CENTRO Journal
PUBLICATIONS & MEDIA
The Publications & Media Unit sheds light on the diverse and complex experiences of Puerto Ricans in both Diaspora and the archipelago. For decades, CENTRO has highlighted and uncovered imperative stories through our journals, publications, documentaries, and series that otherwise might have gone unnoticed. Simultaneously, our publications have promoted a greater understanding and appreciation of Puerto Rican culture and history. CENTRO also disseminates relevant information about the Puerto Rican experience and contributions to the political, economic, and social cultures of the United States. With a diverse group of editors, animators, graphic artists, documentary filmmakers, journalists, and content creators at our disposal, CENTRO’s team is invested in ensuring that our work reaches the diaspora and evolves with it.
The leading peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated entirely to the field of Puerto Rican Studies. The journal—published continuously since 1987—is dedicated to publishing the latest work from scholars in a wide range of academic traditions, in order to enhance and advance the field of Puerto Rican Studies.
