Since the beginning of the 21st century, the “inquiry narrative” has been increasingly successful with specialized and non-specialized audiences.

In this article we consider the Latin American tradition of the “inquiry narrative”, and its specificities, with the aim of highlighting its ideological scope, in order to propose a classification. We propose a categorization of inquiry narratives based on examples from world literature.
