BeLatin has established a forum for scholars and advocates interested in the rule of law,
geopolitics and economic freedom, with a regional focus on Latin America and the US. These
are scholars and advocates who wish to present and discuss papers on political and economic
issues from an interdisciplinary perspective. The main goal of our first series of seminars is to
influence public policy in Latin America by developing rule of law and free market ideas with
an informed and influential audience.
BeLatin is a joint effort of UC Berkeley, Universidad Científica del Sur and some of the finest
universities in Latin America.
