MESSAGE FROM THE LASA PRESIDENT

We come together in San Juan to commemorate LASA’s past, to debate the cutting- edge issues that are shaping the field in the present, and to work collectively in building the future of Latin/o-a American Studies. LASA2006 marks our Association’s 40th anniversary and this Congress will carry on LASA’s finest traditions of promoting scholarly debate and collegial collaboration across the Americas. We also hope this XXVI International Congress in Puerto Rico will continue to point the way toward LASA’s future as a more thoroughly transnational association which will reflect the spirit of our new Mission Statement: “LASA fosters intellectual discussion, research, and teaching on Latin America, the Caribbean, and its peoples throughout the Americas, promotes the interests of its diverse membership, and encourages civic engagement through network building and public debate.” LASA2006 is an invitation to all of us to engage in scholarly and pedagogical interdisciplinary debates across all sorts of borders which would further that mission. The Congress theme, “Decentering Latin American Studies,” will advance the transnationalization of the field by exploring how the study of Latin America, the Caribbean and its peoples is practiced within the United States, in Latin America and the Caribbean, and in other regions of the world. The Congress program builds on the wide variety of approaches and epistemologies that emerge from multiple positionalities and diverse geopolitical locations in collectively re-imagining Latin American studies for the 21st century. LASA2006 plenaries, featured sessions and other special events will offer an inter-related set of conversations which will hopefully spark debate Sonia E. Alvarez among our members about issues broadly related to LASA’s new Mission Statement. Plenaries are invited sessions designed to speak directly to the Congress theme and together will provide an unprecedented overview of the diversity, breadth, and depth of the field across the globe. The thematic plenary sessions include: European Perspectives on the Field of Latin American Studies; Transnational Dialogues on Globalization and the Intersections of Latina/o- Chicana/o-Latin American(s) Studies; The Place of Puerto Rico/Puerto Ricans in Latin American Studies: Perspectives from the Diaspora; Repensando los Andes; Redefining the Caribbean; Estudios Latinoamericanos en América Latina y el Caribe; Recentering the Periphery: Non-Latin Latin Americanism; The Relationship of Brazilian Studies to Latin American Studies; and Recentrar los márgenes: El lugar de Puerto Rico en los estudios latinoamericanos y latinos. My debt of gratitude to the colleagues who graciously agreed to organize these stellar, intellectually provocative plenary sessions is immensurable. Featured sessions, generally also solicited by the president and program chairs, are those we wish to foreground in the Program due to their particular relevance to the Association’s Strategic Plan and programmatic priorities. We will have two special sessions commemorating LASA 40th anniversary, kindly organized by past LASA presidents Carmen Diana Deere, Susan Eckstein, and Lars Schoultz: one entitled, “Tumultuous Times: LASA in the 1960s,” and the other, “The Never-Ending Cold War: The United States, Cuba, and LASA’s Battle for Academic Freedom.” Two featured sessions inaugurate LASA’s new programmatic initiative “Other Americas/Otros Saberes”, to be formally launched by Vice President and President-elect Charles R. Hale during LASA2006: “Relaciones entre Indígenas y Afro-Descendientes en América Latina,” and “Processos Organizativos Transnacionales de Pueblos y Organizaciones Indígenas Migrantes: Retos y Avances.” Focusing on other issues of critical concern to LASA’s future are featured sessions on “Reframing the Immigration Debate: The Challenge of Public Intellectuals in the Americas,” “100 Years of Feminist Internationalism in Latin America,” and “Interdisciplinarities.” Four other featured sessions were organized by the LARR editors and will result in special sections of that journal: “Los desastres no son naturales”: Natural Disasters and their Historical Consequences; The Rise of the Latin American Left; Cultural and Literary Studies of the Caribbean: What Lies Ahead; and Latin American Studies Journals: Round Table Forum with the Editors. Again, we are grateful to those who put in so much of their valuable time and effort to offer us such extraordinary programming. We also greatly appreciate the contributions of many members and of the Open Society Institute, Inter-American Foundation, and MacArthur Foundation whose generous support made it possible for us to bring Latin America-based scholars to participate in many these as well as numerous sessions in the general Congress program, which is also exceptionally rich and varied this year. A dynamic pair of talented and imaginative Program Chairs, Frances Aparicio and Amalia Pallares, led a spectacular Committee in assembling a Program that is sure to make LASA2006 a memorable experience. I am extremely thankful to them and to all at the LASA Secretariat, especially Milagros Pereyra-Rojas, María Cecilia Dancisin, and Sandy Klinzing for their creative energies and tireless dedication. Last but hardly least, I urge you all to attend this year’s Kalman Silvert Award Lecture, to be proffered by Miguel León Portilla, and the Martin Diskin/Oxfam Memorial Lectureship, which this year will be offered by William LeoGrande. Other LASA awards, including the Bryce Wood Book Award, the Premio Iberoamericano, and Media Award will be announced at the LASA Award Ceremony on Friday evening, which will be followed by our Business meeting. To compensate the civic-minded, business will be followed immediately by pleasure: the Gran Baile, featuring none other than El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico. Indeed, we hope all of you will make time to enjoy the many pleasures and cultural and historical treasures San Juan holds in store throughout your days at the Congress. Buen provecho! Aproveitem! Enjoy! LASA2006 - ii MESSAGE FROM THE LASA2006 PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS

