REPAL

The Center for Latin American Studies is proud to serve as the institutional home for REPAL from 2024-2026.

The REPAL Network

REPAL (Red para el Estudio de la Economía Política de América Latina) is an academic network comprising distinguished researchers affiliated with universities in Latin America, North America, and Europe, who are interested in promoting and giving greater visibility to new studies in the political economy of Latin America. REPAL’s focus centers on advancing knowledge of development models, socio-political institutions, and practical challenges through empirically grounded research sensitive to context. Scholars associated with REPAL employ diverse methods to yield innovative descriptions, concept formation, causal inferences, and theoretical advancements challenging conventional wisdom. Institutionally, REPAL is a network open to the research community and structured around the promotion of diverse, plural debate on the political economy of Latin America. 

You can find out more on the REPAL website.

The REPAL Conference

Every year REPAL sponsors a conference, held at a university in Latin America or the United States, that gathers REPAL researchers to present and comment on each other’s work.  The two-day conference is preceded by one-day a Graduate Student Workshop. The conference and the exciting exchange it fosters inspire and empower scholars whose work focuses on the political economy of the Latin American region to continue pursuing innovative research. 

REPAL 2025 will be held at FGV – Fundação Getúlio Vargas in São Paulo Brazil.  The Graduate Student Workshop will take place on Wednesday, June 25 and the conference will take place on Thursday and Friday June 26 and June 27.  The REPAL 2025 Program Co-Chairs are Sandra Botero (U. del Rosario, Colombia) and Eduardo Moncada (Barnard / Columbia).

CLAS at Georgetown hosted the REPAL 2024 conference in July 2024.  You can download the program from that conference here:  REPAL 2024 Program
