"Black Social Movements in Brazil: The State, Political Identity and Visions for the Future" Paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Sociological Association, Marriott Hotel, Loews Philadelphia Hotel, Philadelphia, PA, Aug 12, 2005 Online <PDF>. 2009-11-24 <http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p21024_index.html>Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript
Abstract: This exploratory project examines the development of Afro-Brazilian protest politics. I review the existing explanations for the relative lack of black movement formations in Brazil and offer a critique of state centered explanations of race based movements. Using event data and newspaper articles about race in Brazil, I explore patterns and trends in Afro-Brazilian politics from 1985-2000 in an attempt to understand the level and nature of protest politics among black Brazilians. |