Welcome to the 2006 LASA Congress in San Juan, Puerto Rico! That this is the first LASA Congress to be held in the Caribbean or in Latin America since the Guadalajara Congress in 1996 is meaningful. The recent thinking among the LASA membership and its executive officers regarding the importance of decentering Latin American Studies from its historically U.S.-centric vision has led LASA to plan and organize more of its present and future Congresses in Latin America. The Caribbean and Puerto Rico in particular are ideal sites of transition into this new phase. If the Caribe Hilton, our meeting hotel, was originally built to develop and serve the increasing tourist industry on the island, in March 2006 LASA panelists will use this same location to challenge, question, and examine the very hegemonic models of nation, progress, modernity, development and globalization that informed the original construction plans that the Caribe Hilton represents.

It is indeed important and meaningful to meet in Latin America precisely because this world region has been experiencing significant changes in political leadership, trade, cultural productions and performances, new forms of democratization, transnationalism, nationalism and glo- balization. Other developing regions of the world are now looking at novel Latin American models of resis- tance and adaptation to the imposed global economies. Puerto Rico is a living example of these adaptations and contradictions. It will be prominently featured in the LASA 2006 Congress Program.

Among the most exciting events related to Puerto Rico will be panels on “Military Power and Civil Society: The Case of Vieques, Puerto Rico”; three panels on ”Más allá de la “soberanía”: escribir por nadie desde Puerto Rico (cruce de lo ensayístico y lo teórico)”; two panels on “The Racial Counterpoint of Cuban-ness and Puerto Frances Aparicio and Amalia Pallares Rican-ness: Diaspora Struggles and Performing Knowledges”; “Las relaciones internacionales de Puerto Rico, 1930 al presente”; “Examining the Puerto Rican Experience in Schools: From the Diaspora to the Island”; “De Pájaros y Alas: Turismo gay en Puerto Rico”; and two panels on “Lectura de Poesía Puertorriqueña.”

Other exciting and interesting events addressing the Congress theme of “Decentering Latin American Studies” include featured panels entitled “Relaciones entre Indígenas y Afro-descendientes en América Latina”; “Interdisciplinarities”; “Recentering the Periphery: Non-Latin American Latin Americanism”; “The Relationship of Brazilian Studies to Latin American Studies”; “Transnational Dialogues on Globalization and the Intersections of Latina/o-Chicana/o- Latin American (s) Studies”; and “Recentrar los márgenes: el lugar de Puerto Rico en los estudios latinoamericanos y latinos” among others. We are also looking forward to a keynote lecture by Carlos Monsiváis, a performance by Pedro Lemebel and a Gran Baile featuring the incomparable Gran Combo de Puerto Rico.

