Book Description
Increasing interest in Latin American studies over the past few decades has caused a potentially overwhelming production of resources. Latin American studies encompasses so many disparate fields that information is often scattered throughout a library's stacks, & difficult to pull together. The Latin American Bibliography incorporates the incredible diversity of studies related to Latin America that have appeared in the last three decades. Beginning with 1970, it superbly organizes numerous subjects into a coherent work, allowing the reader to find initial sources of information on topics related to Latin American history, social issues, economics, politics, & science. In all, over 900 distinct subject areas, from Christopher Columbus Celebrations to Foreign Debt to The Oil Crisis to the Falkland/Malvinas War, are included in over 8000 entries.

Book Description
A unique contribution to the study of sport, this bibliography contains more than 1300 citations of books, articles, documents, unpublished theses, and other sources relating to the practice and study of sport in Latin America from before the European conquest to the present. The majority of the citations include annotations designed to convey information about the contents, special features, and interpretive or ideological thrust of the publication listed. Selected studies of sport and recreation in the Iberian peninsula and within the Hispanic communities of North America are also included, along with 40 unannotated general and theoretical studies which provide useful background information for those just beginning their study of sport. Materials cited are written principally in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, with some selections in French, Italian, and German. Following an introductory section on the theory and history of sport, the bibliography is divided into six principal parts covering indigenous traditions, the Iberian background of Latin American sport, the colonial era, the national period, Hispanic sports in the United States, and current Latin American sports periodicals. The section on the national period is further subdivided by country. In each section, the general criteria for inclusion was that the work in question offer some analytical perspective or contain material which would help to develop such a perspective. In cases where historical or analytical studies were unavailable technical manuals or rule books were included to demonstrate the practice of certain sports and games in certain periods. Subject and author indexes facilitate access to the main listings. As the most comprehensive list of sources available on the subject of Latin American sport, this volume will be indispensable to researchers and students in the field.

Latin America, 1983-1987
Author: Robert DelormePublisher: Greenwood
ISBN: 0313264066
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The crisis in Central America and the Caribbean has led to an increased number of books, articles, and studies on Latin America. The role of the United States in Latin America, both in history and at the present time, is receiving new attention and examination. Renewed interest in the foreign policies of Latin American countries and in democracy and redemocratization is reflected in the literature. This comprehensive reference is intended as a sequel to two previously published works: Latin America, 1967-1979: Social Science Information Sources and Latin America, 1979-1983: A Social Science Bibliography. It contains titles of books, monographs, articles, and chapters that have been published through 1987, and it provides up-to-date and in-depth listings of available materials on Latin America. This expansive work will prove especially useful for university and college faculties as well as for librarians who provide guidance to students researching Latin America.
