  • Child Martyrs and Militant Evangelization in New Spain - An Interview with Stephanie Schmidt
    Today we have a special interview episode in which Stephanie Schmidt (Associate Professor in the department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University at Buffalo) tells us about her new book Child Martyrs and Militant Evangelization in New Spain.The book examines a set of tragic stories which occurred in the years following the conquest of Mexico, involving the use of high-class indigenous children by missionaries to aid in the conversion of the colony. Through these stories we gain a fascinating glimpse into life in those early years. The tell us a lot, not just about how missionary work was done, but also how this new society was functioning as a whole, and how those missionaries themselves saw actions.Our Sponsors:* Check out the Warpath game for PC and mobile: https://bit.ly/4ixJCm3Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-latin-american-history-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  • The Manila Galleons - Part 1
    Although often forgotten, the Manila Galleon trade route between the Philippines and Mexico was hugely important to Latin America, Asia, and the rest of the world. For hundreds of years this trade across the Pacific helped drive globalisation and fund both Spain and China.In today's episode we outline how the trade worked and the deep cultural influences it had on all those involved.Our Sponsors:* Check out the Warpath game for PC and mobile: https://bit.ly/4ixJCm3Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-latin-american-history-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  • A Brief History of Post-Conquest Latin America - Part 8 The End of Cold War Politics
    The fall of the Soviet Union sent shock waves around the world, and moved the global geopolitical situation into new territory. Having been a cold war battle ground, Latin America experienced this change as abruptly as anywhere. Compounding things was the fact that this was coupled with a severe economic crisis, and so this episode we examine how these factors led to the end of most dictatorships, as well as the dampening of many left-wing insurgencies. The 1990s were a time of democracy and orthodox liberal economics. There were - and still are - lingering exceptions however, so we look at examples such as Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua, as well as the Zapatista uprising in Mexico.We begin however, by outlining the war between Argentina and Britain - an outlier in the wider trends of the region - but one which still holds a lot of importance to Argentines today.Our Sponsors:* Check out the Warpath game for PC and mobile: https://bit.ly/4ixJCm3Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-latin-american-history-podcast/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Acerca de The Latin American History Podcast

The Latin American History Podcast aims to tell the story of Spanish and Portuguese America from its very beginnings up until the present day. Latin America’s history is home to some of the most exciting and unbelievable stories of adventure and exploration, and this podcast will tell these stories in all their glory. It will examine colonial society, slavery, and what life was like for the region’s inhabitants during this period. We will look at what caused the wars of independence, how they were won, and what Latin America looked like afterwards. The region’s twentieth century history was marked by extremes – in political ideas, in levels of wealth, and in cultural expression. It was a time of guerrillas, dictators, death squads, powerful corporations, and turmoil. The cold war was played out in extreme here – although filtered through the legacy of colonialism and the region’s own unique heritage. All this and more make Latin American history a fascinating story, and one worth telling. Join me on this podcast as I set about doing so.
