New Center for Latin American Studies Web Page

I’m immensely proud to announce that the Latin American Studies Department at Georgetown University has launched a new web site. “The Center for Latin American Studies was one of the first of its kind in the United States. Its core faculty bring together diverse scholarly interests with a focus on Latin America, and adjunct faculty drawn from the Washington, D.C. area supplement their offerings. The center regularly welcomes visiting scholars from both the United States and Latin America and sponsors many projects and programs, including the Mexico Project, which focuses on bilateral issues such as governance and trade between Mexico and the United States…” Read more about the Department here.

Another Georgetown highlight (in collaboration with the Organization of American States) is the Political Database of the Americas, an extensive collection of constitutional comparisons, elections data, political parties, and more.  The site receives tens of thousands of visitors per month.  Check it out at: http://pdba.georgetown.edu/
