Current Initiatives
Today, with Latin American leaders and social movements confronting the inequalities brought on by neoliberalism and rejecting the Washington Consensus, the growing movement for global justice has pushed NACLA's intentions to become a prominent role just as it did in the 1970s and 1980s. Utilizing the internet as a central role as an organizing tool and information portal, NACLA's new website intends to provide more and timelier coverage of Latin American and the Caribbean along with in-depth analysis of the magazine and its 40 years of archives, discussion forums, electronic newsletters, action alerts, links to social movements and organizations, and a media analysis project to examine mainstream coverage of the region.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or initiatives:
“You will belong to that minority which, according to current Washington doctrine, must be protected in its affluence lest its energy and initiative be impaired. Your position will be in contrast to that of the poor, to whom money, especially if it is from public sources, is held to be deeply damaging.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
