In this semester, I have six subjects, but there are not a
subject that I really love “with all my heart”. But if a have to choose one of
them, i’d choose Latin American Social History, by the Porfesor Octavio
Avendaño.
The thing that I like
about this subject, is that almost all the content of the subject, I learned in my school, but this time, we
learn the history in a different way, the profesor talk about the social
history. I mean, we dont learn only general information about latin american
history, the teacher put the emphasis in thing that generally doesn’t teach in
school, like how the social groups influence on the history process or the
different interpretattions of historical facts. Thats what we do in the class
and why I like this subject.
The subject starts with the colony period, then we learn
about the Independence, the anarchy period, the time with the oligarchy in the
power, the populism, the authoritarian times, and the structural
changes, and the neoliberal reforms.
Another thing that i like, is learn about another latin
amircan countrys, because before this subject, I didn know much about them,
only about chilean history.
