A subject I´ve enjoyied studyngthis semester

At school, I always loved history, that can explain a little my preference for the subjet of Social History of Latin America, imparted by Octavio Avendaño Pavéz, sociology and teacher of history and geaografy, with a doctorate in political science. 

In this class we analysis diverse process in the continent, trying to understand the present social structures and dynamics. To get this, we pass diferent contents. Starting with the colonial perody, the independentist movements, oligarchic supremacy, the graet revolutions of the continent and violent rebellions, populism and military dictatorships.

In the semester, we hace to do three tests. Until this date, we already made two of this. The truth is that in every class, the people that assist is not much, because the attendance acording to the teacher, is not obligatory.

I love this subjetc because, as I say at the beginning, I really love te historic process and understand how an why that process ocur. Also, I think this class is very important beacause our continent have characteristics very especifics and differents to the rest of continents. Thats the reason for we have to discover this characteristics and apply this and not follow the traditional and european methods of sociology.