We want to thank the LASA membership for placing their confidence in us as Program Co-Chairs. During this two-year process, we have learned a lot of new things about the LASA structure, about making interdisciplinarity work, about the importance of finding a place for, and balancing established fields with more cutting-edge approaches. Despite important changes in the Program Tracks, we are pleased that our track chairs were able to create panels that accommodate longstanding research agendas as well as incorporate new ones. Our goal was to be as inclusive as possible given the limitations of our meeting space in a year characterized by a record number of applications.

Congress planning is by definition a team effort and our work would be impossible without the collaboration and support of our Congress co-organizers. As Program Co-Chairs we would like to thank the hard work and engagement of the Track Chairs, who were so generous with their time last spring. We would also like to express our thanks to the panel chairs who generously accepted last minute changes and to the Executive Committee who placed their confidence in our skills and vision. Most importantly, we want to express our deep appreciation to Milagros Pereyra-Rojas, María Cecilia Q. Dancisin , Sandy Klinzing, and Sonia E. Alvarez for making this work so surprisingly easy and pleasant.

LASA2006 - iii PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS AT EACH LASA CONGRESS

KALMAN SILVERT AWARD Miguel León Portilla Recipient of Silvert Award for 2006

Comenzaré diciendo que he dedicado muchos años, cerca de cincuenta, a la docencia y la investigación. Ello lo he realizado sobre todo en la UNAM. En menor proporción he laborado también en otras instituciones de México y del extranjero. Entre ellas han estado el antiguo México City College, varias universidades como la Iberoamericana y otras de provincia. En el extranjero he dado cursos en universidades de los Estados Unidos, Canadá, América Latina, España, Francia, Alemania, Inglaterra, Noruega, República Checa, India, Japón e Israel. Creo haber contribuido a la formación de miles de jóvenes mexicanos y extranjeros, mujeres y hombres, muchos de los cuales hoy son maestros e investigadores. Algunos han destacado notablemente en sus trabajos como Alfredo López Austin, Beatriz de la Fuente, Mercedes de la Garza, Xavier Noguez, Carmen Aguilera, Georges Baudot, Birgitta Leander, Jacqueline de Durand-Forest, Nahum Megged, Patrick Johansson, Pilar Máynez, Librado Silva Galeana, Francisco Morales, José Rubén Romero, Salvador Reyes Equigua, Víctor de la Cruz y otros más.

Mis cursos han versado principalmente sobre lengua y cultura nahuas e historia antigua de México. He coordinado durante casi cinco décadas el Seminario de Cultura Náhuatl que fundamos mi maestro, el doctor Angel María Garibay, y yo en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la UNAM. Y a propósito de maestros diré que Garibay me abrió el camino al rico caudal de documentos en náhuatl y a la lengua misma. Fue él un maestro excepcional al que debo mucho de mi formación. Me dirigió la tesis de doctorado y luego trabajé con él cerca de quince años. Otro maestro, también extraordinario, fue el doctor Manuel Gamio, iniciador de la moderna antropología en México. Con él colaboré varios años en el Instituto Indigenista Interamericano. De diversas formas fueron asimismo mis maestros el doctor Justino Fernández, que me inició en el conocimiento y apreciación del arte prehispánico, y don Eduardo Noguera, arqueólogo y máximo especialista en la cerámica mesoamericana. Tuve el privilegio de acompañarlo en sus viajes a muchas zonas arqueológicas de México y de él escuché sabias lecciones.

Tal vez mi primer logro fue haber preparado como tesis la que me atreví a titular Filosofía náhuatl estudiada en sus fuentes. Ese trabajo, presentado en el examen correspondiente en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la UNAM en 1956, revisado, lo publicó el Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas de la UNAM en 1959. Allí empecé a laborar desde 1957. Recuerdo que haber expresado que los nahuas habían desarrollado un pensamiento filosófico pareció a algunos una locura.

Creo, sin embargo, que preparé ese libro con mucho cuidado acudiendo a fuentes primarias— códices y textos en náhuatl de la tradición indígena, poemas y discursos, huehuehtlahtolli— haciendo análisis y valoración de los mismos. Este trabajo, a pesar de esas tempranas reacciones desfavorables, ha tenido significación perdurable. Citado en innumerables obras, ha sido reeditado y ampliado en diez ocasiones y traducido al inglés, ruso, alemán, francés y checo. Atendiendo hoy a su contenido puedo afirmar que continúo estando de acuerdo con la mayor parte de lo que en él presenté.

