Our new Latin American column

In February we will start a new weekly column in The Economist about Latin America. We are searching for a title for the column, along the lines of Bagehot, Charlemagne or Lexington. Preferably, it has to be a title that has some resonance throughout the region and which fits with The Economist’s broadly liberal outlook. It could be geographical or botanical (eg Aconcagua or kiwicha). It could be mythological (eg. Kukulkan/Quetzalcoatl, whose cult favoured the spread of trade). Or of course it could be a historical figure: Vespucci, Humboldt or Cochrane all have resonance, but were outsiders. Or Bello, Juárez, Miranda, or Tiradentes? We would welcome your thoughts and ideas (and please don’t nominate Bolívar, a great man but a conservative). Please reply to [email protected] by January 3rd 2014.
