Myths of Harmony (eBook, ePUB)

Race and Republicanism during the Age of Revolution, Colombia, 1795-1831

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Myths of Harmony examines a foundational moment for Latin American racial constructs. While most contemporary scholarship has focused the explanation for racial tolerance in the colonial period, Marixa Lasso argues that the origins of modern race relations are to be found later, in the Age of Revolution. Lasso's work brings much-needed attention to the important role of the anticolonial struggles in shaping the nature of contemporary race relations and racial identities in Latin America.
