An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool
University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the
Opening the Future project with COPIM. Empire Found: Racial
Identities and Coloniality in Twenty-First Century Portuguese
Popular Cultures examines how the discourses and narratives of
Portuguese imperial exceptionalism and Portuguese racial identity,
developed during the last centuries of Portuguese settler
colonialism continue to inform an array of cultural production and
consumption in the four decades since decolonization. By examining
a range of contemporary popular cultural production (literature,
football, musical production, and celebrity culture) in critical
conversation with intellectual production of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, Empire Found examines how narratives of
Portuguese racial hybridity and indeterminacy operate alongside
ongoing structures of coloniality and white supremacy in the realms
of cultural production. I argue that these implied or overt
historical dialogues carried out through cultural production are
integral to the very reproduction of the Portuguese nation-state
apparatus, as well as its racial structures and claims to whiteness
in the wake of decolonization and marginal integration into the
European Union.
