Latin American Migration Project

Migration in the Americas:

Mexico and Latin America in Comparative Context

I am pleased to say that our papers will appear in a special forthcoming volume of the ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.  For your review, I have pasted the table of contents for the volume below.  In addition, with Jorge Durand's help and some extra funds from our budget, I expect the volume will be published in Spanish by Porrua press.  I will let you know when this is finalized.  The translations of your papers are not yet complete, but should be completed by early February.  After that, I expect to send you another email with the details regarding the book in Spanish.

Thanks so much for your participation in these publications, and for your very quick turnaround on the manuscripts.  I hope you enjoy the volumes our work represents and let me know if you have any questions.

Saludos,

Katharine M. Donato
