Sumario:This paper intends to problematize and analyze, in a metahistorical way, the treatment that tourist studies have had as an object of study emphasizing some Latin American particularities in the post-war scenario. Far from being exhaustive and exclusive, it takes as its starting point a vacancy area of literature with a reflexive imprint, in which general historiographic debates and, a posteriori, more specific field discussions are combined. In this sense, it is proposed to break up a type of history, loaded with continuity and coherence, to give rise, bias, deficits and power relations. Specifically, from a review of the literature, it was identified that within the historical tourist studies a tendency to be rationalist, gradualist and consensual prevails, marked by a narrative with westernized and English-speaking hegemony, resorting to baggy and narrow historiographic sources. But far from closing and pretending to make a totalizing proposal, the work points to the need to deepen disciplinary reflexivity exercises in relation to the construction, reconstruction and deconstruction of historical narratives. It is an invitation rather than a closure and, in particular, to reflect not only cognitively, but also, and simultaneously, in a political key.
