Launch of New Book Series: Afro-Latin@ Diasporas

8/6/2013

Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan
Series Editors: Juan Flores, Miriam Jiménez Román and Natasha Gordon-Chipembere


This book series aims to gather scholarly and creative writing on the African diasporic experience in Latin America, the Caribbean and the United States. The editors welcome book-length manuscripts addressing all aspects of Afro-Latin@ life and cultural expression throughout the hemisphere, with a strong focus on U.S. Latin@s of African descent. We will also consider relevant work on the transnational Brazilian and Haitian experience.

We will be considering manuscripts in any and all humanities and social science disciplines, as well as a wide range of interdisciplinary approaches. The peer-reviewed series will also include fictional and poetic work, though the emphasis will be on critical historical and sociological analysis on a broad range of topics, including religion, history, literature, theory, biography, and scholarship in sociology, politics, and economics. We especially welcome works on issues of class, gender and sexuality, in addition to studies of the transnational Afro-Latin@ experience. Publications will be in English, but we will also consider work in Spanish (subject to author’s securing of resources for translation into English).

The series editors would also be pleased to consider proposals for books. If you have an idea for a relevant book project, we invite you to submit a proposal which includes your name, title, institutional affiliation (if applicable), and mailing address, as well as a 3-4 page prospectus, table of contents, and if possible at least one sample chapter.

Please send all enquiries to the editors at: afrolatinodiasporas@gmail.com
