Course Description
This course analyzes the identity projects that have sought to define "being Mexican." It begins with the arrival of Europeans in the 16th century and their political and cultural attempt to homogenize the diverse cultural identities of the territory under the category of "Indian." The course examines the history of ideas as well as the epistemic, ontological and phenomenal frameworks that have accompanied this process of identity construction and its consequences throughout the history of Mexico.
