Product Information
In Uneven Encounters , Micol Seigel chronicles the exchange of popular culture between Brazil and the United States in the years between the World Wars, and demonstrates how that exchange affected ideas of race and nation in both countries. From Americans interpreting advertisements for Brazilian coffee or dancing the Brazilian maxixe , to Rio musicians embracing the "foreign" qualities of jazz, Seigel traces a lively, cultural back and forth. Along the way, she shows how race and nation for both elites and non-elites are constructed together, and driven by global cultural and intellectual currents as well as local, regional, and national ones. Seigel explores the circulation of images of Brazilian coffee and of maxixe in the United States during the period just after the imperial expansions of the early twentieth century. Exoticist interpretations structured North Americans' paradoxical sense of themselves as productive "consumer citizens." Some people, however, could not simply assume the privileges of citizenship. In their struggles against racism, Afro-descended citizens living in Rio de Janeiro, S o Paulo, New York, and Chicago encountered images and notions of each other, and found them useful. Seigel introduces readers to cosmopolitan Afro-Brazilians and African Americans who rarely traveled far from home but who nonetheless absorbed ideas from abroad. She suggests that studies comparing U.S. and Brazilian racial identities as two distinct constructions are misconceived. Racial formation transcends national borders; attempts to understand it must do the same.

“ Uneven Encounters is a very important contribution not only to the transnational study of racial formation but to the very definition of what transnational scholarship should be.â€�- Mar a Josefina Salda a-Portillo , author of The Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of Development, " Uneven Encounters is a very important contribution not only to the transnational study of racial formation but to the very definition of what transnational scholarship should be."-- Mara Josefina Saldaa-Portillo , author of The Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of Development, "In recent years, the comparative study of race in Brazil and the United States has reached an impasse. Uneven Encounters, rather than reviving these old debates, challenges their very premises. With style and substance, Micol Seigel offers us a searing critique of the comparative method and brilliantly demonstrates how a transnational/cultural approach to race and racial identities can open up genuinely new and productive lines of inquiry."--Barbara Weinstein, author of For Social Peace in Brazil: Industrialists and the Remaking of the Working Class in So Paulo, 1920-1964 "Uneven Encounters is a very important contribution not only to the transnational study of racial formation but to the very definition of what transnational scholarship should be."--Mara Josefina Saldaa-Portillo, author of The Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of Development, "In recent years, the comparative study of race in Brazil and the United States has reached an impasse.

Uneven Encounters , rather than reviving the old debates, challenges their very premises. With style and substance, Micol Seigel offers us a searing critique of the comparative method and brilliantly demonstrates how a transnational and cultural approach to race and racial identities can open up genuinely new and productive lines of inquiry.â€�- Barbara Weinstein , author of For Social Peace in Brazil: Industrialists and the Remaking of the Working Class in S o Paulo, 1920–1964, "Drawing widely from postmodern, postcolonial, feminist, diasporic, and queer studies, Seigel approaches this topic through a bold use of sources, archives, and theoretical approaches, arguing quite convincingly that Afro-Brazilians played an active role in the international circulation of ideas and cultural expressions in the tumultuous 1920s. . . . [An] outstanding study." - James M. Green, American Historical Review, "In recent years, the comparative study of race in Brazil and the United States has reached an impasse. Uneven Encounters, rather than reviving these old debates, challenges their very premises.

[A]n important, thought-provoking book." - Marc A. Hertzman, A Contracorriente, " Uneven Encounters is a very important contribution not only to the transnational study of racial formation but to the very definition of what transnational scholarship should be."- María Josefina Saldaña-Portillo , author of The Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of Development, [M]icol Seigel offers a refreshing analysis of racial perceptions in the USA and Brazil. . . . The contributions of Seigel's are many and to different fields, including history, American, Latin American, cultural and race and ethnic studies. Rather than a comparison of national traits and differences, Seigel's sophisticated study explores the complexities in the encounters between Brazil and the U.S. in the transnational scenery of popular artifacts. It sheds new light on notions of race and nation in Brazil and the U.S. by maintaining that these were forged often in relation to on another., " Uneven Encounters is an imaginative, thoughtful, and eloquently argued work of Atlantic history." - George Reid Andrews, Journal of American History, "In recent years, the comparative study of race in Brazil and the United States has reached an impasse. Uneven Encounters , rather than reviving the old debates, challenges their very premises. With style and substance, Micol Seigel offers us a searing critique of the comparative method and brilliantly demonstrates how a transnational and cultural approach to race and racial identities can open up genuinely new and productive lines of inquiry."-- Barbara Weinstein , author of For Social Peace in Brazil: Industrialists and the Remaking of the Working Class in So Paulo, 1920-1964, " . . .

Hey there! Sorry eBay has been badgering you about data collection, but that negative review goes to my seller account, not to eBay. If there was something wrong with the book/my service I'd be happy to talk about it, but if not I'd appreciate it if you could take out the down review. Thanks! -Patrick-
