The essay aims to reflect on the Regional Integration in Latin America: first, by stressing the sense of the concept of "Latin America" from a political perspective; then, by underlining the complex nature of this process. The thesis that is intended to be argued is that the most important advances in the field of regional integration have been produced by the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, in part by abandoning the European integration model

This article seeks to reflect on the methodological problem that dealing with political concepts with a particular historical and geographical frame entails. After stating how conceptual history, German in its origins, has given rise to different lines of thought throughout the Western World, especially in Europe, we explore how this conceptual approach can be used to address political concepts in Latin America from a philosophical-political perspective. ; Questo articolo si propone di discutere il problema metodologico dell'approccio ai concetti politici all'interno di un particolare contesto storico e geografico. A partire dal fatto che la storia concettuale, originariamente tedesca, ha dato origine a specifici percorsi in tutto il mondo occidentale, e soprattutto nel resto d'Europa, ci chiediamo come questo approccio concettuale possa essere utilizzato quando si affrontano i concetti politici in America Latina da una prospettiva filosofico-politica.

The Escazú Agreement, the first environmental treaty to order that signatory States render available all information on the projects which may have an environmental impact, guarantee that citizens participate in decisional processes and adopt measures to protect defenders of indigenous environments and peoples, entered into force on 22 April 2021. Building on these premises, the paper reports some data with the aim of briefly tracing the framework in which environmental activists work. These, together with indigenous peoples, oppose the extractivist development model adopted by the region's government in the last twenty years, which has had – and still has – a significant impact on the environment, has increased social conflicts, and triggered a violence spiral against environmentalists and some indigenous communities, thus transforming Latin America into the most dangerous place for those who protect the environment ; The Escazú Agreement, the first environmental treaty to order that signatory States render available all information on the projects which may have an environmental impact, guarantee that citizens participate in decisional processes and adopt measures to protect defenders of indigenous environments and peoples, entered into force on 22 April 2021.

Nel quadrimestre in considerazione (settembre-dicembre) si sono presi in esame i principali avvenimenti politico-istituzionali avvenuti in America Latina e in particolare la crisi economica e le elezioni del 27 ottobre in Argentina; la crisi politica avvenuta in Bolivia a seguito delle elezioni del 20 ottobre; la rivolta sociale che attraversa il Cile dal 4 ottobre come conseguenza dell'aumento del prezzo dei biglietti della metropolitana; le decisioni politiche del chavismo di Maduro e i rapporti del Governo ufficiale con l'opposizione in Venezuela. L'analisi si conclude con un approfondimento sui più importanti avvenimenti istituzionali e le principali riforme avvenuti in Messico, a cui si rimanda nelle specifiche sezioni dedicate alle istituzioni.

This article deals with some aspects of political–diplomatic relations between Italy and Latin America in the period between the immediate post–World War II period and the mid–1950s. This is a period not yet investigated by historiography, except for some works by Aldo Albónico, based on a first analysis of the Italian diplomatic documentation – which date back to the end of the 1980s – and the subsequent ones by Ludovico Incisa di Camerana. The article is based, as well as on the existing literature, on the collection of Italian diplomatic documents, to date until June 30, 1952, and, as regards the Chilean case, on the documents available at the Historical–Diplomatic Archives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

A partire da una ricostruzione della parabola storica della scolarizzazione delle popolazioni indigene in Messico nel corso del XX secolo, paradigmatica di molti casi analoghi in America Latina, il saggio cerca una chiave di lettura critica del paradigma dell'interculturalità che dalla fine del '900 ha dominato in maniera piuttosto uniforme le politiche educative per i popoli indigeni in molti paesi del continente. Attraverso un 'uso sperimentale' della teoria della "riproduzione" di Pierre Bourdieu in contesti educativi indigeni latino-americani, vengono evidenziati da una parte i limiti di questa stessa teoria una volta che la si 'esporta' in contesti nazionali extraeuropei, e dall'altra come le scuole indigene possano essere, prima che luoghi della 'riproduzione' della 'forma Stato', anche luoghi di resistenza e di rivendicazione identitaria, che passa attraverso un quotidiano scolastico spesso assai lontano dagli standard istituzionali.
