| Sumario: | In this paper I attempt a few things. First, to understand the reasons behind Uruguay’s and Uruguayans’ lack of interest in both the colonial era and indigenous issues. Second, I seek to explore the theoretical and crtical potential of two constructs: coloniality of power and settler colonialism.

At the end of the paper I propose possible ways to further the changes that said paradigm brought to the field of colonial Latin American studies. |
