Abstract
AbstractAll attempt to study the ideas and their historical evolution in which nowadays we denominated the Caribbean, always demands an additional effort for the student: thinking and rethink the Caribbean, due to the diversity of criteria and country and points of view that exist on the region that integrate it. The problem is not made minor when the referring one to the context of the Hispanic Caribbean is reduced, then, in this case, also exists disparity of opinions. The present study sets out to explore the different existing interpretations in the historiography from the Caribbean concept and to determine as they are the elements and factors common in the same one. Main center of attention is the Great Hispanic Caribbean. Therefore, which will treat is in thinking and redefining the Caribbean.References