Los temas tratados en dicho libro son el planteamiento de problemas tales como la posibilidad de decir palabras verdaderas, el conocimiento acerca de una divinidad suprema, la persona humana, la posibilidad de un libre albedrío, el más allá, los fundamentos de la ética y el derecho. Posteriormente, en ulteriores ediciones, atendí a la evolución del pensamiento náhuatl e hice una valoración crítica acerca de la posibilidad de ahondar en su conocimiento.

El mismo año de 1959 preparé y publiqué otra obra cuyo tema fue presentar el punto de vista indígena acerca de la Conquista de México. Para ello obtuve del Dr. Garibay autorización de emplear algunos textos traducidos por él del náhuatl. Acudí también a otros textos que traduje yo y con esas fuentes organizé el libro que titulé Visión de los Vencidos, relaciones indígenas de la Conquista. El conocido grabador y dibujante Alberto Beltrán copió de varios códices ilustraciones que acompañaron al texto del libro. Este fue recibido con grande interés. Ha sido publicado en español por la UNAM en treinta ediciones y también, en castellano en España y Cuba. El libro ha sido objeto de traducciones a quince idiomas.

Mi actividad en el Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas de la UNAM cambió en 1963. Fue entonces cuando se me eligió director de dicho Instituto. Acepté el cargo con cierto temor pues, aunque el Instituto tenía ya varios años de fundado, carecía de una adecuada estructura

LASA2006 - iv académica. De sus miembros podía expresarse aquello que dice la Biblia: “No había jueces en Israel y cada quien hacía lo que quería”. Dicho en otras palabras, no se presentaban programas de trabajo ni evaluaciones y en muchos casos las ausencias eran casi constantes. Considero que fue un logro organizar al Instituto. Para lograrlo reuní con frecuencia al Colegio de Investigadores. En él acordamos distribuir a sus miembros en tres principales áreas de trabajo: historia prehispánica, colonial, moderna y contemporánea de México. Propuse la fundación de tres revistas que hasta hoy continúan publicándose: Estudios de Cultura Náhuatl con 36 volúmenes; Estudios de Historia Novohispana con 28 y Estudios de Historia Moderna y Contemporánea con 24. Estas revistas siguen siendo muy bien recibidas en el mundo académico de México y del extranjero. En Estudios de Cultura Náhuatl, que inicialmente dirigió el doctor Garibay y posteriormente quien esto escribe, han publicado distinguidos estudiosos acerca del pasado prehispánico de México. Una novedad fue que, a partir del volumen 18, se incluyeron contribuciones preparadas por personas de estirpe náhuatl de diversas regiones del país. Se inició así una tradición que en la actualidad tiene ya considerable fuerza y ha llevado a la aparición de la que llamamos “Nueva Palabra”. Esto ha tenido un eco entre grupos de otras lenguas mesoamericanas. En la actualidad el número de escritores en lenguas indígenas es ya bastante elevado. Complemento de este logro fue, años más tarde, la creación de la Casa de los Escritores en Lenguas Indígenas. En colaboración con algunos indígenas como Natalio Hernández y Juan Gregorio Regino, obtuve el apoyo de la Secretaría de Educación Pública y de la UNESCO para crear dicha casa. En ella se reúnen escritores de estirpe indígena, se imparten clases sobre varios idiomas vernáculos y se publican sus obras, principalmente de narrativa y poesía.

En el Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas promoví la creación de varias series de publicaciones. Las principales son: Fuentes para la historia y cultura nahuas; Facsímiles de filología y lingüística náhuatl; Cronistas e historiadores de Indias; Culturas mesoamericanas; Historia novohispana e Historia moderna y contemporánea de México. Existe otra serie que da entrada a trabajos referentes a la historia de otros países, particularmente de EspaZa y los Estados Unidos.

