I INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM
LATIN AMERICA AND THE BALKANS: APPROACHES AND SIMILARITIES
The event took place on June 17 and 18, 2023 at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Novi Sad, Serbia.
The symposium brought together specialists, researchers, and professors from various countries with the aim of strengthening ties, particularly scientific and cultural ones, between the two regions. It sought to be a forum for the exchange of ideas and theoretical and practical approaches from diverse fields of knowledge, enabling the consolidation of Latin American Studies in Europe, and more specifically the Balkan Peninsula, while simultaneously fostering renewed interest in the Balkans within the broader Latin American context.
The Symposium featured the participation of three ambassadors (from Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico) and was attended by professors and students from Serbian universities, as well as media representatives covering the event. In addition to the roundtables, we have planned extracurricular and recreational activities to make your stay even more enjoyable.
The papers presented at the Symposium will be submitted to an external review for publication in a Book of Proceedings in Serbian, Spanish and Portuguese.
