The main argument is that the originality of the foundational project of the sociology in Central America was its regional perspective, which first became weak and later almost completely disappeared. The challenge now is about how to strengthen the discipline from this perspective but grounded in the present.

El reto actual consiste en reinventar dicho proyecto desde el presente.
