The Theory of Recognition and Multicultural Policies in Colombia and New Zealand
This book analyses the policies of recognition that were developed and implemented to improve the autonomy and socio-economic well-being of Māori in New Zealand and of indigenous and Afro-descendent people in Colombia. It offers a theoretically informed explanation of the reasons why these policies have not yielded the expected results, and offers solutions to mitigate the shortcomings of policies of recognition in both countries. This in-depth analysis enables readers to develop their understanding of the theory of recognition and how it can promote social justice.
Language Isolates I: Aikanã to Kandozi-Shapra
The series Handbooks of Linguistics and Communication Science is designed to illuminate a field which not only includes general linguistics and the study of linguistics as applied to specific languages, but also covers those more recent areas which have developed from the increasing body of research into the manifold forms of communicative action and interaction.
El racismo escolar
La escuela es un escenario esencial de socialización política. En ella aprendemos a reconocer, valorar y representar la sociedad que habitamos. Durante varias décadas se ha mostrado el papel central que juega esta institución y sus dispositivos de saber en la reproducción de estereotipos y estigmatizaciones relacionadas con la racialización de las personas afrodescendientes. La experiencia del racismo es uno de los mayores actos de vulneración de la dignidad humana, sobre todo cuando se ejerce sobre niñas y niños pequeños. En este libro retomamos las lecciones y aprendizajes de quince años de trabajo investigativo sobre el racismo en la escuela colombiana y sus impactos más signi...

Mining, Mobility, and Social Change in the Global South
This volume focuses on how, why, under what conditions, and with what effects people move across space in relation to mining, asking how a focus on spatial mobility can aid scholars and policymakers in understanding the complex relation between mining and social change. This collection centers the concept of mobility to address the diversity of mining-related population movements as well as the agency of people engaged in these movements. This volume opens by introducing both the historical context and conceptual tools for analyzing the mining-mobility nexus, followed by case study chapters focusing on three regions with significant histories of mineral extraction and where mining currently ...
Poesía afrocolombiana
Esta publicación es una invitación al lector colombiano, así como a todos los hispanoamericanos, a leer en las páginas de este libro la convivencia de nuestras lenguas hermanas en su mejor forma: el canto, la poesía. Al lector brasileño, le ofrece un panorama de la poesía escrita en Colombia, del siglo XIX al XXI, por poetas afrodescendientes, en la lengua de los autores y en traducción al portugués brasileño. Cabe recordar que, además del origen hispánico de sus lenguas oficiales, Colombia y Brasil comparten la condición de países con mayor población negra de América Latina.
Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies
This Handbook provides a comprehensive roadmap to the burgeoning area of Afro-Latin American Studies. Afro-Latins as a civilization developed during the period of slavery, obtaining cultural contributions from Indigenous and European worlds, while today they are enriched by new social configurations derived from contemporary migrations from Africa. The essays collected in this volume speak to scientific production that has been promoted in the region from the humanities and social sciences with the aim of understanding the phenomenon of the African diaspora as a specific civilizing element. With contributions from world-leading figures in their fields overseen by an eminent international editorial board, this Handbook features original, authoritative articles organized in four coherent parts: • Disciplinary Studies; • Problem Focused Fields; • Regional and Country Approaches; • Pioneers of Afro-Latin American Studies. The Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies will not only serve as the major reference text in the area of Afro-Latin American Studies but will also provide the agenda for future new research.
Handbook of Home Language Maintenance and Development
Even a cursory look at conference programs and proceedings reveals a burgeoning interest in the field of social and affective factors in home language maintenance and development. To date, however, research on this topic has been published in piecemeal fashion, subsumed under the more general umbrella of ‘bilingualism’. Within bilingualism research, there has been an extensive exploration of linguistic and psycholinguistic perspectives on the one hand, and educational practices and outcomes on the other. In comparison, social and affective factors – which lead people to either maintain or shift the language – have been under-researched. This is the first volume that brings together t...