A mediados de la década de los sesentas emprendí otras investigaciones relacionadas esta vez con la historia de la Baja California. De tiempo atrás me sentí atraído por ella y decidí visitarla y allegar fuentes para su estudio. En un primer viaje a La Paz, acompañado de mi esposa, que es también historiadora, Ascensión Hernández Triviño, establecimos contacto con las autoridades del entonces Territorio de Baja California Sur. Inquiriendo acerca de la existencia de un archivo histórico, se nos respondió al fin que en la azotea de la cárcel había un gran conjunto de viejos papeles. Acudiendo a ese lugar, descubrimos que efectivamente allí estaba el antiguo Archivo del Territorio Sur que, al ser demolido el palacio de gobierno donde se encontraba, fue trasladado a ese cuarto de la cárcel. Examinando algunos de los documentos que allí se conservaban, me percaté de su importancia. Hablé entonces con quien era gobernador del Territorio, el licenciado Hugo Cervantes del Río, y le di a conocer el proyecto que concebí al respecto. Le ofrecí enviar dos personas especializadas de nuestro Instituto para que iniciaran todo lo concerniente a la limpieza de esa documentación, su clasificación e índices.

El proyecto se puso en marcha y puedo decir que hoy, casi treinta años después, ese archivo ha sido recuperado, alojado debidamente en la Casa de la Cultura en la ciudad de La Paz. Ese archivo histórico, que ha sido microfilmado, además de incluir testimonios de mucho interés para la historia del hoy estado sur, también abarca otros para el del norte y aun para Alta California.

Mi interés en torno a la California mexicana me llevó a preparar la edición de una obra hasta entonces inédita: La Historia natural y crónica de la antigua California, del jesuita Miguel del Barco que había laborado allí durante cerca de treinta años. Esa obra, con copiosa información lingüística y etnológica así como de carácter histórico, ha sido recibida con muy grande interés y reeditada también por el Instituto, además de ser traducida en inglés por una editorial de Los Ángeles, California.

Otra obra preparé y publiqué en el Instituto en relación con la California mexicana. Fue ella: Cartografía y Crónicas de la antigua California. Reuní en ella un gran conjunto de mapas, algunos del siglo XVI y otros de las centurias siguientes. El propósito fue mostrar, por una parte, la interrelación entre el contenido de las crónicas y el de la cartografía. Por otra, poner de manifiesto la significación de las exploraciones a lo largo de la península, tanto por tierra como por mar, para una delineación más precisa de la imago mundi. Dicho en otras palabras hacer ver que el conocimiento del perfil geográfico de la península de California complementa cabalmente la cartografía de América del Norte y, en general, del Nuevo Mundo.

Otro proyecto cristalizó entonces relacionado también con nuestra California: la creación de un Centro de Investigaciones Históricas UNAM- UABC (Universidad Autónoma de Baja California). Hablé con los rectores de la UNAM, y de la Universidad autónoma de Baja California. A ambos interesó la idea. El nuevo Centro comenzó a operar en Tijuana en 1975, teniendo como director a David Piñera Ramírez que se había formado en nuestro Instituto. Ese centro se consolidó y hoy está convertido en Instituto dentro de la UABC. Es una avanzada en la frontera norte que fomenta la conciencia histórica de los bajacalifornianos.

Concluido mi encargo de director del Instituto, aproveché un año sabático para dar dos cursos en universidades norteamericanas, la de Texas en Austin y la de Arizona en Tucson. Pude fomentar allí el estudio de la lengua, la literatura y la historia de los pueblos nahuas. Creo que la labor desarrollada en el Seminario de Cultura Náhuatl y por medio de las publicaciones que hacemos en la UNAM, así como las actividades académicas en esas universidades y en otras también de los Estados Unidos, en que impartí conferencias sobre temas afines, han contribuido a incrementar el interés por estas investigaciones en ese país. En la actualidad son bastante numerosos los estudiosos norteamericanos, así como los europeos y otros que se dedican a este campo de investigación. Añadiré que en el Seminario de Cultura Náhuatl, que ha funcionado continuamente, contando con el auxilio de un adjunto, el doctor Patrik Johansson, se ha propiciado la preparación de otros bastante numerosos investigadores extranjeros.

