THE BICENTENNIAL: CELEBRATION OR COMMEMORATION
2010 is the year of the bicentennial, of independence revolutions in Latin America. It was a long process whose history goes back to the early years of the Portuguese-Spanish Conquest, with the countless indigenous insurrections of black slaves and resulted in the end of Spanish rule in these lands. Now we ask ourselves: Did this process emerge as truly independent? It is true, that it did away with the Spanish monarchy, but the fact remains that it established (steps were already being taken) the domain of other European powers and then the U.S. Several reasons were an influence for this to happen.
