The Susan M. Socolow and Lyman L. Johnson Chile-R\u00edo de la Plata book prize was established in 2018. It carries a stipend of $500. The prize is awarded biennially to the book judged to make the most significant contribution to the history of the following countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Books appearing in the two calendar years just preceding may be considered for a given year\u2019s award. Hence, items published in 2024 and 2025 will be considered for the award year 2026 (awarded at the meeting in January 2027).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Socolow-Johnson Committee will consider only those items nominated by CLAH members or by publishers. Publishers must provide copies of items nominated to all committee members. Members of the prize committee may include any items they feel appropriate in the list of works considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In exceptional cases, the book award committee may decide on co-winners. The co-winners will split the prize. In such cases, there would not be an honorable mention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