Al acercarse el V Centenario de lo que, a propuesta mía, comenzó a designarse como Encuentro de Dos Mundos, se creó en nuestro país una

LASA2006 - v Comisión Nacional Conmemorativa. Los secretarios de Relaciones Exteriores, y de Educación Pública, invitaron a coordinar dicha Comisión. Acepté este encargo y obtuve la colaboración de José María Muriá, director de El Colegio de Jalisco y antiguo discípulo mío, así como de Roberto Moreno de los Arcos director entonces del Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas de la UNAM. Más tarde colaboró también con nosotros el antropólogo Guillermo Bonfil Batalla. El propósito de esta Comisión fue lograr que se tomará en cuenta la presencia de los indígenas como participantes en ese encuentro con los europeos. El cambio de enfoque no fue fácil. Había quienes consideraron que con este nuevo enfoque se quería paliar o esconder lo que a su juicio fue un genocidio de las poblaciones indígenas. Otros, en cambio, sostenían que, al emplear la palabra encuentro en vez de descubrimiento, se estaba privando a España de su gloria histórica. En las varias reuniones de las comisiones de los países iberoamericanos propugnamos por este enfoque e insistimos en que, más que celebrar, debía conmemorarse lo ocurrido a partir de 1492 por la trascendencia que tuvo.

Algún tiempo después el mismo secretario de Relaciones Exteriores, en consulta con el de Educación Pública, propuso al presidente de la República, licenciado Miguel de la Madrid, se me designará embajador delegado de México ante la UNESCO. Allí obtuve la participación de la UNESCO en la conmemoración del V Centenario del Encuentro de dos Mundos. Sometido esto a la consideración del Consejo Ejecutivo y después a la Conferencia General de la UNESCO, se aprobó por unanimidad un programa de actividades. Comprendieron estas ciclos de conferencias y congresos, en los que participaron indígenas de viarios países, en varios lugares de Canadá, México, Perú y Guatemala. El propósito fue lograr que, aprovechando la coyuntura de ese V Centenario las demandas de los pueblos indígenas comenzaran a ser escuchadas. Creo que esos congresos prepararon el camino de lo que luego ha ocurrido.

En la UNESCO, como embajador-delegado de México obtuve también la declaración de varios bienes culturales nuestros que fueron incluidos en la Lista del Patrimonio de la Humanidad. Entre ellos estuvieron el Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de México, Teotihuacan, Puebla y Cholula. Habiendo concluido el encargo de representar a México en la UNESCO, a mediados de 1992, regresé a la UNAM donde hasta hoy continúo laborando.

Otros proyectos he dirigido. Mencionaré el de la traducción al castellano del manuscrito de Cantares Mexicanos que conserva la Biblioteca Nacional de México. Contando con la participación de diez investigadores, el proyecto está en vías de concluirse. Este manuscrito es una de las joyas principales de la literatura náhuatl de la antigua tradición. Poner su contenido al alcance de todos en versión paleográfica y traducción al castellano, debidamente presentada y anotada será ciertamente logro de considerable significación.

He trabajado asimismo en torno a la persona y la obra de fray Bernardino de Sahagún. A tres proyectos me referiré: la publicación de textos de los Códices matritenses, (UNAM, 1958), la edición y traducción del libro de los Coloquios (UNAM, 1986), en el que Sahagún transcribió una versión prototípica de los diálogos entre los franciscanos y los sabios indígenas, fechados por él hacia 1524; una biografía de fray Bernardino, pionero de la antropología (UNAM, 1999), que ha sido publicada también en inglés. Mi interés sahagunense me ha llevado a apoyar la creación de un museo y biblioteca, dedicados a Sahagún y sus aportaciones, en Tepepulco, en el actual estado de Hidalgo, donde él inició emprendió sus pesquisas en 1558.

