The Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) announces the results of the call for essays “Alain Touraine in Latin America”, a proposal aimed at the presentation of essays by a single author on the challenges of communication, politics and rights in the digital age, organized jointly.

This initiative aims to publish a volume on the work and contributions of Alain Touraine to the field of social sciences and Western thought since the mid-twentieth century and, especially, on his great influence in this regard in Latin America.

We congratulate the authors who responded to this call and submitted their essay proposals.

Twenty-one applications were received, of which, after technical and formal review, twenty were in a position to be qualitatively evaluated by an Editorial Committee to consider the quality, relevance, timeliness and coherence of the proposals according to the call.

The following is a list of the 5 essay proposals selected to be published as an open access digital book edited by CLACSO.
