“Over the years Latin American Perspectives has offered a continuous flow of free, independent and critical knowledge about Latin America. Such a sustained effort is all the more remarkable as it has managed to address the most burning issues through solid empirical work and pluralistic theoretical analyses without losing sight of the deep structural fault lines haunting the subcontinent since colonial times. Its continuation and flourishing is of great importance particularly in the current turbulent times.”
— Boaventura de Sousa Santos, University of Coimbra, University of Wisconsin-Madison
“For forty years I’ve been reading Latin American Perspectives and appreciating the timely articles and special issues that LAP consistently delivers. This is a journal that has changed with the times yet has remained dedicated to its first principles, serving the interests of social justice and offering clear and incisive analysis of the most important questions facing Latin America and the Caribbean.”
— Florence E. Babb, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
“Latin American Perspectives se ha convertido a lo largo de los años en una publicacíon indispensable para el conocimiento de los países de América Latina y del caribe, analizados de un modo integral, riguroso y critico. En este caso, la duración de la revista da claro testimonio de su importancia y de su vigencia.”
— Jose Nun, Ex Secretario de Cultura de Argentina
