Juan Bosch is a leading figure in literature and critical thought in his country, the Dominican Republic, and in Latin American countries in general. He belongs to a generation of Latin Americans who marked an epistemological, ethical, and political break with the domination and domestication of thought in our region. His intellectual, ethical, and political legacy is rooted in a recognized need to foster analysis and critical thinking, especially among new generations, as an essential task for guiding political practice, social and popular movements, and academia in the pursuit of the common good and social justice. For this reason, CLACSO, through the Working Group "Crisis, Responses, and Alternatives in the Greater Caribbean," together with the Juan Bosch Foundation, created the Juan Bosch Prize for Critical Thought in the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean. The eight chapters that make up this book are the essays whose proposals won or received an honorable mention in the competition, and each, from its unique perspective, forms part of a tribute to the master.
