The Politics of Identity in Latin American Censuses contributes new
and original perspectives to existing discussions about the shaping
of multiculturalist ideology in Latin America, its interweaving
with the cultural politics of neoliberalism and the relation
between ethnic identification resurgence and economic
globalization. Scrutinising national censuses across the continent,
the studies included in this volume reveal clear relationships
between censuses, nation-building and government projects, but also
strong and determinant connections between domestic and
supra-national spheres. The contributors to this volume open
provocative avenues of research on Latin American societies by
demonstrating how, in the realm of identity politics,
supra-national institutions and normativity socialise national
census bureaus in a way that largely annuls ideological differences
between regional governments. This book was originally published as
a special issue of the Journal of Iberian and Latin American
Research.
