Abstract
Latin American Philosophy: How History and Culture Shape Philosophy and the Differences Between Latin America and the United States
The cultural and historical differences between Latin America and the United States change the way these cultures view and practice philosophy. The cultural traditions and values in Latin America are different than the values traditionally promoted in the United States. There are differences in culture and history between Latin America and white America, but those differences can be used to bring us together to create a community.
My paper explores those differences in more detail and provides examples of ways that those differences can be used to facilitate understanding and create a relationship and community between Latin American people and the United States, namely white Americans.
