We invite papers from across the social sciences, arts, and the humanities
to examine the cultural, economic, and political reconfigurations produced
by local or global transformations in Latin America and the Caribbean.
“Crises and Opportunities in Latin America,” is an interdisciplinary
conference to reflect on unsettling conditions in Latin America produced by
historical, political, cultural or economic changes, the types of new
conceptualizations and claims these have produced, and the potential
transformations and opportunities they imply for the present and future.
The conference will have both invited and contributed papers. Researchers
from all disciplines are invited to share their research, views, and
experiences.
