Latin American countries and their iconographies
Article Abstract:
Jean Gottman, the President of the World Society of Ekistics, believes that every regionalism has some iconography at its base and affirms that a strong belief on some religious creed or a pattern of political memories can establish ideas on the origin of political fragmentation. It is observed that the iconographies of Latin American countries clarify the value of these notions of Jean Gottman.
