Reviews
“Racial Revolutions is a deeply thoughtful and highly accessible analysis of contemporary racism. Jonathan Warren combines a highly developed research design, a powerful synthesis of crucial modern and postmodern theoretical frameworks, and a strong commitment to racial justice. This book will have important influence, not only on anthropology and studies of race, but on our understandings of indigenous cultures and movements, on our view of Brazil, and on our understanding of ourselves.”—Howard Winant, author of The World is a Ghetto: Race and Democracy since World War II
“This is an original work that will be welcomed by all those interested in Brazil and in the Indian question in Latin America. Very well written, engaging, and successful in conveying the world and the voices of the actors, Racial Revolutions is indeed a pleasurable read.”—Leon Zamosc, University of California, San Diego
“Jonathan W. Warren moves beyond an overly narrow, black and white conceptualization of Brazil’s racial politics by broadening the scope of scholarly attention to consider the contemporary struggles of Brazil’s self-identified Indians. . . . Racial Revolutions illuminates an understudied domain of contemporary Brazilian racial politics, making an important contribution to the literature on race in Brazil and to the more general comparative literature in this field.”
-- Mara Loveman Contemporary Sociology
"Jonathan Warren has written a provocative, no-holds-barred appeal to incorporate Brazil's eastern Indians into scholarship about race and antiracist activism. . . . Racial Revolutions begins to fill a Brazilian void in the growing U.S.-produced anthropological literature about mixed-race peoples and their indigenous roots throughout Latin America. . . . A stimulating book, well suited for undergraduate teaching about race and ethnicity in Latin America."
-- Jan Hoffman French Hispanic American Historical Review
Warren details a nuanced process of an Indian resurgence and antiracism. This book is a must for those studying Brazilian racial issues. Furthermore, scholars of indigenous communities, social movements, and those interested in ethnogenesis and racial formation in general would find this book of interest."
-- Stanley R. Bailey American Journal of Sociology
