Abstract

The article reveals the peculiarity of non-Western ways of joining the process of modernisation. On an example of Latin America, the author raises the question of the external/forced character of the modernisation processes, causing deficient and unbalanced forms of their implementation. The researcher shows that the choice of strategies for joining Modernity depends on the specific historical and socio-political situation in the region. The significance of the traditional component is stated. Unlike the European development model, for which the Traditional/Historical Past was a countertrend to Modernity, in Latin America, it is presented as a necessary pillar for the latter.
