Book Description:

Maybury-Lewis saw Latin American frontiers as unknown physical spaces and unexplored academic "territory." The authors examine narratives that stirred or rationalized expansion, and emphasize their impact on native residents. The essays suggest a view of nationalism as theoretical concept and of frontier expansion as historical phenomenon.
