Abstract

REPORT ON THE VI LATIN AMERICAN CONGRESS ON RELIGION AND ETHNICITY AND THE MEETING OF THE COLOMBIAN INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF RELIGION JUNE 10-14, 1996 ROSALIND I. J.

The Colombian Institute of Anthropology was our host for a most enjoyable and productive conference. The meetings were held in the very attractive, modem Biblioteca Luis Angel Arango in the oldest part of Bogota, known as the Candelaria.
