Why is it a good idea to look at the South when it concerns psychotherapy research?

In the summer of 1982, Raffaella Carrá's hit "Hay que venir al Sur [You Must Come the South]" was playing on the radio. I, at the age of six, was singing and dancing with enthusiasm because a beautiful blonde Italian woman was teaching the world that "to make love well, you must come to the South" - and all of Chile joined the chorus at the Viña del Mar Song Festival, where she had been one of the star guests. Many of the Chileans who chanted "Hay que venir al Sur” for years thought that this excellent location for romance could be, for example, Puerto Varas, Chiloé, Patagonia, Aisén, or Magallanes. Proud to be Chilean and born in Latin America, I was disappointed when I realized Carrá's South was not under the Tropic of Capricorn but somewhere at the tip of the Italian boot. This was the first of many daily lessons of "our place."
