Colombian soap operas (Telenovelas)

I love to watch Colombian soap operas. They rarely fail to breath reality. Series, such as La Madre, contain good story lines and real life situations. The endings are not always about resolution, but mostly a lesson. La Madre is a good example of that. The ending did bring a resolution. However, it was mostly about a lesson. Here is a link to the series from Youtube if you want to watch it http://www.youtube.com/user/maggiebee0208

The word Uniqueness

"Uniqueness is of course a dangerously over-used concept in historiography; firsly by definition, any country's experience is unique, and, secondly, every country specialist is tempted to perceive the subject of his or her expertise to be interpretable in its own right and on its own terms" (Kapcia, 2008, p.7).
