Dear colleagues and friends,

We are pleased to announce the release of the first issue of LACES – Latin

Latin America and the Caribbean. It is published by Routledge (Taylor and
Francis). Below, you will find the table of contents of LACES Vol.1 No.1.

For details about LACES, including the names of editors and members of the
