This paper looks at the essay, "Nuestra America" by Jose Marti, and compares the political world described in that essay to the political world in Latin America today. The essay looks at the ways in which Marti's essay is still pertinent today. The paper finds that Marti's essay is still highly pertinent today, and several examples are used to illustrate this.
From the Paper:
"His "Nuestra America," like many of his essays, was a call to build unity in America (Chacon et al., 2003). Throughout the essay, he uses two major themes to promote this call (Chacon et al., 2003). One of the themes is his use of the idea of the "natural man," a man who has great respect for the land, and the people's inhabiting it, and also little regard for the people who disrespect the land (Chacon et al., 2003). This character of the natural man plays against the character of "artificial man," for whom Mati has a great dislike: it is suggested that the artificial man represents the government of America."
