview connects Latin America’s political past to its present and looks ahead into a hopeful but uncertain future.
