Resumen
REID ANDREWS, George. REMEMBERING AFRICA, INVENTING URUGUAY: SOCIEDADES DE NEGROS IN THE MONTEVIDEO CARNIVAL, 1865-1930. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2007, n.26, pp.86-104. ISSN 0123-885X.
The article studies the historical process by which African and European music and dances merged into the so-called “national rhythms”, building national identities in Latin America. Such process implied complex negotiations for each country, in terms of race, ethnicity, gender and social classes. As an example, the author deals with the national rhythm best-known as candombe uruguayo, key piece in the Annual Montevideo Carnival since mid-1800's.
