Call Dossier Number 06 | Volume nº 03 | Number 02

The Latin American Journal of Criminology invites researchers and academics to submit articles on the theme "Justice, Memory and Peace in Latin America".

The call aims to gather studies that present a reflection on the different issues related to justice, memory and peace in the region. Articles should consider ethnic, racial, gender, class and region diversity as a relevant and important aspect in the discussion of justice, memory and peace in Latin America. The journal values approaches that are inclusive and take into account the perspectives of historically marginalized groups.

The Journal is concerned with institutional violence in the countries of the region, and therefore encourages articles to present critical analyses of institutional structures and their violent practices.
Those interested in submitting articles must follow the standards of the Latin American Journal of Criminology.

The call is open to researchers from different areas of knowledge
