Produced within this diversity are the boundaries—both physical and abstract—between nations, languages, ethnic and racial identities, ecologies, and geographies. Figurative and literal borders are confronted each day as people move across regions, navigate between cultures, and communicate with others around the world; global capital crosses national borders, redefines local economies, and produces labor migrations; geographical landscapes shift as land becomes deforested or designated as protected. These various “border encounters” highlight the ways in which borders can both restrain and liberate the objects, people, or ideas that face them, a distinction that is often bound up with power and politics.</p>
<p style="margin:12px 0px;border:0px;font-size:14px;outline:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;line-height:22px;color:rgb(51,51,51)">With this broad theme in mind, LAGO invites graduate scholars across disciplines to submit abstracts exploring the notion of borders—their strictures, leniencies, and significance—in Latin America and the Caribbean for LAGO’s 2014 graduate student conference. LAGO encourages participants to interpret this theme as they see fit. We invite submissions in the English and other languages of Latin America and the Caribbean regions.</p>

Esta rica diversidad está imbuida de las barreras—tanto físicas como abstractas—entre naciones, idiomas, identidades étnicas y raciales, ecologías y geografías. La gente se enfrenta con estas fronteras metafóricas y literales todos los días al cruzar regiones, navegar entre culturas, y comunicarse con otras personas por todo el planeta; el capital global cruza fronteras nacionales, redefine economías locales, y produce migraciones laborales; los paisajes geográficos cambian con la deforestación o la designación de protección oficial.

Des barrières physiques et abstraites habitent cette diversité, mettant en opposition des nations, langues, identités ethniques et raciales, écologies et géographies. Au quotidien, les peuples se voient confrontés à ces frontières figurées et réelles, lesquelles se manifestent à la traversée des frontières géographiques, ainsi qu’aux moments de navigation et communication interculturelles dans le monde entier. L’arrivée du capital international transforme les économies locales et devient la cause de la migration de sa main-d’oeuvre; les paysages subissent des changements et se déplacent à la suite des actions de déforestation ou de protection gouvernementale.Toutes ces diverses “rencontres frontalières” nous servent d’exemple des moyens par lesquels les frontières peuvent restreindre et libérer les objets, les personnes et les idées qu’elles délimitent; ce dynamisme est souvent lié aux notions de pouvoir et de politique.</p>
<p style="margin:12px 0px;border:0px;font-size:14px;outline:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;line-height:22px;color:rgb(51,51,51)">C’est la complexité de cette dynamique qui constitue la trame de LAGO (Organisation des étudiants post-universitaires des études latinoaméricaines de Tulane University), et nous pousse à inviter les diplômés de toutes les disciplines à déposer les résumés de leur recherche explorant la notion des frontières (leurs restrictions, leurs indulgences, et leurs significations) dans l’Amérique latine et les Caraïbes pour notre conférence de 2014.
