The concept of resistance has been highly debated by scholars across disciplines. Does resistance need to be confrontational? Is resistance always a political act? Is resistance always done on purpose, or can individuals engage in resistance unintentionally? Since the first encounters between Europeans and Americans, rebellion has been a useful tool of the colonized. Tactics and meanings have changed across time and space. In some situations, rebellion has become part of the culture of a specific group (whether that group is united by nationality, ethnicity, race, gender, sex, class, age, etc.). Throughout this course, we will examine various types of rebellion and resistance, including the Tupac Amaru II rebellion in the Andes, Marxist revolution in Cuba, and the Zapatista movement in Mexico.