Un último punto mencionaré, que es el de mi interés por los códices o antiguos libros de pinturas y signos glíficos elaborados en Mesoamérica. Es obvio que, a la par que los textos escritos ya con el alfabeto en náhuatl, maya y en otras lenguas indígenas, así como las crónicas del siglo XVI, tienen fundamental importancia los manuscritos picto-glíficos de los antiguos mesoamericanos. En torno a ellos preparé un libro El destino de la palabra. De la oralidad y los códices a la escritura alfabética (Fondo de Cultura Económica, 1996). En él me planteo la problemática que implica el transvase al alfabeto de aquello que había tenido como soporte la tradición oral y los libros de pinturas y signos glíficos. Tiempo después publiqué Códices, los antiguos libros del Nuevo Mundo (Aguilar, 2004), que ofrece una visión de conjunto acerca de su origen, diversos contenidos, características, así como el registro y valoración de las ediciones que se han hecho de algunos de ellos. En paralelo, propuse a la editorial Raíces, que saca a luz la prestigiada revista Arqueología Mexicana, emprendiéramos la publicación de algunos códices en números especiales de dicha revista.

Hasta la fecha han aparecido ya dos códices, la Matrícula de Tributos y el Fejérváry-Mayer, rebautizado como Tonalámatl de los Pochtecas. Publicados en muy fieles reproducciones a partir de fotografías obtenidas directamente de los originales, estos códices con sus comentarios y una presentación muy digna, se han ofrecido al público a precio sumamente bajo en tirajes de 40,000 ejemplares, lo que permite su muy amplia difusión. Por primera vez, diría que no sólo en México sino en el mundo, manuscritos de esta índole se vuelven asequibles para todos los que deseen estudiarlos.

En estas actividades, así como en otras relacionadas con El Colegio Nacional del que soy miembro, entre ellas la impartición de cursillos y conferencias en universidades de provincia, así como en mi encargo principal en la UNAM, donde soy investigador emérito, continúo mis quehaceres académicos. He tenido muchas satisfacciones en la vida. Se me han concedido 16 doctorados honoris causa por universidades de México, América del sur, Estados Unidos, Europa e Israel. También he recibido buen número de premios en México y fuera de él.

Pronto cumpliré ochenta años y espero seguir trabajando hasta que las fuerzas me lo permitan. Considero un privilegio muy grande haber podido servir a México en estas tareas, relacionadas principalmente con sus pueblos originarios que son los que más requieren nuestra atención ya que han estado por siglos olvidados y abatidos.

LASA gratefully acknowledges all who provided financial support for Latin American and Caribbean Congress participants. Our thanks to the John D. and Catherine T.

As always, we are indebted to the Ford Foundation for its support of the LASA Endowment, as well as to the many members and friends who continue to provide Endowment support. We join with the Gender and Feminist Studies Section in acknowledging the support provided by UNIFEM for its pre-conference. Lastly, we offer our thanks again to the AVINA Foundation for its generous grant for Kalman Silvert Award Life Memberships.

LASA2006 could not have taken place without the tireless efforts of LASA President Sonia E. Alvarez, and Program Co-Chairs Frances Aparicio and Amalia Pallares to assemble an outstanding program, including several featured and plenary sessions. Thank you for all your efforts on behalf of the Association!

Margarita Ostolaza of the Universidad de Puerto Rico, Río Piedras chaired the Local Arrangements Committee for LASA2006. The committee was instrumental in securing funding for the Welcoming Reception and provided expertise in dealing with many logistical concerns. Many thanks to Margarita and committee for helping to make LASA2006 a success.

An outstanding LASA Staff worked tirelessly to administer the Congress logistics and to create the final Program, among many other projects. Special thanks to our highly efficient staff members - María Cecilia Q. Dancisin, Congress Coordinator and Kate Foster, Membership Coordinator - who dedicated countless hours to answering questions, solving problems, and making program changes. Sandy Klinzing deserves our gratitude for coordinating all our fundraising efforts. Thanks also to Sandra Wiegand, Administrative Assistant, for her incalculable hours working with paper proposals and data entry. We are also very grateful to Natalie Mauro who worked diligently formatting and placing more than 1,000 papers on the Congress CD-ROM.
