Highly recommended. - CHOICE An excellent and up-to-date overview of black social movements in Latin America. The chapters give detailed insight into the complex and contradictory relationships of these movements with diverse levels of the state, illustrating some of the gains made since the 1990s and highlighting how much further there is still to go in the face of powerful forces of cooptation, continued marginalization and, in some cases, outright violence. - Peter Wade, University of Manchester, UK This book is a critical intervention in current history, charting the consequences of advancing neoliberalism for Latin American identity politics and documenting the transition from mestizaje, or cultural and 'racial' mixing, to the emergence of multiculturalism in the region's national imaginaries, state structures, and forms of governmentality. The editor and contributors locate the struggles of Afrodescendant groups for rights and recognition in sophisticated approaches that simultaneously consider the material and ideological as well as the national, regional, and international levels of cause and consequence. And they do so with a clear vision and without romanticizing the new ostensibly inclusive multicultural discourses. As such, this book provides a crucial guide to the current scene. - Kevin A.
