This article deals with the constitution of a Latin American public expression, and with the possibilities of the concept to incorporate as a "unit of analysis" for a common regional history, where the knowledge-thought have a leading role. This highlights two dimensions: a conceptualization to treat it and an outline of the main historical landmarks. Thus, in the first part, some concepts are elaborated as: civil society, Latin American thought, public expression, unit of analysis; in the second, a historical account of the regional public expression is: people, groups, media, institutions that have been articulated above and beyond their territories of origin and their national belongings to understand and speak about the region; the third part tries to show some elaborations of "Nuestramerican" thinking about these landmarks, their thinkers and their proposals.

Keywords : Public expression; Regional history; Civil society; Intellectual networks.
