The essays examine political discourse, mass media discourse, textbooks and other forms of text, and talk by the white symbolic elites, looking at the ways these discourses express and confirm prejudices against indigenous people and against people from African descent. The essays show that ethnic and racial inequality in Latin America continue to exacerbate the chasm between the rich and the poor, despite formal progress in the rights of minorities during the last decades. Teun A. van Dijk brings together a multidisciplinary team of linguists and social scientists from eight Latin American countries (Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Peru), creating the first work in English that provides comprehensive insight into discursive racism across Latin America.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 231mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 526gBook Series: Perspectives on a Multiracial AmericaRelease Year: 2009 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
