Ponencias del Segundo Encuentro de Historiadores Latinoamericanos, del 20 al 26 de marzo de 1977 en Caracas, organizado por la Escuela de Historia de la Universidad Central de Venezuela.

Asociación de Historiadores Latinoamericanos y del Caribe (ADHILAC):

Gracias a las gestiones de los organizadores de la reunión fundacional en México, se consiguió desarrollar un II Encuentro, del 20 al 26 de marzo de 1977 en Caracas, organizado por la Escuela de Historia de la Universidad Central de Venezuela, con el respaldo de la Universidad del Zulia y del gobierno venezolano. Alrededor de cuatrocientos delegados y observadores de diferentes países, incluyendo participantes del Caribe –entre ellos, los ya desaparecidos historiadores Manuel Moreno Fraginals y Francisco Pérez Guzmán, los primeros cubanos en incorporarse a las actividades de ADHILAC- se dieron cita en la capital venezolana. Las ponencias de este congreso, celebrado en la Sala de Armas del Círculo Militar de Caracas, fueron después editadas por los organizadores venezolanos encabezados por Germán Carrera Damas y Eduardo Arcila Farías.

Thanks to the efforts of the organizers of the founding meeting of ADHILAC (the Association of Latin American and Caribbean Historians) in Mexico, a Second Meeting was held, from March 20 to 26, 1977 in Caracas, organized by the School of History of the Central University of Venezuela, with the support of the University of Zulia and the Venezuelan government. Around four hundred delegates and observers from different countries, including participants from the Caribbean – among them, the now deceased historians Manuel Moreno Fraginals and Francisco Pérez Guzmán, the first Cubans to join ADHILAC activities – gathered in the Venezuelan capital. The presentations of this congress, held in the Weapons Room of the Military Circle of Caracas, were later edited by the Venezuelan organizers headed by Germán Carrera Damas and Eduardo Arcila Farías.

Papers from the XIV Conference of the Association of Caribbean Historians, Barbados, 1982.

The origin of the Association of Caribbean Historians (ACH) is rooted in discussions on collaboration across the region initiated by Jacques Adelaide-Merlande of Guadeloupe with colleagues in the University of the West Indies (UWI). In April 1969, Jacques invited UWI historians to participate in a colloquium on “From Slavery to Emancipation.” Out of the subsequent discussion, first, between Jacques and Woodville Marshall, Carl Campbell and Neville Hall and, later, inside the UWI department of history, the UWI historians organized the second conference at UWI, Cave Hill, Barbados in April 1970.

The Association of Caribbean Historians (ACH) is an independent, non-profit, professional organization devoted to the promotion of Caribbean history from a multidisciplinary, pan-Caribbean perspective, and is the primary association for scholarly and public historians working in the field. Initially formed from a 1969 colloquium under the leadership of Francophone scholar Jacques Adélaïde-Merlande. In 1973, the ACH was formed. Since then, the organization has grown to several hundred members around the globe.

Does Europe Still Stop at the Pyrenees? or Does Latin America Begin There?: Iberia, Latin America, and the Second Enlargement of the European Community

Wiarda, Howard J., Does Europe Still Stop at the Pyrenees? or Does Latin America Begin There?: Iberia, Latin America, and the Second Enlargement of the European Community, Occasional Papers Series No. 2, The Center for Hemispheric Studies: American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, 1981.

Reviewed by Dr. Cecile-Marie Sastre, Historian and Archaeologist:

Spain and Portugal, which together comprise the Iberian Peninsula, form part of the European continent and contain one of the richest pre-historic, Celtic, Roman, Visigothic, Moorish, Medieval and Renaissance traditions of the whole of Europe. To suggest that Latin America begins in Iberia is to deny the peninsula its rightful place in European History. Such a suggestion is akin to saying that the United States of America, which includes African-American and Native American citizens, as well as people from all over the world, is a pure extension of England. The ancient and Medieval traditions of Iberia have no connection to the Americas and it is this formative period that defines the peninsula within the context of European history. There is no denying that Spain and Portugal gave Latin America its language, religion and culture. But in America, Iberian traditions were adapted to fit the world view of the native populations. In addition the colonizers that settled there adopted natives traditions, thereby transforming to some degree their own Iberian culture. Naturally, native products such as tomatoes, tobacco, corn and potatoes changed forever the cuisine of Iberia, but so did these crops change the eating habits of Great Britain, Ireland, the United States and other parts of the world. The potato is native to the Andes Mountains of South America. Shall we then say that Ireland, which adopted the tuber wholeheartedly, was an extension of Latin America? Equating Iberia with its Latin American ex-colonies can only be done by someone who is ignorant of Spanish and Portuguese history and who has succumbed to the North American penchant for viewing Iberia through a Latin American lens. A lens crafted from Anglo-American stereotypes of what they perceive exists south of the border.
