Abstract

Using the case of the United Fruit Company as an example of the fusion of the interests of the state and transnational corporations, this article attempts to show the continuity of colonization processes in Latin America. We analize the presence of the company in several countries of Central and South America during the 20th century in order to observe one of the most contemporary forms of the idea of coloniality in today's reality. The study will be structured as follows: the first section describes colonialism from a historical point of view, presenting the first phase of the presence of the powers in Latin America and analyzing it from a postcolonial perspective. In a second moment we address the case of the United Fruit Company in Latin American countries and the profound consequences it left on the ground. The third part presents the main argument showing the continuity of the colonial process in the region in the twenty-first century.
