Rezensionen

"Wide ranging, ambitious, and exemplary inclusive, this timely volume offers a learned and accessible update to the burgeoning field of Afro-Latin American Studies. The richness of the field is in full display here, in disciplinary, topical, regional, and authorial terms. The result is a singular contribution to collective efforts to center race, racism, and racial stratification in how we study Latin America."

Alejandro de la Fuente, Director of Afro Latin American Research Institute (ALARI), Harvard

"This Handbook is exemplary of how to map a vast field in a single volume. It is the product of a well-crafted project led by two outstanding researchers who conceived a complex cartography of the most salient themes, main historical referents, principal questions, diverse debates, key authors, and plural perspectives in Afro-Latin American Studies. The collection is comprehensive in its breath while maintaining analytical depth. It integrates an impressive variety of research ranging from a genealogy of the field and its elaboration in different disciplines, transversal themes such as: comparative slaveries and maroonage, racial formations and racism, negritude, cultural production (literature, music, religion), social movements (urban and rural), Black feminisms, state racial policies and forms of citizenship, land rights and human rights, and socio-economic conditions of Black peoples through the continent; along with particular histories of Afrodescendents in countries across the whole region; as well as a repertoire of pioneer figures and distinctive dimensions of Afro-Latin American thought. The quality of the chapters and the broad range of coverage makes it the most complete collection of Afro-Latin American Studies available. It should certainly become a fundamental source and necessary reading in the rising field of Afro-Latin American Studies, and as such in the overall transdiscipline of Africana Studies."
