This article proposes to develop a critical reflection based on Latin American Geography and the Social Sciences, about the relationship between regional dynamics and the categories Latin America and the Caribbean. The objective is to analyze the possible insufficiency of European universalism on the Latin American and Caribbean nomenclatures in the face of cultural and territorial specificities and counter-hegemonic social processes. The qualitative method will guide the methodology, based on the interpretation of classic and contemporary bibliographic materials to analyze other alternatives of regionalization displaced from the economic, colonial and imperialist essentialism of traditional cartography. We believe in other possible languages ??of different cartographies according to different regions of the continent, based on historical aspects, theoretical critiques, migratory flows, ethnic-racial populations, socio-spatial distribution of economic groups and political-ideological aspects.
