New Latin American publishing project and magazine to be launched al LASA,
Montreal, September 6-8



OCEAN SUR is a new, independent, Spanish-language publishing project based
in Latin America.



After developing a strong editorial list of books on and from Latin America
over its nearly 20 year history, early in 2006 Ocean Press decided to
establish a separate Spanish-language publishing project: Ocean Sur. We now
have almost 100 titles in print.



This exciting new publishing project offers readers revolutionary voices
from the past, present and future of Latin America: from Bolívar and Martí,
to Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Roque Dalton, Haydée Santamaría, Hugo Chávez
and many others, reflecting the rebirth of Our America.



Titles will cover past and current debates among the left and social
movements, indigenous and women’s struggles, revolutionary theory,
reflecting the views of the leading intellectuals, artists, writers, poets
and activists from Latin America.



Ocean Sur has offices in Mexico, Cuba, El Salvador and Venezuela and our
books are distributed in Argentina, Central America, Chile, Colombia, Cuba,
Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela, as well as
Canada, the United States, Britain and Europe.



CONTEXTO LATINOAMERICANO is a new quarterly magazine of political analysis
published by Ocean Sur. Written from Latin America by Latin Americans, it
aims to facilitate and promote the exchange of ideas among activists and
political and social movements throughout the continent. It offers timely
forum for debate on current political and cultural issues in Latin America.



Contexto Latinoamericano is edited by Roberto Regalado, a leading Cuban
political analyst and author of Latin America at the crossroads/ América
Latina entre siglos. The editorial advisory board of the magazine includes
representatives of a broad range of political currents and individuals of
the Latin American left.



Contexto Latinoamericano is a crucial, up-to-date resource for US academics,
students, and activists interested in contemporary Latin America.



OCEAN SUR titles and CONTEXTO LATINOAMERICANO will be on display and for
sale at LASA in Montreal, Sept 6-8.
