#210 El Nacionalismo Como Cuestión Transnacional
By Carlos Floria
From the Introduction
The theme of nationalism is present today in intellectual debates, in political analyses, and in recent incidents that have upset national and international public life. And in many other ways, nationalism pervades the lives of all of us.
In Latin America, the theme of nationalism arises constantly. Nationalism emerges in various versions or reformulations -- as seen in an insightful book by Jorge Castañeda, Utopia Unarmed: The Latin American Left After the Cold War -- but it remains omnipresent. The Castañeda book serves as a leftist self-critique such as the ultra-right never engages in and the anti-liberal right fails to achieve, through its refusal to seek out a correct political approach.

Latin America Program
The Wilson Center’s prestigious Latin America Program provides non-partisan expertise to a broad community of decision makers in the United States and Latin America on critical policy issues facing the Hemisphere. The Program provides insightful and actionable research for policymakers, private sector leaders, journalists, and public intellectuals in the United States and Latin America. To bridge the gap between scholarship and policy action, it fosters new inquiry, sponsors high-level public and private meetings among multiple stakeholders, and explores policy options to improve outcomes for citizens throughout the Americas. Drawing on the Wilson Center’s strength as the nation’s key non-partisan policy forum, the Program serves as a trusted source of analysis and a vital point of contact between the worlds of scholarship and action.
