Book Description

August 1, 1995 Johns Hopkins Studies in Atlantic History and Culture

Drawing on extensive anthropological fieldwork, Peter Wade shows how the concept of "blackness" and discrimination are deeply embedded in different social levels and contexts—from region to neighborhood, and from politics and economics to housing, marriage, music, and personal identity.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Wade's insistence on analytic issues throughout makes it impossible to read this as a book simply about race relations in Colombia. A major contribution to several fields of scholarship.
