| Sumario: | This research note introduces some of the ideas discussed in the book The World that Latin America Created (Harvard University Press, 2022) regarding the role of international organizations in Latin America’s intellectual and political domains. The United Nations, an international organization frequently associated with the interests of the United States and the global North, in Latin America, became the center of a self-defined regional social scientific endeavor with worldwide impact. The note and the book focus on the intellectual movement anchored in the Economic Commission for Latin America (CEPAL) and on the political impact of cepalinos and dependentistas, one of their outmost critics.
