Research Papers

The LAII's Research Paper Series, Occasional Papers Series, and Mercosur Working Paper Series provide refereed forums for the timely dissemination of research on Latin American topics. Authors also gain the benefits of comment and criticism from the larger research community if they intend to later submit their work to other publications.

All research and occasional papers are available from the Latin American and Iberian Institute; MSC02 1690; 1 University of New Mexico; Albuquerque, NM 87131-0001; 505 277-2961, fax 505 277-5989. Call for prices. To comply with the ADA and Rehabilitation Act of 1973, these publications are also available in alternative formats.
