It's getting there, be patient. Another 43 pages of debate and we'll end up with a new thread....but still working on the answer.



Is Latin America Improving?

Threads on C-D have the pronounced tendency to turn into racial ranking arguments no matter how remote from the initial topic they might be.

To help us steer us back on topic and away from discussions about ethnicity and/or idealizations about the "Europeaness" of Argentina, here's an article about Peru and the governments commitment to fight corruption, improve infrastructure, to promote equality and discrimination; in essence to essentially modernize by 2021 :

Kuczynski promete convertir a Perú en un país moderno para 2021 | Internacional | EL PAÍS


What do you guys think? The article is a little scarce on specific policies. Are there any Peruvians here that are familiar with the countries political climate?

Also brasil got some of the darkest european groups arriving.. if you count raw numbers there are far more portuguese descent in brazil than anything else I believe, and portuguese are well known for being some of the darkest and more ethnic europeans (Not a bad thing, portuguese are good people overall).

I have been in LA a couple of times, and never thought I was in Denmark, Netherlands or GErmany. Maybe there are little town with german descendants but still overall they are too mixed with other ethnicities to look like ethnic germans as a whole. White latinos overall overlap with southern europeans, not with the whole europe!.
What’s are talking about?
