NACLA Update

 

Dear Naclistas,

 

Even after the release of our final print edition Mapping the Moment, NACLA is dedicated to providing you with new pieces and analysis on Latin America. Today we have an article on the U.S. "Partnership for Growth" in El Salvador,  a 2011 program that reflects a general U.S. strategy to "institutionalize neoliberal policies" in Latin America, creating economic environments favorable to U.S. interests. 

 

Pus check out a new photo essay chronicling the efforts of a women's rights organization in Ecuador, an article commemorating prolific writer Roger Burbach and more! 

 

Hope you enjoy and continue to look for new content on nacla.org!
