The Latin American and Caribbean
Section (LACS) of the Southern
Historical Association welcomes
individual paper and panel proposals for
the 2014 SHA meeting in St. Pete Beach,
FL, November 2-5, 2016. LACS accepts
papers and panels on all aspects of
Latin American and Caribbean history,
including the fields of the borderlands
and the Atlantic World. Panels and
papers that highlight the connections
between people, cultures, and regions
are especially welcome.
Submissions should include a 250-word
abstract for each paper and brief
curriculum vitae for each presenter. We
encourage faculty as well as advanced
graduate students to submit panels and
papers. Graduate students are eligible
for the Ralph Lee Woodward Jr. Prize,
awarded each year for the best paper
presented by a graduate student in a
panel organized by LACS.
Please note that the program
committee may revise proposed panels.
