  The world after Snowden

  Edward Snowden a lancé un débat démocratique sur la surveillance qui n’aurait probablement pas pris une telle ampleur sans ses révélations. Qui doivent être les acteurs de ce débat ? Comment respecter les libertés individuelles tout en garantissant la sécurité collective d’une nation ?

  Questioning Spaces of Citizenship in Latin America and the Caribbean

  Latin American History Graduate Student Conference

  Scholars often invoke citizenship as an analytic frame to understand the history of Latin America and the Caribbean.
