The growing research in translation in Latin America has played an important role in consolidating the discipline in our field and in acknowledging the work of translator-writers who remained invisible due to several reasons. Such research is performed not only in Latin America but in other countries where scholars are showing a growing interest in our work. Moreover, there is a concern in Latin America to study European and North American translation. From a forced or self imposed exile, Latin American writers and thinkers who have settled in other continents have devoted to study the translation phenomenon since former times in Europe; they have also disclosed abroad the Latin American work performed. The construction of Latin American interest in African and Asian cultures and vice-versa, with respect to translation, is a slow process: let this invitation be an opportunity to motivate it.
