Roseberry-Nash Student Paper Award

AWARD WINNERS

In December 2005 the Society for Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology created the Roseberry-Nash Student Paper Award to honor William Roseberry and June Nash, two of the most outstanding anthropologists in the field of Latin American and Caribbean studies, and to recognize the excellence of students coming into the field who are creatively applying anthropological theory to their research. The award consists of 500 USD, which is awarded to the winner during the Annual Meeting of the American Anthropological Association, as well as consideration for publishing their paper in the Journal for Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology.
