Abstract:

Latin American universities do poorly in global university rankings. That is, they preform below the level to be expected of the size, GDP, and level of investment in higher education of its most advanced countries. University leaders in the region react to this yearly display of the lack of international stature of their universities by blaming the instrument. They claim rankings are biased towards the "Anglo-Saxon model of the university" and that they are unfit to recognize Latin America's universities "social mission". In this article, I challenge the notion that the message conveyed by po

Abstract:

We make the case that conditions and timing are right and, despite some challenges, there are many benefits to conducting management research in Latin America. Some of these conditions include an upward trend in the productivity of Latin American researchers, increased collaboration between researchers in Latin America and those in other regions, and societal, cultural, and economic characteristics that make the region an ideal “natural laboratory” to build and test management theories. Demonstrating that our arguments are not just about potential but are founded in reality, we offer a selecti

Abstract:

On the centenary of the birth of the Latin Americanist intellectual Darcy Ribeiro, it is more necessary than ever to reflect on the idea of the Necessary University that he developed. At the crossroads of humanity, Darcy's idea leads us along the right path to achieve the required structural transformations in a Latin America that continues with many pending tasks since independence. It is proposed that the perspectives on unity, anti-imperialism and confrontation with which the idea of Latin America was founded by Bilbao, in 1856, should guide the prospective project of our America.

Abstract:

The mortality-to-incidence ratio (MIR) is associated with the clinical outcome of cancer treatment. For several cancers, countries with relatively good health care systems have favorable MIRs. However, the association between lung cancer MIR and health care expenditures or rankings has not been evaluated. We used linear regression to analyze the correlation between lung cancer MIRs and the total expenditures on health/gross domestic product (e/GDP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) rankings. We included 57 countries, for which data of adequate quality were available, and we found high ra

Abstract:

Access to higher education has increased substantially in Latin America, but inequalities in access to and completion of higher education still remain. In this regard, identifying vulnerable groups and exclusion factors is a priority in Latin America’s university systems. The aim of this article is to understand in depth governing board perceptions of exclusion factors in higher education institutions in Latin America. The study has identified five key factors that help better understand exclusion from higher education in Latin America: (a) personal characteristics, (b) family situation, (c) i

Alice Lentz offers a brief view of the role of the Americas Fund for Independent Universities (AFIU) in relation to significant initiatives in various Latin American countries. In a region where the function and development of private higher education institutions is especially important, the focus of the AFIU's activities is on private universities' ability to provide trained business leaders with the skills necessary to meet the challenges of enterprise growth in these developing economies.

Introduction: University social responsibility is present in the discourses of academics, but it fails to permeate the actions that lead to the transformation of the university, requiring a paradigm shift. At present there are conceptual confusions that make its promotion and transformative practice very difficult, in many universities it is confused with social projection, which reduces its transversal dimension.
