What is Foundations, US Foreign Policy and Anti-Racism in Brazil : Pushing Racial Democracy about?

This book connects the work of US private foundations, the US government,and Brazilian intellectuals to explore how they worked collaboratively toaddress racial disparities in Brazil during the Cold War. It reveals not onlyhow anti-racism was promoted during this period, shaping the political andacademic agenda, but also the importance of American foundations, espe-cially the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, in the process.Drawing on a vast array of archival and published sources from Brazil,the United States, and around the world, the book investigates the makingof transnational connections and networks that sought to respond to the“race problem”, seen as an increasingly dangerous threat to the liberal inter-national order.This book is especially relevant to the areas of Race Studies, SocialSciences, Latin-American Studies, Political Science and History, particu-larly the History of Sociology and Anthropology, as well as to studies aboutthe role of American foundations in the Cold War period. It will also beof interest to activists, social scientists, economists, historians, journalists,NGOs, and INGOs.Elizabeth Cancelli is a History professor at the University of São Paulo (USP)
