Abstract
This essay traces the history of the reception of phenomenology—mainly Husserlian phenomenology—in the Spanish-speaking countries of Latin America. It begins by highlighting the distinction between the Husserlian phenomenology to which preference is given and the multiple post-Husserlian “phenomenologies”. Another distinction, fundamental in the essay, is that between a first stage in which phenomenology is established as the dominant current and a second stage of a better level in the study of Husserl’s thought due to the publication of his posthumous work. After reviewing the influence of Spain in the Latin American reception, the historical overview covers the work of the main authors in Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Cuba, Costa Rica and Guatemala, and ends by highlighting the significance of the Círculo Latinoamericano de Fenomenología (Latin American Phenomenology Circle), founded in 1999, for the development of phenomenology in the region.
