Latin American Studies Association: LASA95 Papers Pilot
Project
This page contains the full text of papers presented at selected
thematic sections during
the XIX Latin American Studies Association (LASA) Congress held in
Washington DC in September,
1995. The pilot project emerged from LASA's Task Force on Scholarly Resources,
and has received the endorsement of LASA's Executive Council. This project
was expanded and carried out directly by the LASA Secretariat for papers
from the LASA97
Congress held in Guadalajara, and the LASA98
Congress held in Chicago.
Most of the papers have been
converted to HTML format and can be read directly with most WWW browsers.
Keep in mind that accents and some other special characters will not

Other papers are posted here in PDF format and can be read with Acrobat Reader software.
