About LATINO-C

LATINO-C is a discussion list sponsored by the Latino Caucus of the American Political Science Association. The list exists to facilitate communication among political scientists and other scholars who share an interest in issues of importance and interest to the Latino community. Messages to the list include, among other topics, discussions of issues in racial and ethnic politics, requests for citations and sources, book reviews and new book announcements, information about graduate programs, job announcements, notices of upcoming conferences and meetings, and reports from the Latino Caucus and/or APSA Committee on the Status of Latinas/os in the Profession.

Professional Standards

LATINO-C is an unmoderated list, intended primarily for faculty and graduate students in political science and related disciplines, but open to all others with an interest in the topic.  Given that, all participants implicitly agree to use this list primarily as a venue for for shcolarly interchange.  Other uses of the list (i.e., private communication, partisan commentary, political announcements, etc.) are allowed as a courtesy but members are asked not to abuse this right.  Mainly this list should serve as a forum for the exchange of knowledge in our field and profession.

The list works best when each contributor adheres to a tradition of courtesy, professionalism and scholarship.  Discussions can be intense, but postings should always be respectful.  For those interested in combative or polemical discourse, there are many other newsgroups available.  All subscribers are expected to accept and abide by these standards of scholarly exchange.
