OPINION – Alain Touraine in Latin America
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.
According to the evaluation carried out, the list of the 5 essay proposals selected to be published as an open access digital book edited by CLACSO is presented below.
