Resumen:
Our understanding of the Earth during the Precambrian has changed dramatically during the last decades. Discussions concerning the onset of plate tectonics, the supercontinent cycle and crustal growth processes have also diversified, with deep implications for Precambrian geodynamics. For this reason, this volume presents an updated synthesis of the state of the art of the Precambrian geology of Southwest Gondwana, including the main controversies and discussions concerning the tectonic and geodynamic evolution of this region during the Precambrian. Major tectonometamorphic, magmatic and sedimentary processes and paleogeographic implications during the late Neoproterozoic are evaluated in detail, as this period represents a key step in the Earth?s evolution linked to the assembly of Gondwana.
