Pacific Coast Council on Latin American Studies History

The Pacific Coast Council on Latin American Studies is a non-profit organization that was founded in the 1950s to encourage research and discussion regarding Latin American studies among scholars and students. As of 2016, there are no new updates on the organization and its conferences. The Pacific Coast region was defined as British Columbia, Alberta, Baja California, Sonora, Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Hawaii, and Alaska. The organization was composed of a board of governors and executive board members. Membership in the organization was open to all individuals interested in Latin American Studies. The organization founded the Review of Latin American Studies journal, which is composed of a total of four volumes. Additionally, the Pacific Coast Council on Latin American Studies held annual conferences and published its proceedings, along with presenting a candidate with the Hubert Herring Memorial Award at their annual conferences.
