Becoming Black Political Subjects
After decades of denying racism and underplaying cultural diversity, Latin American states began adopting transformative ethno-racial legislation in the late 1980s. In addition to symbolic recognition of indigenous peoples and black populations, governments in the region created a more pluralistic model of citizenship and made significant reforms in the areas of land, health, education, and development policy. Becoming Black Political Subjects explores this shift from color blindness to ethno-racial legislation in two of the most important cases in the region: Colombia and Brazil. Drawing on archival and ethnographic research, Tianna Paschel shows how, over a short period, black movements an...
Nationalism in the New World
Nationalism in the New World brings together work by scholars from the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Europe to discuss the common problem of how the nations of the Americas grappled with the basic questions of nationalism: Who are we?

In addition, their focus is usually on the violence spawned by ethnic and religious strains of nationalism, which have been largely absent in the Americas. The c...
Explorations on Subjectivity, Borders, and Demarcation
With the pressures of globalization, internationalization of production, migration, and the transmission of information, former concepts of identity and cultural configuration are increasingly challenged.

O leviatã desafiado (Vol. 2)
Analisando a história do mundo de 1946 a 2001, incluindo o atentado de 11 de Setembro, O Leviatã desafiado, de Demétrio Magnoli e Elaine Senise Barbosa é uma completa, reveladora e indispensável investigação sobre este período histórico. Neste segundo volume da trilogia, os autores seguem a discussão sobre o embate entre Liberdade e Igualdade ao analisarem a história da ideias políticas do pós-guerra. “A história das ideias políticas no século XX não serve como comprovação de nenhuma teoria geral sobre a história, não aponta para um destino inelutável nem atesta a verdade absoluta de alguma doutrina ideológica. Contudo, ela não é inútil pois, nas palavras de Kolak...
