Colombia: A Conversation

Join us as we welcome historians A. Ricardo López-Pedreros and Lina Britto for the launch of their new edited volumes, Histories of Solitude (Vol 1) and Histories of Perplexity (Vol 2), which bring together over 40 scholars based in Colombia, the United States, England, and Canada to discuss how the history of Colombia illustrates central questions about democracy in the Americas. What could the histories of Colombia explain about Latin America and the world, if anything at all? What does it mean to work on Colombia in an increasingly globalized planet? Who is entitled to tell the histories of Colombia? Lina Britto is an associate professor of History at Northwestern University. She’s the author of Marijuana Boom: The Rise and Fall of Colombia's First Drug Paradise (University of California Press, 2020), and a contributor to the second report of Colombia's Historical Commission of the Armed Conflict and Its Victims, CHCV. A. Ricardo López-Pedreros is a Professor of History at Western Washington University. He is the author of Makers of Democracy: A Transnational History of the Middle Classes in Colombia (Durham: Duke University Press, 2019), which was translated to Spanish as La clase invisible: Género, clases medias y democracia en Bogotá (Universidad del Rosario/Crítica, 2022).
