Welcome to the UNC Press Virtual Exhibit for the Latin American Studies Association.

Since we can’t be together at the conference, we’re bringing our book exhibit to you.
From virtually anywhere, you can browse our list of new and recent titles, chat with our editor Elaine Maisner, learn about our new books in our Envisioning Cuba and Latin America in Translation Series, and more.
