RUETTE ORIHUELA, Krisna. "We are Afro-socialists": frameworks for collective action and ethnoracialization of Afro-Yaracuyan rural movement in Veroes, Venezuela. Tabula Rasa [online]. 2014, n.21, pp.351-368. ISSN 1794-2489.

This paper analyzes the processes of ethno-racialization of the afro-Yaracuyan rural movement in the state of Yaracuy, in Venezuela. Following an ethnographic approach, we study how territorial organizations in this movement have given rise to new frameworks for collective action intending to mobilize both ethno-racial identities and productive/ peasant identities. Similarly, we address how the various ethnical and racial positions by social actors are in continuous articulation with the discourses and policies of Bolivarian multiculturalism. We suggest the construction of ethno-racial difference around "afrodescent" is not only under discussion but also is mediated by the political discourses and political imaginaries of the Venezuelan socialist project.

Palavras-chave : ethno-racialization; frameworks for collective action; rural movements; afrodescendants; Venezuela.
