Welcome to the LAP Virtual Exhibit
Latin American Perspectives publishes 6 issues per year featuring critical research and analysis of the social forces shaping contemporary Latin America. Most issues are thematic, focusing on a specific topic or country.
For 49 years, LAP has pursued its mission to foster progressive debate on current theoretical and political issues, to encourage the work of emerging scholars, and to make the work of Latin American scholars available to English speaking readers.
