description The aim of this work is to sketch a history of the concepts that have been used to define all the societies and States of Latin America: Hispanoamérica, Iberoamérica, Latinoamérica, Latinoamérica y el Caribe, Nuestra América, Indoamérica, Abya Yala. Our hypothesis is that each of these terms intends to make visible (or to hide) something about this geographic, politic and social area. The term –or the need for a term for this area as a whole– arises from a double controversial relationship: towards Europe and towards Saxon America. Later on, it has been seeking a positive affirmation according to the characteristic subject of the continent or subcontinent. We are going to investigate the origin and use of some of these terms, suggesting why it is important to recover the discussion now, within a context of a neoconservative globalization that seems to dilute particular identities into the mold of an impersonal market democracy subject to the values of Eurocentric modernity. We hope that these reflections serve for the development of future research, emphasizing the renewed particularity of all the societies of our subcontinent.
