Rutgers University Pressc20111 online resource (142 p.)Includes an English translation of Vasconcelos' "Mestizaje" from his The cosmic race and his lecture "The race problem in Latin America", one of three Harris Foundation lectures originally delivered at the University of Chicago in 1926.0-8135-5063-7 Includes bibliographical references.Frontmatter -- Contents -- Preface -- The Prophet of Race -- Mestizaje -- The Race Problem in Latin America -- Chronology -- Acknowledgments Mexican educator and thinker Jose Vasconcelos is to Latinos what W.E.B. Du Bois is to African Americans--a controversial scholar who fostered an alternative view of the future. In Josè Vasconcelos: The Prophet of Race, his influential 1925 essay, "Mestizaje" key to understanding the role he played in the shaping of multiethnic America--is for the first time showcased and properly analyzed. Freshly translated here by John H. R. Polt, "Mestizaje" suggested that the Brown Race from Latin America was called to dominate the world, a thesis embraced by activists and scholars north and south of the Rio Grande. Ilan Stavans insightfully and comprehensively examines the essay in biographical and historical context, and considers how many in the United States, especially Chicanos during the civil rights era, used it as a platform for their political agenda. The volume also includes Vasconcelos's long-forgotten 1926 Harris Foundation Lecture at the University of Chicago, "The Race Problem in Latin America," where he cautioned the United States that rejecting mestizaje in our own midst will ultimately bankrupt the nation.MestizosMestizajeCosmologyLatin AmericaRace relationsElectronic books.Mestizos.Mestizaje.Cosmology.305.80098Stavans Ilan553432Vasconcelos José1881-1959.1038700Vasconcelos José1881-1959.1038700MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457900303321José Vasconcelos2460449UNINA01486nam a2200313 i 4500991001877209707536061006s2006 riua b 100 0 eng d0821837559 (alk. paper)9780821837559b13441371-39ule_instDip.to MatematicaengAMS 44-06LC QA672.A474AMS Special Session on Tomography and Integral Geometry<2004 :Rider University>624365Integral geometry and tomography :AMS Special Session on Tomography and Integral Geometry, Rider University, Lawrenceville, New Jersey, April 17-18, 2004 /Andrew Markoe, Eric Todd Quinto, editorsProvidence, R.
