LALS 194D Hemispheric Dialogues: Bridging Latin American and Latina/o Studies

The rapid acceleration of North-South flows of people, resources, and ideas in the Americas has triggered a rethinking of both Latina/o studies and Latin American studies approaches. By bringing empirical materials and conceptual frameworks from Latin American studies to bear on Latina/o studies and vice versa, this advanced research seminar explores the interlocking social, cultural, economic, and political processes that connect Latin America and U.S. Latina/o communities.
