"The Struggle of Non-Sovereign Caribbean Territories is an essay collection made up of two sections; in the first, a group of Anglophone and francophone scholars examines the roots, effects and implications of the major social upheaval that shook Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, and Réunion in February and March of 2009. They clearly demonstrate the critical role played by community activism, art and media to combat politico-economic policies that generate (un)employment, labor exploitation, and unattended health risks, all made secondary to the supremacy of profit. In the second section, additional scholars provide in-depth analyses of the ways in which an insistence on capital accumulation and centralization instantiated broad hierarchies of market-driven profit, capital accumulation, and economic exploitation upon a range of populations and territories in the wider non-sovereign and nominally sovereign Caribbean from Haiti to the Dutch Antilles to Puerto Rico, reinforcing the racialized patterns of socioeconomic exclusion and privatization long imposed by France on its former colonial territories"--

Reflet des débats actuels dans les champs croisés des Études afro-américaines et des Études diasporiques, ces essais critiques et études de cas explorent l’articulation entre les concepts fluctuants de « race » et de diaspora et les négociations des identités au-delà des différences. Ils étudient tour à tour l’évolution de l’(inter)nationalisme noir au sein de la Diaspora, les nouveaux discours sur la post-racialité et la notion de « postblackness », la conscience raciale chez les soldats afro-américains, l’expatriation et la re-diasporisation. Le constat d’un rejet de l’africanité au sein de sociétés telles que les Émirats, le Maroc ou la République dominicaine entre en relation avec les analyses d’œuvres d’art au prisme d’une conscience diasporique et de textes littéraires qui disent l’internationalisme ou subvertissent la notion de « race ». James Baldwin dialogue alors avec Percival Everett. Reflecting current debates in the intersecting fields of African American Studies and African Diaspora, these critical essays and case studies explore the articulation between the fluctuating concepts of ‘race’ and Diaspora and the negotiations of identities across differences. They examine in turn the developments of diasporic black (inter)nationalism, new discourses on ‘postraciality’ and ‘postblackness’, race consciousness among African American soldiers, expatriation and re-diasporization. The acknowledgement of a rejection of Africanness in societies such as the Emirates, Morocco or the Dominican Republic dialogues with examinations of artwork through the lenses of a diasporic consciousness and analyses of literary texts that celebrate internationalism or subvert the notion of ‘race’. James Baldwin thus converses with Percival Everett.
