| Synopsis: |
This passionate proposal by Colombian essay writer William Ospina, represents a Latin American utopia that intends to eliminate the current geopolitical borders in order to make way for a privileged continental identity. The essay highlights the existence of cultural elements that would promote the redefinition of the Mestizo America's future. By creating a community of nations with a dynamic social exchange and adjusted to present world trends in which globalisation is already an unavoidable determining factor, such a future is plausible. The author states that the balance between stimulating economic prosperity and encouraging humanistic progress is imperative for the unification, since the best resources must always be channelled towards people in order to consolidate a nation's dignity. |
