dc.description.abstract
The article links reflections about Brazilian race relations with
institutional transnational dialogues between Brazil and ‘Africa’. I point out
that although racial/cultural mixture and the ‘brown’ census category have
traditionally reflected much of national identity in Brazil, Brazil today is
increasingly spelling out its blackness, both on the national and
international scenes. This is happening at a historical moment when programs
of ‘black’ affirmative action and other differential politics in favor of
Afro-descendants are taking off in the country, and also at a time when Brazil
is expanding its geopolitical and economic interests in Africa, by and large
under the name of ‘South-South cooperation’. By my analysis, I suggest that
while Africa is an interesting terrain for Brazilian geopolitical expansion
and leadership in the South Atlantic, these transatlantic links may also
represent a new frontier for the study of race relations in Brazil.
