| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 1580 This course traces the debates over land use, property rights, and agrarian reform that have been at the forefront of modern political strife and Indigenous activism in the Americas. We will explore how Latin America’s poor have supported socialism as an alternative to capitalist exploitation, as a strategy to break colonial vestiges, and an anti-imperialist ideology. The course focuses on various case studies to address the meaning of socialism, how nationalist governments and grassroots movements have pursued socialistic policies to redistribute land, and who has fought against it.
