Journal of Latin American Cultural Studies publishes articles on Latin American culture and on theoretical and historical approaches to cultural production in Latin America, including Caribbean, Latino/a and other diasporic, trans-regional formations. Multidisciplinary work defining and proposing new areas of research and debate is especially welcome. We encourage contributions on the full range of cultural objects, practices, and expressions (including literature, film, visual arts, music), as well as the informal structures of meaning and communication at societal and sub-cultural levels. We welcome work that engages disciplines such as film and media studies, literary criticism, anthropology, gender and queer studies, communication, history and memory studies, and other areas of analysis.We are interested in work which investigates multiple modernities and the effects on societies and social practice of modernization and globalization, as well as articles that reflect on the plural meanings of culture and cultural field, and the place of cultural theory. Engagements with instances of hybridity and transculturation, including the limitations of their conceptual reach, are also welcome; as are articles proposing original directions for their analysis through alternative ethnographies and epistemologies. Work that explores new methods and new areas of investigation, including the critical renewal of cultural studies itself as a transversal disciplinary and political project, is particularly encouraged. We invite articles on all relevant periods, from colonial times to the present. There is a review section which carries authoritative review articles on the state of the art in given fields. Other formats such as position papers, interviews, visual artistic production, chronicles and debates may also be considered for publication.
