I <scp>n</scp> D <scp>ialogue:</scp> <i>Introducing a New Section of</i> The Americas

With this issue, The Americas inaugurates a new section, In Dialogue , dedicated to fostering scholarly exchange through the publication of clusters of articles that speak directly to one another. This format is designed as a space between a traditional special issue and the standard publication of individual research articles. By presenting paired or grouped pieces that clearly intersect, we hope to highlight conversations already emerging across historical fields, disciplines, geographies, and methodological approaches.
