    Why are Anarchism and Trotskyism so popular in Latin America? Isn't Latin America more kin and ancestor focused than the US of America?

    Or am I using a social science definition of Individualism when you mean something different?

      Trotskyism in latin america isn't really the same thing as it is in the US and the broader anglo world. It developed from the fact that trotsky himself lived in Mexico City, whereas in the anglo world it was just an anti Stalin position but from the left.

        S. Anerica was also colonized and has a coastline and historically anarchism spread through the ports mostly. Those two things together would be my best guess. That and the influence of the Magonists in the Mexican Revolution.
