To recognize National Hispanic Heritage Month, Reese Library has chosen Hispanic American Historical Review (HAHR) as its journal of the month. The Hispanic American Historical Review has been published since 1918. It is published quarterly by Duke University Press in cooperation with the Conference on Latin American History and the American Historical Association and is generally recognized as the most widely respected journal in the field of Latin American history.
HAHR publishes peer-reviewed articles featuring innovative research and original analysis. The latest issue, August 2013, contains an article by Thomas Castilho Celso about the Brazilian abolitionist movement in the 1880s. Also presented is a study conducted by Edward Telles and Rene Flores about how color, nationality, social status, and age affect white identification in various Latin American countries. The renowned book review section which provides commentary on every facet of scholarship on Latin American history and culture is included, as well.
Hispanic American Historical Review is currently available online through Reese Library. For more information about this journal or any other in our collection, contact Melissa Johnson, Electronic Resources and Serials Librarian, at mjohns69@gru.edu or 706-667-4907.
