This book identifies and engages with an analysis of racism in the Caribbean region, providing an empirically-based theoretical reframing of both the racialization of the globe and the evaluation of the prospects for anti-racism and the post-racial. The 30 contemporary territories of the Caribbean and their differing colonial and post-colonial contexts provide a highly dynamic setting that urges a reassessment of the ways in which contemporary processes of racialization are working. Tate and Law seek to develop a new account of racialization in this region, challenging established arguments, propositions and narratives of racial Caribbeanization. With new insights into contemporary forms of racialization in Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Haiti, this will be essential reading for scholars of race and ethnicity. -- cover

Die Theoretisierung von Hybridität in postcolonial studies schließt zumeist die Analyse von Alltagssituationen aus. Ausnahme bilden hier die Forschungsarbeiten zur kulturellen Produktion von MigrantInnen und zur Konsumkultur im Sinne des "den Anderen aufessen". Dieser Aufsatz geht von der Untersuchung von Hybridität als "im Alltag praktisch hergestellt" aus und untersucht dies am Beispiel einer diskursiven Interaktionsanalyse von Gesprächen über Identität zwischen schwarzen "mixed race" Frauen in Großbritannien. Die hier vorgestellte Analysemethode versteht sich als "Übersetzungsprozess", der als diskursive ethnomethodologische Analyse (eda) FOUCAULT und BAKHTIN miteinander verbindet, um die Verhandlungen und Artikulationen von Hybridität im Alltag schwarzer Frauen zu "ent-decken". Hybridität wird dabei als reflexive Bewegung des "Übersetzens" von Diskursen zu Identitätspositionen verstanden, die für die Gesprächsteilnehmerinnen Identifikationsmomente im Gespräch darstellen. FOUCAULTs Diskurskonzept und BAKHTINs Heteroglosia und "Adressivität" (addressivity) ermöglichen es, diese Bewegung in den Gesprächen mittels der ethnomethodologischen "Übersetzung" theoretisch zu fassen. Ausgehend von den theoretischen Konvergenzen und Divergenzen zwischen FOUCAULT und BAKHTIN werden die Konzepte Subjekt, Identität und Diskurs mittels "eda" empirisch rekonstruiert. Die genaue empirische Sicht durch die Lupe der eda erlaubt es, Subjektpositionen, die die Sprecherinnen als Beschränkung oder Ermöglichung ihrer Aktionen oder Erfahrungen identifizieren und in ihren Gesprächen "verhandeln", als Effekte von Subjektivierungsprozessen zu deuten.

"Shirley Anne Tate beschäftigt sich in ihrem Beitrag mit dem Phänomen des Rassismus. Tates Beitrag befasst sich mit einer Form der Gouvernementalität, die nicht von Regierungsprogrammatiken ausgeht, sondern eher auf der Ebene von interaktionalen und alltäglichen Praktiken in der Entstehung von Selbstverhältnissen statthat. Im Zentrum ihrer Betrachtung steht die black community und ihre diskursive Herstellung in Großbritannien. Der Staat ist nach Tate nicht nur ein politisches oder administratives Gebilde, sondern im besonderen Maße ein kulturelles. In diesem Sinne spricht sie von Gouvernementalität als dem staatlichen Projekt der moralischen Regulierung. Diese Regulierung ist darauf gerichtet, mannigfaltige Gruppenerfahrungen auf eine einheitliche und vereinigende Praxis zu reduzieren. Die Rolle des Staates und der Einfluss performativer Diskurse, so meint Tate, könne bei der Universalisierung (universalization) durch die Bezeichnung black community nicht vernachlässigt werden. Denn vor diesem Hintergrund agieren bürgerliche Institutionen und soziale Gruppen als erzieherische Kräfte und tragen zur Formierung von Bürgern und Minderheiten bei. Die black community müsse daher als Gemeinschaftskörper so regieren, dass sie in das Denken und die Praxis der Akteure als moralischer Imperativ eingreife. Doch fier Tate ist die black community nicht nur ein Ort staatlicher Kontrolle, vielmehr ist sie auch ein Ort des Ausprobierens und des Erlebens eines widersprüchlichen und vielfältigen Alltags. Im Anschluss an diese Beobachtung fragt Tate mit Homi K. Bhabha danach, ob eine Poetik beziehungsweise Repräsentationsbasis außerhalb staatlicher und gesellschaftlich dominanter Darstellungsformen statthaben kann, in der die Repräsentation einer interstitiellen Gemeinschaft als performativer Raum sowie entsprechende Praktiken von Uneindeutigkeit ermöglicht werden."

This book assesses the nature and extent of the project of deracialisation required to counter the contemporary dynamics of racialisation across four varieties of modernity: Sweden, South Africa, Brazil and the UK, based on original research on each of the four country contexts. Since racism began to be recognised or identified as a problem, an assemblage of supra-national initiatives have been devised in the name of combatting, dismantling or reducing it. There has been a recent shift whereby such supra-national bodies move toward embedding strategies against racism within the framework of human rights and devolving such responsibility to other bodies at a national level. The authors bring together a team of international experts in this field, in order to compare the priorities and effectiveness of current strategic approaches in each national context, examining their relationalities and connecting these cases within a joint theoretical and methodological framework. Thus, this book contributes to theoretical knowledge on racialisation and deracialisation, produce a new data set on contemporary interventions and institutions and establish new principles and practice for national projects of deracialisation and anti-racism, building on cross-national learning
