Even fewer people know that Central American university students authored colonial agendas and anti-colonial critiques. In fact, Central American students were key actors in shaping ideas of nation, empire, and global exchange. Bridging a half-century of student protest from 1929 to 1983, this source reader contains more than sixty texts from Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, and Costa Rica, including editorials, speeches, manifestos, letters, and pamphlets. Available for the first time in English, these rich texts help scholars and popular audiences alike to rethink their preconceptions of student protest and revolution. The texts also illuminate key issues confronting social movements today: global capitalism, dispossession, privatization, development, and state violence.Key FeaturesMakes available for the first time to English-language readers a diverse archive of more than sixty foundational documents and ephemera accompanied by an introduction, section introductions and further readingExpands the geographic scope of anti-colonial movement scholarship by presenting anti-colonial thought in the most contentious decades of the 20th century from a region peripheral even within anti-colonial and postcolonial studiesAdvances anti-colonial and postcolonial studies by taking urban students as critical actors and so recasting thematics of the peasantry, the rural/urban divide, and religionSuggests a new social movement chronology beyond the so-called Global 1968," or the common notion that student movements peaked in May 1968 in Paris, New York City, Berkeley, and Mexico City" 410 0$aKey texts in anti-colonial thought. 606 $aAnti-imperialist movements$zCentral America$xHistory$y20th century$vSources 606 $aStudent movements$zCentral America$xHistory$y20th century$vSources 607 $aCentral America$2fast 615 0$aAnti-imperialist movements$xHistory 615 0$aStudent movements$xHistory 676 $a378.198109728 700 $aVrana$b Heather, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01713884 702 $aVrana$b Heather A. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910806816403321 996 $aAnti-colonial texts from Central American student movements, 1929-1983$94107206 997 $aUNINA
