Description
Summary:This paper examines the mechanisms of circulation of Spanish American intellectuals in Colombiaduring the second half of the nineteenth century. This period witnessed a modernization of press and the book market in the region, which broadened the scope of action of intellectuals. These processes generated connections between the thinkers and a truly continental debate developed, especially on liberalism. In particular, Colombian liberalism engaged in a heated debate with Chilean liberalism. As a result of these exchanges, a Spanish American intellectual community was consolidated.
