Reviews

""A great new resource for present and future teachers and students about an exciting and important emerging field in philosophy."" — Gregory Fernando Pappas, Editor-in-Chief of the Inter-American Journal of Philosophy (IJP), Texas A&M University, USA ""Latin American and Latinx Philosophy fills a huge hole in our existing English language resources. The detail of the essays, the expansive coverage of topics, the superb philosophical analysis and the excellent introductory overviews will make this volume vital for everyone with an interest in this area. Bravo!"" — Linda Martín Alcoff, Hunter College, USA ""This is an appealing place for the interested reader to get started with some of the rich and fascinating episodes in the history of philosophy in Latin America, as well as some of the exciting recent work on Latinx philosophy in the U.S. The contributions map out an impressive cross-section of philosophical questions, historical periods, geographical regions, and methodological approaches. Throughout, the volume engages in an insightful discussion of the role of history, politics, and identity in the formation of philosophical traditions. It also advances the metaphilosophical debate concerning the self-conception of this emerging field."" — Clinton Tolley and Manuel Vargas, The Mexican Philosophy Lab at UC San Diego, USA
