We now have access to the Latin American Weekly Report. It provides in-depth analysis of political, strategic, and economic developments throughout the region. Once in the database, go to “Access Publications” and select the Latin American Weekly Report. This can be useful to anyone who wants to keep abreast of developments in Latin America, and they do cover all of Latin America, not just the larger countries as if often the case.
We have a CUNY-wide trial to the Latin American Weekly Report until the end of May. Access is on-campus only.
The LatinNews Intelligence Service covers 33 Latin American and Caribbean countries and cover political, security, economic and strategic issues. Information goes back to 1967.
