NACLA Update

 

Dear Naclistas,

As we announced earlier this week, NACLA has decided to stop printing the NACLA Report on the Americas after publication of our Winter issue. With changing reader habits and prohibitively expensive printing costs, we feel that we can better achieve our mission to create information for change by moving all our content online. To read the full announcement, click here.

Our final print issue, "Mapping the Moment," will come out in February and promises to be a great final edition, with coverage of transnational movements today, water management in the Andes, and more.

Ensure you get a copy of the final issue: pre-order it now!
