• Resumen

  • The crisis of information which we are facing today is a problem that has been caused by computers, and at the same time, can only be sol ved by computers. We have already reached the point of no return. At the first look the brave new Data World promises a lot to the scientist searching for information about Latin American History but on the other hand, it is easy to get "lost in cyberspace". The following article serves as constructive introduction in order to provide the cognitive tools and digital instruments to find individual ways to explore the net and to use the information ressources of the Web more efficiently. Not as a substitute but as a complementary instrument to traditional methods of the historian, the internet offers new perspectives to deal with information about Latin American History within the world wide scientific community.
