ABSTRACT
Let me state first that I come from another psychological dimension—one among the many collective states of mind that share, with considerable difficulty, the world we live in. In spite of the various degrees of socioeconomic plight, all of Latin America can be considered part of the so-called Third World. By the same token, the dominant language, the historical and political development, and the basic cultural characteristics that prevail in this region are sufficiently similar so that its peoples share come basic problems in development.
