Abstract

The chapter draws a critical picture of the idea of race and modernity in the Caribbean discourse, taking into consideration the English-speaking, Spanish-speaking and French speaking contexts. It highlights the Haitian context of the nineteenth century with the special publications of Anténor Firmin, Pan-Africanism, the Cuban and Dominican contexts, Antillanity, Creolization, Negritude, Haitian Indigenism, and the relationship between race and political theory in the English-speaking context through the thought of Charles V. Mills. The chapter allows us to understand not only the history of the race and political theory in the region but also stresses the different mutations of the Caribbean discourse regarding race and modernity.
