Frontiers of Citizenship: A Black and Indigenous History of Postcolonial Brazil

Description: Frontiers of Citizenship by Yuko Miki Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description An engaging, innovative history of Brazils black and indigenous people that redefines our understanding of slavery, citizenship, and national identity. This book focuses on the interconnected histories of black and indigenous people on Brazils Atlantic frontier, and makes a case for the frontier as a key space that defined the boundaries and limitations of Brazilian citizenship. Publisher Description Frontiers of Citizenship is an engagingly-written, innovative history of Brazils black and indigenous people that redefines our understanding of slavery, citizenship, and the origins of Brazils racial democracy. Through groundbreaking archival research that brings the stories of slaves, Indians, and settlers to life, Yuko Miki challenges the widespread idea that Brazilian Indians disappeared during the colonial era, paving the way for the birth of Latin Americas largest black nation. Focusing on the postcolonial settlement of the Atlantic frontier and Rio de Janeiro, Miki argues that the exclusion and inequality of indigenous and African-descended people became embedded in the very construction of Brazils remarkably inclusive nationhood. She demonstrates that to understand the full scope of central themes in Latin American history - race and national identity, unequal citizenship, popular politics, and slavery and abolition - one must engage the histories of both the African diaspora and the indigenous Americas. Author Biography Yuko Miki is Assistant Professor of History and affiliated faculty of Latin American and Latino Studies at Fordham University, New York. Her work has been awarded the Best Article Prize from the Latin American Studies Association (LASA) Brazil Section and the Coordinating Council on Womens History.
