Description: This book seeks to contribute to the study of the processes of racialization and the discursive construction of new identities in contemporary Peru. Instead of approaching racism from a cognitive dimension, it is interested in the role that linguistic practices play in its constitution. The ten contributions in this volume examine the discourses and practices of racism in various domains, and discuss the subtle ways in which an "other" is built from an apparently non-racial standpoint, but under underlying rhetoric. All articles address how race in terms of the phenotype has been articulated with other classification criteria, such as education, culture, class, territory, gender, language, among others.
