In July, Duke History Professors John French, Jocelyn Olcott and Pete Sigal took over editorial leadership of The Hispanic American Historical Review (HAHR). The journal is published quarterly by Duke University Press in cooperation with the Conference on Latin American History and the American Historical Association.
Founded in 1918, HAHR pioneered the study of Latin American history and culture in the United States. Today, it maintains a distinguished tradition of publishing vital work across thematic, chronological, regional and methodological specializations. It is generally recognized as the pre-eminent English-language journal in the field of Latin American history.
HAHR publishes peer-reviewed articles featuring original, innovative research and pathbreaking analysis. Each issue also contains a comprehensive book review section, which provides commentary on every facet of scholarship on Latin American history and culture. The journal periodically publishes special features, such as forums and commentary, archival notes and special issues.
