About This Book

A concise survey of the continent traces its development from pre-contact indigenous societies through European exploration and conquest, examining Spanish and Portuguese colonial systems, settlement patterns, economic institutions, and relations between colonizers and native populations. It then follows the decline of imperial control, the wars of independence, and the divergent postcolonial paths that produced republics and an imperial experiment in Brazil, treating major nineteenth-century conflicts and nation-building processes. The work concludes with a panoramic account of social, political, and economic changes that shaped the modern states of the region.
