The
program in Latin American studies is administered by the Center for Latin
American Studies, a clearinghouse and center of coordination for research,
pedagogy, and extracurricular events pertaining to Latin America and its
worldwide diasporas. The mission of the Center for Latin American Studies is to
foster learning and research across disciplines and geographic boundaries, and
to bring the richness of the scholarship on Latin American environment,
economics, politics, culture, history, art, language, and literature to the
larger Rutgers community. Academic courses, together with visiting writers,
film series, concerts, conferences, and lectures, highlight topics in
migration, health, environmental issues, human rights and democracy, cultural
performance, literary innovation, and linguistic and political change in Latin
American and greater hemispheric contexts. The center moves beyond traditional
regionalisms toward a more thorough understanding of culture and society
throughout the Americas.
