نظرة عامة

In November 2005, at the AAA annual meeting in Washington D.C., both the Executive Board and the membership of the Society for Latin American Anthropology (SLAA), during separate meetings, approved the change of the society's name to Society for Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology (SLACA), and the change of the journal's name to Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology (JLACA). [...]when recently going on the journal pages on AnthroSource to check if all the current issues of the journal had been uploaded, I found out that in the first issue of the Latin American Anthropology Group Contributions (Volume 1, Number 1, 1976), one of the ancestors of JLAA, there were three articles on the \"Caribbean region:\" one by John Stewart on the \"Merikin\" Baptists of Trinidad; one by Michel Laguerre, entitled \"Belair, Port-auPrince: From Slave and Maroon Settlement to Contemporary Black Ghetto;\" and one by Evelyn Hutz and Edward Pierce on the perception of ethnicity among the Nengre of Surinam. Please contact JLAA's managing editor, Christi Navarro, at [e-mail], if you are interested in reviewing a book or film.
