This paper addresses the characterization of Cultural Studies developed by Latin Americans, questioning the US notion that there is one homogeneous field called 'Latin American Cultural Studies'. Authors and works are presented to mark heterogeneity, spread, tendencies, and influences of the active locally-produced intellectual studies and projects. It is argued that Latin American countries are characterised by radical heterogeneity in social, political, academic, and intellectual terms. Therefore, it would be more adequate to refer to "Cultural Studies of/from the Latin American perspective". Finally, the so-called "(inter)Cultural Studies" are characterizeds Catherine Walsh refers to it.
