Latin America has provided one of the most dynamic and exciting regions for debating paths of development and democratisation, two processes that have been widely disputed since the region emerged from the shadows of military governments in the early 1980s. This module examines the wealth of knowledges and the key fault lines that have emerged within and about the region since the 1980s, paying particular attention to the period of the so-called left turn (1998-2015).
