The Latin American Research Review (LARR) is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes original research and surveys of current research on Latin America and the Caribbean.

LARR was founded in 1965 by a consortium of U.S. universities. When the Latin American Studies Association (LASA) was established the following year, LARR and LASA merged, with the journal becoming the association's official scholarly journal. Starting at UT-Austin in 1965, the editorship moved to the University of North Carolina in 1974, and then to the University of New Mexico in 1982 before returning to the University of Texas at Austin in 2003.

In 2006 Dr. Philip Oxhorn at McGill University was awarded the editorship and the University of Pittsburgh Press was awarded the publishing contract, with the first issue (Volume 43, Issue 1) slated for publication in the winter of 2008.
