>As a brazilian, I personally have the impression that the teachings in humanities in the USA is very biased towards neo-liberalism, pro-market and right-wing ideologies when I compare what's produced in brazilian and north american universities.
A puzzling statement. Except if you were to include business and economics among the humanities which Americans do not.
>This is probably because in the USA the universities are private, there's no free, autonomous and statal universities.
All American universities worth considering are either non-profits or state funded, so I do not understand where this idea comes from.
>But if I could choose a place to study humanities, specially economy or social science, I wouldn't choose a north-american university.
American sociologists are notably to the left of the American public.
