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. HACKETT Bogota, Colombia, provided the venue for the first of the biennial congresses of the Asociacion Latinoamericana para el Estudio de las Religiones (Latin American Association for the Study of Religions) to be held outside Mexico. 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. It was a pleasure to stroll out at lunchtime and sample the excellent Afro-Colombian fish restaurants in the neighborhood and watch the crowds milling around, occasionally protesting, in the Bolivar Square in front of the Presidential Palace and Cathedral. More than 300 people attended the conference (which actually began the previous week with a pre-conference seminar) with 190 papers presented. Most participants came from Central or South America-Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecua- dor, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela-with some from Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United States. There were sixteen symposia with plenary sessions
