Sobre este producto

Colombia’s diverse culture has been shaped by a variety of indigenous peoples and settlements. Throughout the country, settlements are divided into separate clusters, partly because of the geography of the Andes Mountains. The mountains bisect the nation and create a wall between east and west, resulting in settlements in high mountains, remote valleys, jungles, and coastal lowlands. This settlement pattern led social and ethnic groups to develop separately. Besides being isolated geographically, the Colombian people have been deeply affected by Spanish colonization, which created enduring social division. Under the encomienda system, Spanish settlers received land grants while the native peoples were forced to provide labor. The Spanish brought Catholicism, which has had continuing repercussions for Colombia. Although the various populations mixed over time to create the dynamic culture that is now Colombia, it remains a highly stratified society. Colombia’s evolution as a nation has been marked by turmoil and civil war as political factions struggled for power. Alongside the instability caused by ideological warfare, drug trafficking severely elevated the level of violence. Colombia’s illegal drug trade, organized by large cartels, became powerful in the 1970s and 1980s, and assassinations of government officials who opposed them became common. Although the largest cartels have disintegrated, many smaller cartels still wield power, often allying themselves with various rebel factions. Political insurgencies have been reduced somewhat through government intervention, which has had a stabilizing effect on the economy. This book, produced by Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center (DLIFLC), provides comprehensive information about Colombia and the Spanish Colombian Culture. Chapter topics include religion, traditions, family life and differences in the lifestyles of urban and rural populations as well as detailed discussion of geography, history and their economy, form of government, society and security and much more. 92 pages; dozens of photos, illustrations and charts, many in full color. This is a Print Replica that maintains the formatting and layout of the original edition and offers many of the advantages of standard Kindle books.
