Latin American Encounters (LAE)LAE is a journal of the association Latin American Researchers of Ontario (LARO). This Journal aims to promote critical dialogue on the issues that affect and shape the lives of Latin Americans in Canada.
LAE provides an interdisciplinary space for groups and individuals who are interested in the production and dissemination of knowledge that questions hierarchical relations at the local, national and global levels. The journal's main purpose is to explore the formation of Latin-American-Canadian identities/subjectivities and build the foundations for a systematic understanding of the social, economic, political and demographic context within which such identities form. LAE espouses bilingual (English/Spanish) written and visual work by authors who define themselves and/or their work as Latin American and who engage new, critical and provocative conceptual and ethnographic/empirical approaches.
